Compute the typical properties of a star of known type given another property value
ResourceFunction["ParameterizedStarData"][quant, stype] gives typical properties for a star of type stype constrained by the parameterizing quantity quant. | |
ResourceFunction["ParameterizedStarData"][quant, stype, prop] gives typical property prop for a star of type stype constrained by the parameterizing quantity quant. |
Compute the luminosity of a 50 solar mass Ia supergiant star:
In[1]:= |
Out[1]= |
Compute the absolute bolometric magnitude of a 5 solar mass main sequence star:
In[2]:= |
Out[2]= |
Compute the end state of a 2 solar mass main sequence star:
In[3]:= |
Out[3]= |
Compute the typical properties of a 1 solar radius star:
In[4]:= |
Out[4]= |
The "Star" entity type can provide curated properties for known stars:
In[5]:= |
Out[5]= |
Results from ParameterizedStarData correspond to typical values of such properties, but may not exactly match the values for a specific star of the same type:
In[6]:= |
Out[6]= |
Extreme stars such as supergiants can also be queried from the "Star" entity type:
In[7]:= |
Out[7]= |
The typical values for such stars have more spread in their possible values so the results from ParameterizedStarData may deviate more significantly compared to a less extreme star, but should still be of the same order of magnitude:
In[8]:= |
Out[8]= |
The mass of a 1 solar mass Ia supergiant star cannot be computed because no such stars exist:
In[9]:= |
Out[9]= |
