Solar-Type Activity in
Main-
Sequence Stars
"In the monograph by R.E.Gershberg "The solar-type activity amongst the main sequence stars" results of study of the solar-type activity, that is inherent in majority of low- and middle-mass main sequence stars, its manifestations both ...

Horizons: Exploring the Universe
... thermostat is set lower. To sum up, massive stars are more luminous because
they must make more energy to support more weight. The mass-luminosity
relation tells you why the main sequence must have a lower end.

This is a complete overview of the state of the art in the study of very-low-mass stars, especially brown dwarfs.

Measuring the Universe: The Cosmological Distance Ladder
The second query is: how much confidence can we place in the calibrated main
sequence? We now know the distance to the Hyades cluster very accurately, and
so we know the absolute magnitude of the Hyades stars. But the Hyades is quite
...

In particular, the main-sequence lifetimes of the heaviest stars turn out to be
virtually independent of M, and are in the neighborhood of a few million years.
Stars less massive than about 2MQ fuse hydrogen into helium by the proton-

Astrophysical Concepts: 3rd edition
Detailed calculations based on model stars, and on the rates at which the nuclear
reactions would proceed in them, indicate that stars just turning off the main
sequence in h + x Persei cannot be more than two million years old. In contrast,
the ...

Astronomy: A Physical Perspective
The changeover is not a sudden one, as the material closer to the center heats
faster. Eventually, enough energy is generated internally for the collapse to halt.
When this happens, the star reaches a stable condition. It is on the main
sequence ...
