- Lacerta
A-type main-sequence star
An A-type main-sequence star (A) or A dwarf star is a main-sequence (hydrogen burning) star of spectral type A and luminosity class (five). 9 Lacertae and a-type main-sequence star are a-type main-sequence stars.
See 9 Lacertae and A-type main-sequence star
Apparent magnitude
Apparent magnitude is a measure of the brightness of a star or other astronomical object.
See 9 Lacertae and Apparent magnitude
Constellation
A constellation is an area on the celestial sphere in which a group of visible stars forms a perceived pattern or outline, typically representing an animal, mythological subject, or inanimate object.
See 9 Lacertae and Constellation
Effective temperature
The effective temperature of a body such as a star or planet is the temperature of a black body that would emit the same total amount of electromagnetic radiation.
See 9 Lacertae and Effective temperature
Fraunhofer lines
The Fraunhofer lines are a set of spectral absorption lines.
See 9 Lacertae and Fraunhofer lines
Hydrogen spectral series
The emission spectrum of atomic hydrogen has been divided into a number of spectral series, with wavelengths given by the Rydberg formula.
See 9 Lacertae and Hydrogen spectral series
Lacerta
Lacerta is one of the 88 modern constellations defined by the International Astronomical Union.
Light-year
A light-year, alternatively spelled light year (ly or lyr), is a unit of length used to express astronomical distances and is equal to exactly 9,460,730,472,580.8 km (Scientific notation: 9.4607304725808 × 1012 km), which is approximately 5.88 trillion mi.
Metallicity
In astronomy, metallicity is the abundance of elements present in an object that are heavier than hydrogen and helium.
See 9 Lacertae and Metallicity
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society (MNRAS) is a peer-reviewed scientific journal in astronomy, astrophysics and related fields.
See 9 Lacertae and Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society
Photosphere
The photosphere is a star's outer shell from which light is radiated.
See 9 Lacertae and Photosphere
Radial velocity
The radial velocity or line-of-sight velocity of a target with respect to an observer is the rate of change of the vector displacement between the two points.
See 9 Lacertae and Radial velocity
Solar luminosity
The solar luminosity is a unit of radiant flux (power emitted in the form of photons) conventionally used by astronomers to measure the luminosity of stars, galaxies and other celestial objects in terms of the output of the Sun.
See 9 Lacertae and Solar luminosity
Solar mass
The solar mass is a standard unit of mass in astronomy, equal to approximately.
Solar radius
Solar radius is a unit of distance used to express the size of stars in astronomy relative to the Sun.
See 9 Lacertae and Solar radius
Star
A star is a luminous spheroid of plasma held together by self-gravity.
Stellar classification
In astronomy, stellar classification is the classification of stars based on their spectral characteristics.
See 9 Lacertae and Stellar classification
Stellar rotation
Stellar rotation is the angular motion of a star about its axis.
See 9 Lacertae and Stellar rotation
