Apparent magnitude
Apparent magnitude is a measure of the brightness of a star or other astronomical object.
See V Cephei and Apparent magnitude
Cepheus (constellation)
Cepheus is a constellation in the deep northern sky, named after Cepheus, a king of Aethiopia in Greek mythology.
See V Cephei and Cepheus (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 V Cephei and Effective temperature
Main sequence
In astronomy, the main sequence is a classification of stars which appear on plots of stellar color versus brightness as a continuous and distinctive band.
See V Cephei and Main sequence
Seth Carlo Chandler
Seth Carlo Chandler, Jr. (September 16, 1846 – December 31, 1913) was an American astronomer, geodesist, and actuary.
See V Cephei and Seth Carlo Chandler
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.
Variable star
A variable star is a star whose brightness as seen from Earth (its apparent magnitude) changes with time.
See V Cephei and Variable star
