Difference between Arcturus and Horizontal branch

Arcturus vs. Horizontal branch

|- bgcolor. The horizontal branch (HB) is a stage of stellar evolution that immediately follows the red giant branch in stars whose masses are similar to the Sun's.

Similarities between Arcturus and Horizontal branch

Arcturus and Horizontal branch have 7 things in common (in Unionpedia): Apparent magnitude, Helium flash, Red-giant branch, Star, Stellar evolution, Sun, The Astronomical Journal.

Apparent magnitude

The apparent magnitude of a celestial object is a number that is a measure of its brightness as seen by an observer on Earth.

Helium flash

A helium flash is a very brief thermal runaway nuclear fusion of large quantities of helium into carbon through the triple-alpha process in the core of low mass stars (between 0.8 solar masses and 2.0) during their red giant phase (the Sun is predicted to experience a flash 1.2 billion years after it leaves the main sequence).

Red-giant branch

The red-giant branch (RGB), sometimes called the first giant branch, is the portion of the giant branch before helium ignition occurs in the course of stellar evolution.
