Difference between Beta Cephei and Main sequence

Beta Cephei vs. Main sequence

Beta Cephei (β Cephei, abbreviated Beta Cep, β Cep), also named Alfirk, is a third magnitude star in the constellation of Cepheus. In astronomy, the main sequence is a continuous and distinctive band of stars that appear on plots of stellar color versus brightness.

Similarities between Beta Cephei and Main sequence

Beta Cephei and Main sequence have 7 things in common (in Unionpedia): Apparent magnitude, Beta Cephei variable, Cepheid variable, Helium, Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, Star, Stellar classification.

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.

Beta Cephei variable

Beta Cephei variables, also known as Beta Canis Majoris stars, are variable stars that exhibit small rapid variations in their brightness due to pulsations of the stars' surfaces, thought due to the unusual properties of iron at temperatures of 200,000 K in their interiors.

Cepheid variable

A Cepheid variable is a type of star that pulsates radially, varying in both diameter and temperature and producing changes in brightness with a well-defined stable period and amplitude.
