Difference between Hypergiant and V509 Cassiopeiae

Hypergiant vs. V509 Cassiopeiae

A hypergiant (luminosity class 0 or Ia+) is among the very rare kinds of stars that typically show tremendous luminosities and very high rates of mass loss by stellar winds. V509 Cassiopeiae (V509 Cas or HR 8752) is one of two yellow hypergiant stars found in the constellation Cassiopeia, which also contains Rho Cassiopeiae.

Similarities between Hypergiant and V509 Cassiopeiae

Hypergiant and V509 Cassiopeiae have 14 things in common (in Unionpedia): Cassiopeia (constellation), Helium, Hertzsprung–Russell diagram, Luminous blue variable, Metallicity, P Cygni, Rho Cassiopeiae, Spectral line, Star, Stellar classification, Stellar wind, Supergiant star, Wolf–Rayet star, Yellow hypergiant.

Cassiopeia (constellation)

Cassiopeia is a constellation in the northern sky, named after the vain queen Cassiopeia in Greek mythology, who boasted about her unrivalled beauty.

Hertzsprung–Russell diagram

The Hertzsprung–Russell diagram, abbreviated H–R diagram, HR diagram or HRD, is a scatter plot of stars showing the relationship between the stars' absolute magnitudes or luminosities versus their stellar classifications or effective temperatures.

Spectral line

A spectral line is a dark or bright line in an otherwise uniform and continuous spectrum, resulting from emission or absorption of light in a narrow frequency range, compared with the nearby frequencies.

Yellow hypergiant

A yellow hypergiant is a massive star with an extended atmosphere, a spectral class from A to K, and an initial mass of about 20–60 solar masses but having lost as much as half that mass.
