Astronomy Cast Ep. 155: Dwarf Stars

http://www.astronomycast.com/archive/


From September 14, 2009.


We think we live near an average star, but that’s not the case at
all. Compared to most stars in the Universe, the Sun is a giant!
Let’s look at the small end of the stellar spectrum, to stars
with a fraction of the size and mass of our own Sun. There are
many ways that a star can get small, and they lead dramatically
different lives and deaths.
