Stellar kinematics — is the study of the movement of stars without needing to understand how they acquired their motion. This differs from stellar dynamics, which takes into account gravitational effects. The motion of a star relative to the Sun can provide useful… … Wikipedia
Stellar magnetic field — A stellar magnetic field is a magnetic field generated by the motion of conductive plasma inside a main sequence (hydrogen burning) star. This motion is created through convection, which is a form of energy transport involving the physical… … Wikipedia
Stellar evolution — Life cycle of a Sun like star Stellar evolution is the process by which a star undergoes a sequence of radical changes during its lifetime. Depending on the mass of the star, this lifetime ranges from only a few million years (for the most… … Wikipedia
X-ray astronomy — X rays start at 0.008 nm and extend across the electromagnetic spectrum to 8 nm, over which the Earth s atmosphere is opaque. X ray astronomy is an observational branch of astronomy which deals with the study of X ray observation and detection… … Wikipedia
Ultraluminous X-ray source — An ultra luminous X ray source (ULX) is an astronomical source of X rays that is not in the nucleus of a galaxy, and is more luminous than 1039 erg/s (1032 watts), assuming that it radiates isotropically. Typically there is about one ULX per… … Wikipedia
Gamma ray burst — [ GRB 990123 taken on January 23, 1999. The burst is seen as a bright dot denoted by a square on the left, with an enlarged cutout on the right. The object above it with the finger like filaments is the originating galaxy. This galaxy seems to be … Wikipedia
Gamma ray burst emission mechanisms — are theories that explain how the energy from a gamma ray burst progenitor (regardless of the actual nature of the progenitor) is turned into radiation. These mechanisms are a major topic of research as of 2007. Neither the light curves nor the… … Wikipedia
Gamma ray burst progenitors — are the types of celestial objects that can emit gamma ray bursts (GRBs). GRBs show an extraordinary degree of diversity. They can last anywhere from a fraction of a second to many minutes. Bursts could have a single profile or oscillate wildly… … Wikipedia
Electromagnetic spectrum — The electromagnetic (EM) spectrum is the range of all possible electromagnetic radiation frequencies. [cite web|url=http://imagine.gsfc.nasa.gov/docs/dict ei.html#em spectrum|title=Imagine the Universe! Dictionary] The electromagnetic spectrum… … Wikipedia
Cosmic ray — For the film, see Cosmic Ray (film). Cosmic radiation redirects here. For some background types of cosmic radiation, see cosmic background radiation and cosmic background. The energy spectrum for cosmic rays Cosmic rays are energetic charged… … Wikipedia
