The following is a list of particularly notable actual or hypothetical stars that have their own articles in Wikipedia, but are not included in the lists above. BPM 37093 — a diamond star Cygnus X-1 — X-ray source
In 2016, the International Astronomical Union (IAU) organized a Working Group on Star Names (WGSN) [2] to catalog and standardize proper names for stars. The WGSN's first bulletin, dated July 2016, [3] included a table of 125 stars comprising the first two batches of names approved by the WGSN (on 30 June and 20 July 2016) together with names of stars adopted by the IAU Executive Committee ...
List of O-type stars; List of star systems within 100–150 light-years; List of Wolf-Rayet stars; List of star systems within 150–200 light-years; List of star systems within 200–250 light-years; List of star systems within 250–300 light-years; List of star systems within 300–350 light-years; List of star systems within 350–400 light ...
This list covers all known stars, white dwarfs, brown dwarfs, and sub-brown dwarfs within 20 light-years (6.13 parsecs) of the Sun. So far, 131 such objects have been found. So far, 131 such objects have been found.
Stars that are at least sometimes visible to the unaided eye have their apparent magnitude (6.5 or brighter) highlighted in blue. The first list gives stars that are estimated to be 60 M ☉ or larger; the majority of which are shown. The second list includes some notable stars which are below 60 M ☉ for the purpose of comparison. The method ...
This was once the smallest known actively fusing star, when found in 2005, through 2013. It is the smallest eclipsing red dwarf, and smallest observationally measured diameter. [102] [103] [104] CoRoT-15b: 82,200 Brown dwarf [105] VB 10: 82,300 Red dwarf: It was the smallest known star from 1948 to 1981. [106] TRAPPIST-1: 82,925
The last stars in the list are familiar nearby stars put there for comparison, and not among the most luminous known. It may also interest the reader to know that the Sun is more luminous than approximately 95% of all known stars in the local neighbourhood (out to, say, a few hundred light years), due to enormous numbers of somewhat less ...
From the total of 4,949 stars known to have exoplanets (as of July 24, 2024), there are a total of 1007 known multiplanetary systems, [1] or stars with at least two confirmed planets, beyond the Solar System. This list includes systems with at least three confirmed planets or two confirmed planets where additional candidates have been proposed.
