How will stars in each spectral type vary in their luminosity, temperature on a Hertzsprung-Russell Diagram?
Started July 2, 2026
Abstract or project description
My project entails using Python, specifically the Jupyter notebook for accessing data from Gaia, which is a European satellite launched in 2013 to explore the stars. My aim is to pick one star from each spectral type, which is based on the temperature and spectra, such as O-type stars, B-type starc etc. Then, using Jupyter, I will extract data and use it to then conduct mathematical calculations deploying formulas like stellar masses etc. and use those calculations to create my Hertszprung-Russell Diagram, which will illustrate my findings, comparing luminosity and each star's temperature. My final product will be a research paper written in LATEX and also a separate video explainer for future researchers that might need this.
