    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_unsolved_problems...

    This article is a list of notable unsolved problems in astronomy. Problems may be theoretical or experimental. Theoretical problems result from inability of current theories to explain observed phenomena or experimental results. Experimental problems result from inability to test or investigate a proposed theory.

    The situation, task, action, result (STAR) format is a technique [1] used by interviewers to gather all the relevant information about a specific capability that the job requires. [ citation needed ] Situation : The interviewer wants you to present a recent challenging situation in which you found yourself.

    In the system AR Scorpii, which has two stars, scientists in Europe have observed what they call 'brutal' behavior. Scientists say that one star 'lashes' another in 'brutal' behavior Skip to main ...

    Typical boundary conditions set the values of the observable parameters appropriately at the surface (=) and center (=) of the star: () =, meaning the pressure at the surface of the star is zero; () =, there is no mass inside the center of the star, as required if the mass density remains finite; () =, the total mass of the star is the star's ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aberration_(astronomy)

    Consider the case where a distant star is motionless relative to the Sun, and the star is extremely far away, so that parallax may be ignored. In the rest frame of the Sun, this means light from the star travels in parallel paths to the Earth observer, and arrives at the same angle regardless of where the Earth is in its orbit.

  7. Star system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_system

    A multiple star system consists of two or more stars that appear from Earth to be close to one another in the sky. [dubious – discuss] This may result from the stars actually being physically close and gravitationally bound to each other, in which case it is a physical multiple star, or this closeness may be merely apparent, in which case it is an optical multiple star [a] Physical multiple ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ring_star_problem

    Example of a Ring Star Problem network. The ring star problem (RSP) is a NP-hard problem [1] in combinatorial optimization.In a complete weighted mixed graph, the ring star problem aims to find a minimum cost ring star subgraph formed by a cycle (ring part) and a set of arcs (star part) such that each arc's child node belongs to the cycle and each arc's parent node does not.

  9. Blue straggler - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_straggler

    Sketch of Hertzsprung–Russell diagram of a globular cluster, showing blue stragglers. A blue straggler is a type of star that is more luminous and bluer than expected. . Typically identified in a stellar cluster, they have a higher effective temperature than the main sequence turnoff point for the cluster, where ordinary stars begin to evolve towards the red gi
