The H–R diagram is the key to understanding stars, their birth, their long lives, and their eventual deaths. Luminosity (L / L() refers to the total amount of energy that a star emits in terms of the Sun’s luminosity, and the temperature refers to the temperature of its surface. Together, the temperature and luminosity of a star locate it on the H–R diagram and tell astronomers its radius, its family relationships with other stars, and a great deal about its history and fate.
