Riesen

Sternenriesen sind mehr als nur große Sterne; sie repräsentieren verschiedene Lebensstadien. Blaue Riesen sind jung und massereich, mit Temperaturen über 10.000 K, und leuchten heller als zehntausend Sonnen. Gelbe Riesen wie Capella sind ein kurzer Übergang, so als ob sich unsere Sonne aufblähen und ihre Farbe ändern würde. Rote Riesen sind Sterne im Alter, die ihren Wasserstoff verbraucht haben und so expandieren, dass sie die inneren Planeten unseres Systems verschlucken würden. Während unsere Sonne wie ein Tennisball ist, können diese Riesen so groß wie ein Haus sein. Ihre Farbe hängt direkt mit der Temperatur zusammen: Blau ist am heißesten, Rot am kühlsten. Dieses Wachstum ist ein Schritt der Evolution.

Image: Twenty-nine giant planets confirmed around bright stars using TESS data
The study presents the characterization of 29 new giant planets, often categorized as hot or warm Jupiters due to their massive size and proximity to their host stars. These planets were identified as they transited—or passed in front of—their host stars, which are bright stars similar in type to our Sun (specifically FGK-type stars). In addition to confirming these 29 worlds, the analysis identified three previously unknown bound stellar companions, specifically TOI-3988 B, TOI-6171 B, and ...
