Class of stars Red dwarf

Red dwarfs are small, cool stars with surface temperatures of about 2,000–3,800 K, much cooler than the Sun. They usually have 8–50% of the Sun’s mass and shine very faintly, sometimes at just a tiny fraction of the Sun’s brightness. Classified mainly as spectral type M, they are the most common stars in the Milky Way, making up roughly 70–75% of its stellar population.

They fuse hydrogen slowly through the proton–proton chain and are fully convective, which allows them to use their fuel very efficiently. As a result, red dwarfs can live for tens of billions to trillions of years—far longer than the Sun. Many exoplanets orbit red dwarfs, including some in close habitable zones, though strong stellar activity can affect planetary environments.

Stellar Brief

24. 10. 2026

A star’s hidden vibrations, a planet’s escaping helium, and worlds wrapped in shifting clouds reveal how much can be learned from changing light. Recent observations trace WASP 121’s surface motions in infrared for the first time, map the uneven clouds of WASP-43 b, and catch helium streaming ahead of TOI-3884 b. Light patterns also place the massive star HD 74371 on a return journey toward bluer colors after its red supergiant phase, while search interest spans Proxima Centauri b, Alpha Centauri, and many other stellar neighbors.

About Stellar Catalog

Working with real data

Data in Stellar Catalog come from trusted scientific sources. Primary source is Gaia space telescope mapping the stars in Milky Way. Other sources include research papers, Simbad catalog and Exoplanet.eu database.

Estimated values

Objects listed in the Stellar Catalog often have values that are estimates. These estimates are determined using their known characteristics, such as spectral type, brightness across different wavelengths, distance from a star, and other factors.

Fresh and validated

Stellar Catalog is continuously updated with new information from research papers. Stellar and planetary data are validated by automatic processes as well as humans.
