Star size
Radius of the star Gaia DR3 4050440965165040384 is not known. Its estimated value based on other similar stars is about 10 % solar radii.

The size of a star refers to its radius — the distance from its center to its surface. Star size is usually measured in solar radii (R☉), where 1 solar radius equals approximately 696,000 kilometers. Depending on their type and life stage, stars can be much smaller or larger than the Sun... icon More about Star size in StellarGuide

Star temperature
Surface temperature of Gaia DR3 4050440965165040384 is estimated to be 2151 K, which is 38 % of the temperature on the surface of the Sun.

The temperature of a star refers to the temperature at its surface, also called the photosphere. It is measured in kelvins (K), the standard unit for temperature in astronomy. A star’s temperature tells us a lot about its physical properties and where it stands in its evolutionary stage... icon More about Star temperature in StellarGuide

Class of stars Brown dwarf
Brown dwarfs are not really stars, because there is no thermonuclear fusion in their core. These objects are smaller and cooler than stars, but too massive to be considered planets.

A planet’s escaping helium, a star’s hidden infrared rhythms, and a possible distant world in the WISPIT 2 system reveal how much we can learn by watching light across the spectrum. New observations also trace the changing radio and X-ray activity of young V1298 Tauri, while detailed models map cloudy and clear regions across the hot Jupiter WASP-43 b.
