Description: Temperature and Color (b) These diagrams show the relationship between the color of a star and its surface temperature. The intensity of light emitted by three stars is plotted against wavelength (compare with Figure 4-2). The range of visible wavelengths is indicated. The location of the peak of each star’s intensity curve, relative to the visible-light band, determines the apparent color of its visible light. The insets show stars of about these surface temperatures. Ultraviolet (uv) extends to 10 nm.
