cataclysmic variables : Binary stars whose distance corresponds to the radius of the larger star.
absolute magnitude : Apparent magnitude of a star a 10 parsec distance.
circumpolar star : A group of stars that are permanently above the horizon.
zenith distance : First coordinate in the horizontal system.
accretion disk : A disk of hot material spiraling into a compact massive object, such as a black hole or neutron star.
peculiar stars : Stars whose spectrum can't be easily classified into the usual spectrum categories and/or magnitude categories.
sidereal year : The time period between two passings of the sun by a certain fixed star.
altazimuth : Coordinate system in which the observer becomes the point of reference.

color index : Measurement for the determination of the color of a star.
luminosity : the amount of light energy emitted y a star. It's absolute magnitude.
periastron : The shortest distance of the stars of a binary system.
stellar day : The time between two upper culminations of the zero point through the meridian.
white dwarf : A small, hot star near the end of it's life.
amplitude : Difference between maximum and minimum magnitudes of a variable star.
magnitude : The brightness of stars.
supernova : The powerful explosion that occurs when a massive star uses up it's hydrogen fuel.
apastron : The largest distance between the stars of a double star system.
red giant : A star that has expanded and cooled after using up it's hydrogen fuel.
