Detailed explanation-1: -The red dwarf stars are considered the smallest stars known, and representative of the smallest star possible.
Detailed explanation-2: -The smallest star above this line is EBLM J0555-57Ab, which has a mass of 85 +/-4 Jupiter masses, or 8.1% the mass of the sun, or 1.61103E29 kg. It is located in a triple star system roughly 600 light years from Earth, and is roughly the size of the planet Saturn.
Detailed explanation-3: -Bottom line: The most-massive white dwarf now known is ZTF J1901+1458. It’s thought to have formed when 2 less massive white dwarfs merged. It has 1.3 times our sun’s mass.
Detailed explanation-4: -Red dwarf stars are also called M-type main-sequence stars. They can be found in the lower end of the main sequence band. They generate energy through the thermonuclear fusion of hydrogen. Their mass is about 0.8 times that of the Sun’s mass, with a maximum temperature of 5, 200 K.
Detailed explanation-5: -Dwarfs-Smaller stars are called dwarf stars. Red and yellow stars are generally called dwarfs. A brown dwarf is one that never quite got large enough for nuclear fusion to occur. A white dwarf is the remnants of the collapse of a red giant star.
