| diagram |
is a two-dimensional field of stars where luminosity (total radiation emitted) is the ordinate (dependent variable) and color (surface temperature) is the abscissa (determinant variable). This diagram is used extensively in astronomy to infer properties of stars whose distance makes direct measurement difficult or impossible. In terms of the HR diagram, evolved stars are either overluminous or underluminous for their color, that is, they are above or below the main sequence (qv) of the stars.
