Luminosity in a sentence

Altair's total X-ray luminosity is at least an order of magnitude larger than the X-ray luminosity for Vega.

Increased luminosity at the same temperature, or alternatively cooler temperature at the same luminosity, indicates that these stars are larger than those on the main sequence and they are called giants or supergiants.

Measuring luminosity Hertzsprung–Russell diagram identifying stellar luminosity as a function of temperature for many stars in our solar neighborhood.

The maximum luminosity of an eclipsing binary system is equal to the sum of the luminosity contributions from the individual stars.

The observed luminosity of the Crab Pulsar is comparable to the spin-down luminosity, supporting the model that rotational kinetic energy powers the radiation from it.

Therefore, differences in the spectrum can be interpreted as luminosity effects and a luminosity class can be assigned purely from examination of the spectrum.

Endless reviewers of this serum claim that it reduces the appearance of their pores, restores luminosity to their skin and is less sticky (and therefore under-makeup-friendly) than other vitamin C serums on the market.

Vines are showered in luminosity but the grapes don't bake in heat.

We also recommend investing in the Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1% Serum, which is very similar to The Ordinary alternative, and works to combat redness, pigmentation, while also hydrating and boosting your skin’s luminosity.

Large watercolor works conjure the evanescent luminosity of a rainbow on paper.

Niacinamide gets to work improving tone, calming, hydrating and soothing, whilst vitamin C brings the luminosity.

When applied directly to hair, pumpkin seed oil adds a light-reflecting layer, boosting the shine and luminosity of each strand.

Hertzsprung and Russel found a definite relationship between the spectral type of a star and its luminosity, which is the amount of light a star produces.

Increasing the collision rate, or luminosity, increases the statistics available for physicists’ search and gives them more precise values for things like particles’ masses or how often they decay into other particles.

It differers from the option in application and drying time, from Seed to Skin feels more like an extra rich cream with a touch of oil, Avant's Pro-Intense achieves the same luminosity but with less overall shine.

Thus increasing the luminosity also means increasing the number of collisions.

Luminosity Talks is a not-for-profit group which presents innovative speakers and films to educate, inspire and inform.

The hue will dull the luminosity of your eyes, and anything in the purple family will only make you look bruised or tired.

A black hole with the mass of a car would have a diameter of about 10 −24 m and take a nanosecond to evaporate, during which time it would briefly have a luminosity of more than 200 times that of the Sun.

Active camouflage (or adaptive camouflage) is a group of camouflage technologies which would allow an object (usually military in nature) to blend into its surroundings by use of panels or coatings capable of changing color or luminosity.
