Retirement homes of the gods
Article Abstract:
A comparison between Sun and several 'red' dwarfs such as Proxima Centauri, Barnard's Star, and Wolf 359 with reference to their distance, temperature, peak, mass, tidal force is presented. While their temperatures range from about 3000 kelvins to 3300 kelvins, most of the light they emit lie in the infrared, with a wavelength at the peak intensity of around one micron.
