Hello,
I have a question from the Dutch Astrophysics Olympiad, which I can't solve.
" Is there mathematical proof that stars are still being formed? "
In previous questions, i had to derive the following equations, which i need to use in my answer for the question above:
L = σ * T4 * 4πR2
(Luminosity-Temperature relation of a star, where σ is the Boltzmann constant, T is temperature and R is the radius of the star)
t = life time of sun * (M/Msun)-2,6
(where t equals the life time of a type V star and M equals mass)
Can anyone help me with this?
Thanks,
Max.Planck
