Hi all,
Star surface temperature determines the occurrence of photosphere, where radiation can escape from star interior due to diminishing gas ionization and radiation absorption.
If it was true the star photospheres should have the same temperature and Herzsprung-Russell diagram should be only a point.
Actually initial mass should determine the difference, but what is the machanism?
What is wrong in this reasoning.
I refer to cosmic background radiation map that is defined our universe photosphere with an emission temperature of about some thousand degree Kelvin, temperature at which plasma ionization ceases.
Thanks of your time
