Semi-analytical Formulas for the Hertzsprung-Russell Diagram

The absolute visual magnitude as function of the observed color (B-V), also named Hertzsprung-Russell diagram, can be described through five equations; that when calibrated stars are available means eight constants. The developed framework allows to deduce the remaining physical parameters, mass, r...
