Is the sun a low mass or high mass sequence star?
The sun is a low mass sequence star. It is classified as a G-type main-sequence star, which means it is in the middle of its stellar evolution and will remain stable for billions of years.
Is the Rigel star a high mass star or a low mass star?
High mass.
Low mass stars will become a when they die. A high mass star will end up as a or a?
A low mass star will become a white dwarf star, eventually this will cool to become a black dwarf. A high mass star (at least 8 times the mass of our Sun) will form a neutron star or a black hole, after a supernova event.
Is the sun a low mass or high mass star?
There are more low mass stars. this is for two reasons:- # the star forming process generates more low mass stars # High mass stars burn out very quickly and explode as supernovas and thus over time there are less and less of them.
Is vega a low medium or high mass star?
Vega has about 2.1 times the mass of the Sun. That's a fairly large mass; but you'll have to choose where you set the limit between "medium-mass" and "high-mass"! It is definitely not "low-mass"; in general, low-mass stars, i.e. red dwarves, can't be seen with the naked eye, even if they are in our immediate neighborhood. (The very closest star after the Sun is Proxima Centauri, and it can't be seen with the naked eye.) The main definition of a high mass star is a star that can eventually explode as a supernova. For that the star needs to be around at least 8 times the Sun's mass. I would say Vega is best thought of as "medium mass".
Is the sun a low mass or high mass sequence star?

Is the Rigel star a high mass star or a low mass star?
High mass.
Is rigel a high or low mass star?
High mass.
Why does red gaints stars form?
A red gaint star is a luminous star of low or intermediate mass(0.5ms to 10ms). its
What does a high mass and low mass star end as?
white dwarf
Is the sun a low mass or high mass star and which stage is it in?
The sun is a low mass star in the main sequence stage of its life cycle.
Low mass stars will become a when they die. A high mass star will end up as a or a?
A low mass star will become a white dwarf star, eventually this will cool to become a black dwarf. A high mass star (at least 8 times the mass of our Sun) will form a neutron star or a black hole, after a supernova event.

How do the numbers of low-mass stars compare with those of higher-mass stars in new star clusters?
In a newly formed star cluster stars with low masses must greaty out number stars with high masses. High mass stars are rare and low mass stars are extremely common.
Is juveline star a low mass star or a high mass star?
Juvenile star is typically classified as a low mass star, as it is in the early stage of its life cycle. These stars have a mass similar to that of the Sun or less. They are characterized by their long lifespan and relatively stable nature.
Is a supergiant star high mass or low?
A supergiant star is typically high mass, with masses several times that of the sun. They are one of the final stages of stellar evolution for high-mass stars.
What is the definition of a low mass proto star?
a low mass protostar is the begining formation of a low mass star. a low mass protostar is formed by a nebula (stellar nursery), like a cloud in space, where all stares come from. the definition of protostar is: a collection of gas, and dust who`s gravitational pull is causing it to collapse on itself & form a star. a LOW MASS protostar just has a LOWER MASS then a HIGH MASS protostar.
