The luminosity of a white dwarf star can vary depending on its mass and age, but typically ranges from about 0.001 to 0.1 times the luminosity of the Sun. These stars are small and dense, with surface temperatures ranging from 8,000 to 100,000 Kelvin, which affects their brightness.

What can a white dwarf do to it's companion star?
A white dwarf can accrete material from its companion star, causing an increase in temperature and luminosity. This can lead to catastrophic events such as a nova or supernova explosion if the accretion rate is high enough.
What is a cooled white dwarf star that is extremely dense?
A cooled white dwarf is a black dwarf. I think you are thinking of a neutron star which has nothing to do with a white dwarf.
What type of stars has a low temperature and high luminosity?
A white dwarf.A white dwarf.A white dwarf.A white dwarf.
Why would a white dwarf become a red dwarf?
A white dwarf could not become a red dwarf. A white dwarf is a remnant of a dead star. A red dwarf is a star with a very low mass.
Is white dwarf a massive star?
No. A white dwarf is the remnant of a low to medium mass star.

What type of star has a high temperature and low luminosity in the HR diagram?
A blue dwarf star would have high temperature and low luminosity in the Hertzsprung-Russell (HR) diagram. Blue dwarf stars are in the lower left corner of the diagram, characterized by their high surface temperature and faint luminosity compared to other stars of similar temperature.

A white dwarf can accrete material from its companion star, causing an increase in temperature and luminosity. This can lead to catastrophic events such as a nova or supernova explosion if the accretion rate is high enough.
Is a dwarf star and a white dwarf the same thing?
No. A dwarf star is a small star. A white dwarf is just one particular type of dwarf star, but there are other types.
Is the white dwarf the biggest star?
No a white dwarf is a small compact star.
What is a cooled white dwarf star that is extremely dense?
