Sentence examples for sun radius from inspiring English sources

With a mass of.95 Msun, a radius of 1.1 Rsun, a measured metallicity of 0, and an effective temperature of 5680 K, Kepler-11 is near in mass (95% of Sun), radius (110% of Sun), and iron content as the Sun.

This results display a good agreement with the Solar Astrolabe series, namely the mean value of the Sun radius (959.48′′±0.01′′), its time-dependence and the apparent dissymmetry of the photosphere.

The position angle of the slit was 216.1°, implying that the slit was oriented perpendicularly to the extended Sun-comet radius vector.

The long-slit observations were carried out with a 3 arcsec × 6 arcmin slit oriented at a position angle of 217.1° and thus perpendicular to the extended Sun-comet radius vector on February 2 , 2012

It is also wider than the sun, with a radius of 1.391 Rsun, or seven-fifths of that of the Sun.

Our sun has a Schwarzschild radius of approximately three kilometers; the Earth's Schwarzschild radius is a little less than a centimeter.

Based on comparing predictions of the sun's surface temperature, radius, and density gradients with observations, we come up with the estimate I gave earlier, about 4.57 billion years old.

Also effects on heat loss from receivers due to different parameters like average temperature (Ta) of the pipe, non-uniformity in the temperature along its surface, hour angle, denoting position of the sun in the sky and radius ratio (RR) of radius of receiver pipe to that of outer glass tube have been studied.

It is not exactly the size of the Schwarzschild radius for the Sun, which is the limit where the sun becomes a black hole, but it is still small.

From their thermospheric model Watson et al. (1981) obtained exobase levels for an Earth which is exposed to EUV fluxes of ~5 times that of the present Sun of ~7 planetary radii.

The object itself is probably about ten times the radius of our sun, but emits no light.
