As mass is transferred through the inner Lagrangian point in a binary system toward a white dwarf, the material forms a rapidly growing whirling disk of material known as a(n)

What is/are the method(s) for determining the radius of a star?

The turnoff point on the H-R diagram of a star cluster tells us

Given the formula m – M = 5logd – 5 what is the distance to a star with an m of 5 and an M of 5?

How do the outward and inward forces compare in a star like the Sun?

_________________ occurs when light travels out of a gravitational field, loses energy and its wavelength grows longer.

The graph plots two properties of stars, temperature and luminosity. The data from 12 stars are plotted on the graph.  Which point is the dimmest star?

How do astronomers determine the luminosity class of stars from their spectra?

Examine the Hertzsprung–Russell diagram.  At which location on the Hertzsprung–Russell diagram would you expect to find a white dwarf?
