A star | 10000 K | early star | H I | Star with spectral type A in which the spectrum of the Balmer lines of hydrogen attain their greatest strength. Helium lines can no longer be seen. Some metallic lines are present; in late A stars the H and K lines of ionized calcium appear. A0 stars have a color index of zero. | white |
peculiar star | greater than 1000 Kelvin | early star | | Star with spectra that cannot be conveniently fitted into any of the standard spectral classifications. Denoted by a p after spectral type. | |
Am star | 10000 K | A star | H I | A-type or F-type object to which no unique spectral type can be assigned. Usually the classifier provides a classification according to the hydrogen, metallic and calcium lines. Also call metallic-line stars. | white |
