热改正

在天文学中，热改正是对天体绝对星等的改正值，以将天体的绝对目视星等转换为热星等（又称全波段星等）。对于大部分辐射出射落在可见光范围之外的恒星，热改正的值将偏大。热改正的统一尺度尚未标准化。

描述[编辑]

热改正的数学表达式为：

BC=M_{bol}-M_{v}\!\,

下表列出对具有不同光谱类型和分类的一系列恒星的热改正： ^[1] ^[2] ^[3]

光谱型	主序星	巨星	超巨星
O3	-4.3	-4.2	-4.0
G0	-0.10	-0.13	-0.1
G5	-0.14	-0.34	-0.20
00	-0.24	-0.42	-0.38
K5	-0.66	-1.19	-1.00
M0	-1.21	-1.28	-1.3

对于早型星和晚型星，热改正都为偏大的负数。前者是因为早型星表面温度较高，辐射出射的很大一部分是在紫外波段的；后者则是因为晚型星表面温度较低，辐射出射很大一部分在红外波段。对于像我们的太阳这样的恒星，热改正是微不足道的，因为太阳的辐射出射集中在可见光波段。热改正是对天体的绝对星等进行的校正，以将天体的绝对目视星等转换为其热星等。

类似的，热改正可以用于可见光波段之外的其他电磁波段改正为热星等。^[4]例如，对于某些领域内常见的辐射出射集中在红外波段范围内的、表面温度较低的恒星，热改正有时采用一套不同的值以改正红外波段的绝对星等，而非绝对目视星等。

在数学上，这样的改正值可以表示为：

BC_{K}=M_{bol}-M_{k}\!\,

^[5]

其中M _K是K波段的绝对星等， BC _K是K波段的热改正值。 ^[6]
