Its radius is around 18 times that of our star, with a mass that has been estimated to be between 45 and 60 solar masses. Lambda Cephei turns around its axis in less than three days compared to the 24.47 days that the Sun needs to complete a full rotation and seems to be single, with no companions. Its ultimate fate is to explode as a supernova leaving behind a neutron star or perhaps a black hole. Lambda Cephei is also a runaway star that seems to have been expelled of the stellar association Cepheus OB3, that lies at 2,800 light-years, roughly 2,5 million years ago. Its motion through the interstellar medium is producing a shockwave in front of the gases that surround it and in the direction towards it moves. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Lambda Cephei」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
