K star 3600 to 5000 K late star cooler than G2 Cool star with spectral type K with spectra resembling those of sunspots, in which the hydrogen lines have been greatly weakened. The HK lines (q.v.) reach their greatest intensity. Strongest lines are Ca I (4227 Å) and the G-band (4303 Å). orange to red

UV Ceti star greater than 1000 Kelvin dwarf UV Ceti main sequence star V hydrogen dKe star, dMe star Late-type dwarfs with spectra showing hydrogen emission lines. d
