A dwarf star is a star of relatively small size and low luminosity. 1  Most main sequence stars are dwarf stars. The term was originally coined in 1906 when the Danish astronomer Ejnar Hertzsprung noticed that the reddest starsâclassified as K and M in the Harvard scheme could be divided into two distinct groups.
Scientists think that 20 out of the 30 stars nearest to Earth are red dwarfs; however, none of them can be seen with the naked eye. The closest star to the sun, Proxima Centauri, is a red dwarf. Despite its frequent appearance, the term red dwarf does not refer to a single kind of star. It is frequently applied to the coolest objects, including K- and M-dwarfs, which are true stars, and brown dwarfs, often referred to as failed stars because they do not sustain hydrogen fusion in their cores.
