Gamma 1 Caeli A has a similar mass to the Sun, but expanded to 14.3 times the Sun's girth. It radiates at 69.9 times the Sun's luminosity from its swollen photosphere at an effective temperature of 4,411 K .
Rho Cassiopeiae (/ ˌ r oʊ k æ s i ə ˈ p iː aɪ,-s i oʊ-,-iː /; ρ Cas, ρ Cassiopeiae) is a yellow hypergiant star in the constellation Cassiopeia.It is about 8,150 light-years (2,500 pc) from Earth, yet can still be seen by the naked eye as it is over 300,000 times brighter than the Sun.
It is an estimated 880 million years old with 1.34 times the mass of the Sun. The star is radiating eight times the Sun's luminosity from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 6,596 K. A companion is listed in multiple star catalogues. It is a 10th-magnitude star about 13″ away, much further away than ν Caeli and unrelated.
HD 177565 (HR 7232; LTT 7569; Gliese 744) is a yellow-hued star located in the southern constellation Corona Australis. It has an apparent magnitude of 6.16, [2] placing it near the limit for naked eye visibility, even under ideal conditions.

In spite of its enlarged size, this star has only 1.5 times the mass of the Sun and hence a much lower density. The effective temperature of the outer atmosphere of Delta Ophiuchi is a relatively cool 3,733 K, which is what gives it the orange-red hue of an M-type star.
Hamal / ˈ h æ m əl /, designated Alpha Arietis (α Arietis, abbreviated Alpha Ari, α Ari), is the brightest star in the northern zodiacal constellation of Aries.. With an apparent visual magnitude of 2.0, it is the mean 50th-brightest star in the night sky.
It is more massive than the Sun, with about three times its mass, and radiates about 55 times the Sun's luminosity from its outer envelope at a higher effective temperature of 11,780 K. This temperature gives Lambda Aquilae the blue-white hue that is a characteristic of B-type stars.
