Across
- 3. a very bright star of large diameter and low density (relative to the Sun)

- 9. an ordinary star such as the sun at a comparatively stable and long-lived stage of evolution
- 10. a celestial object intermediate in size between a giant planet and a small star, believed to emit mainly infrared radiation.
- 12. a celestial object of very small radius (typically 30 km) and very high density, composed predominantly of closely packed neutrons

- 5. a star whose brightness changes, either irregularly or regularly.
- 7. among the most massive and most luminous stars
