Daftar bintang paling masif

Halaman ini berisi artikel tentang massa. Untuk radius, lihat daftar bintang terbesar.

Berikut ini adalah daftar bintang paling masif yang pernah ditemukan, dalam satuan Massa Matahari (M☉).

Ketidakpastian

Kebanyakan massa yang didaftarkan dibawah masih diperdebatkan, dan, karena masih menjadi subjek penelitian masa kini, masih dalam peninjauan dan sering direvisi massa maupun karakteristiknya yang lain.

  1. ^ Mass is estimated from hydrogen abundance and luminosity, making it very uncertain.
  2. ^ a b c d e f g h i j k l m n o This is a binary system but the secondary is much less massive than the primary.
  3. ^ This unusual measurement was made by assuming the star was ejected from a three-body encounter in NGC 3603. This assumption also means that the current star is the result of a merger between two original close binary components. The mass is consistent with evolutionary mass for a star with the observed parameters.
