* Beta Centauri: This is a bright star in the constellation Centaurus. Like all stars, it has a surface temperature, but it's not referred to as "Beta temperature".
* Beta decay: This is a type of radioactive decay that involves the emission of a beta particle (an electron or positron). This process doesn't have a specific temperature associated with it.
To determine the temperature of a star, you need to look at its spectral type:
* Stars are classified based on their spectra, which are related to their temperature.
* The most common classification system uses letters O, B, A, F, G, K, and M, with O being the hottest and M the coolest.
* Each of these letters has numerical subtypes (e.g., B0, B1, B2, etc.) that further refine the temperature.
To find the temperature of a specific star, you'll need to look it up in a stellar catalog or database, such as SIMBAD.
