...This is called the absolute luminosity effect. The method of classifying the characteristics of stellar spectra into two dimensions, temperature and absolute luminosity, was perfected by WWMorgan and PCKeenan of the Yerkes Observatory in the 1940s, and is called the MK classification. Knowing the temperature from a star's spectrum gives the star's absolute luminosity, and comparing it with the apparent brightness gives the star's distance. ... *Some of the terminology references "Morgan, WW" are listed below.
