36 Capricorni
36 Capricorni is a single, yellow-hued star in the southern constellation of Capricornus. It is visible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of +4.50. The distance to this star, as determined from an annual parallax shift of , is around 171 light years. It is currently moving closer with a heliocentric radial velocity of −21 km/s, and will come within in about 685,000 years ago. This is an evolved G-type giant star with a stellar classification of G7IIIb Fe–1, where the suffix notation indicates an underabundance of iron found in the spectrum. At the age of 2.4 billion years it has become a red clump giant, meaning it is generating energy through helium fusion at its core. It has an estimated 1.94 times the mass of the Sun and is radiating 44.7 times the Sun's luminosity from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 5,017 K.

Capricornus
Capricornus is one of the constellations of the zodiac. Its name is Latin for "horned goat" or "goat horn" or "having horns like a goat's", and it is commonly represented in the form of a sea goat: a mythical creature that is half goat, half fish. Capricornus is one of the 88 modern constellations, and was also one of the 48 constellations listed by the 2nd century astronomer Claudius Ptolemy. Its old astronomical symbol is (♑︎). Under its modern boundaries it is bordered by Aquila, Sagittarius, Microscopium, Piscis Austrinus, and Aquarius. The constellation is located in an area of sky called the Sea or the Water, consisting of many water-related constellations such as Aquarius, Pisces and Eridanus (constellation), Eridanus. It is the smallest constellation in the zodiac. Notable features Stars Capricornus is a faint constellation, with only one star above magnitude 3; its Bayer designation, alpha star has a magnitude of only 3.6. The brightest star ...

Photosphere
The photosphere is a star's outer shell from which light is radiated. The term itself is derived from Ancient Greek roots, φῶς, φωτός/''phos, photos'' meaning "light" and σφαῖρα/''sphaira'' meaning "sphere", in reference to it being a spherical surface that is perceived to emit light. It extends into a star's surface until the plasma becomes opaque, equivalent to an optical depth of approximately , or equivalently, a depth from which 50% of light will escape without being scattered. A photosphere is the deepest region of a luminous object, usually a star, that is transparent to photons of certain wavelengths. Temperature The surface of a star is defined to have a temperature given by the effective temperature in the Stefan–Boltzmann law. Stars, except neutron stars, have no solid or liquid surface. Therefore, the photosphere is typically used to describe the Sun's or another star's visual surface. Composition of the Sun The Sun is composed primarily of ...

Theta Capricorni
Theta Capricorni, Latinized from θ Capricorni, is a white-hued star in the southern constellation of Capricornus, positioned 0.58° south of the ecliptic. Sometimes, this star is called by the name Dorsum, meaning ''the back (of the goat)'' in Latin. It can be seen with the naked eye, having an apparent visual magnitude of +4.07. Based upon an annual parallax shift of 20.11  mas as seen from the Earth, the star is about 162 light years from the Sun. It is drifting closer with a radial velocity of −11 km/s. This is an ordinary A-type main sequence star with a stellar classification of A1 V. Radial velocity variations indicate it may be a binary star system, but when the system was examined in the infrared, no companion was detected. Theta Capricorni has an estimated 2.24 times the mass of the Sun and around 2.7 times the Sun's radius. It is 152 million years old and is spinning fairly rapidly with a projected rotational velocity of 104 km/ ...

Chi Capricorni
Chi Capricorni, Latinized from χ Capricorni, is a star in the southern constellation of Capricornus. Based upon an annual parallax shift of 18.14  mas as seen from the Earth, the star is located about 180  light years from the Sun. It is visible to the naked eye with an apparent visual magnitude of +5.28. Properties This is an A-type main sequence star with a stellar classification of A0 V. It is a candidate Lambda Boötis star, showing a chemically peculiar spectrum with a low abundance of most elements heavier than oxygen. The star is around 251 million years old and is spinning rapidly with a projected rotational velocity of 212 km/s. It has 2.78 times the mass of the Sun and is radiating 21 times the solar luminosity from its photosphere at an effective temperature of 10,878 K. At an angular separation of 1,199  arcseconds lies a faint proper motion companion designated HIP 99550. At the estimated distance of Chi Capri ...

Warring States Period
The Warring States period () was an era in History of China#Ancient China, ancient Chinese history characterized by warfare, as well as bureaucratic and military reforms and consolidation. It followed the Spring and Autumn period and concluded with the Qin's wars of unification, Qin wars of conquest that saw the annexation of all other contender states, which ultimately led to the Qin (state), Qin state's victory in 221 BC as the first unified History of China#Imperial China, Chinese empire, known as the Qin dynasty. Although different scholars point toward different dates ranging from 481 BC to 403 BC as the true beginning of the Warring States, Sima Qian's choice of 475 BC is the most often cited. The Warring States era also overlaps with the second half of the Eastern Zhou Period, Eastern Zhou dynasty, though the Chinese sovereign, known as the king of Zhou, ruled merely as a figurehead and served as a backdrop against the machinations of the warring states. The "Warring St ...

Spring And Autumn Period
The Spring and Autumn period was a period in Chinese history from approximately 770 to 476 BC (or according to some authorities until 403 BC) which corresponds roughly to the first half of the Eastern Zhou period. The period's name derives from the ''Spring and Autumn Annals'', a chronicle of the state of Lu between 722 and 479 BCE, which tradition associates with Confucius (551–479 BCE). During this period, the Zhou royal authority over the various feudal states eroded as more and more dukes and marquesses obtained ''de facto'' regional autonomy, defying the king's court in Luoyi and waging wars amongst themselves. The gradual Partition of Jin, one of the most powerful states, marked the end of the Spring and Autumn period and the beginning of the Warring States period. Background In 771 BCE, a Quanrong invasion in coalition with the states of Zeng and Shen — the latter polity being the fief of the grandfather of the disinherited crown prince Yijiu — destroyed the ...
