The surface temperature of a star can be estimated using the Stefan-Boltzmann law and the concept of luminosity. The formula to calculate the surface temperature (T) is:
T = (L / 4πσR^2)^0.25
Where:
T = Surface temperature in Kelvin
L = Luminosity (related to absolute magnitude)
σ = Stefan-Boltzmann
