| Summary | "Lectures on Stellar Statistics" by C. V. L. Charlier is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. The work delves into the various attributes of stars as determined through astronomical observations, with the aim of converting apparent observations into a deeper understanding of their absolute characteristics. The primary focus of this volume is on the statistical elements governing stellar radiation and motion. The opening of the text introduces the foundational principles of stellar statistics, explaining how the study of stars hinges on their apparent attributes, such as radiation intensity, wavelength, and dispersion. Charlier discusses the importance of these attributes in determining stellar positions and movements, emphasizing how statistical analysis can yield insights into their physical nature. He also elaborates on the concepts of galactic coordinates and the notation used for stellar indications, laying the groundwork for a more extensive exploration of stellar attributes in the following chapters.
