Een rode dwerg is een ster van spectraalklasse K5 tot K9 of M en lichtkrachtklasse V (een hoofdreeksster) met een massa tussen 0,08 en 0,5 maal die van de zon. Door de relatief kleine massa is de temperatuur in de kern van een rode dwerg lager dan in die van grotere sterren, zodat de kernfusiereactie ("verbranding") van waterstof tot helium langzamer gaat.
