A luminous giant star is a class II luminance star in the MKK classification. They are stars whose characteristics are intermediate between those of a giant star and those of a supergiant star. In general, giant stars with a particularly high luminosity are included in this group, although they are not so bright or massive as to be classified as supergiant. Examples

The following table lists luminous giant stars of different spectral types ordered from highest to lowest temperature.
