Luminosity
The total energy radiated by a star each second. Luminosity is a quality intrinsic to the star: brightness may or may not be. Absolute brightness is another name for luminosity, but apparent brightness is the amount of energy emitted by a star and striking some surface or detection device (including our eyes). Apparent brightness varies with distance.
