This term is absorbed from the Latin luminositas which is rooted in the word lumen meaning light. In the context of modern astrophysics, this term is used specifically to distinguish between the intrinsic energy of a star and its apparent brightness from Earth. The use of this word in Indonesian follows the rules of international scientific term absorption by maintaining the suffix -itas to indicate a property or quantitative magnitude.
