List Of Largest Known Milky Way Stars

List of largest known milky way star by the highest sizes.

In radius there are about 31 stars above 1,500 R☉ and in luminosity there are about 24 stars above 320,000 L☉ (or even about 8 stars above 630,000 L☉).

Large Magellanic Cloud Stars

A quick play with a spreadsheet gives these stars above 1,000 R☉. Some are clearly dubious for various reasons. Many of the rest may already be in the list under different IDs, which could be fun to track down.

I need to find out if any of these stars are already present in the list, before adding them. I also need to know which stars stay out of the list, as some could be unreliable or inaccurate. For example, WOH S173 *(LMC 77)* is listed on the table as 13,108 R☉, which, to our current understanding of stars, is impossible. Another star on the table, HD 269352 *(LMC 342)*, has a radius of 2,549 R☉,
