The Sun and stars with similar temperatures are yellow when observed from the Earth, and that is why they are often represented with this colour on charts like yours and called “yellow dwarfs”.
In reality, however, the Sun is white.
They're yellow because they are emitting yellow and that's what the emissions spectrum of hydrogen looks like.

I'll repeat again: The Sun only appears yellow - or sometimes orange or red - through Earth's atmosphere.

Its true colour is white.

The sun emits yellow spikes. They dumb it down to "white" so that paisanos like you can quickly wrap their little minds around it.

I'm the one giving a lesson here.
Not likely, Kipper.

I have oodles of photographs used in industrial publications where the light appears to be "white" but were taken under fluorescent lighting that is a bilious green, then colour corrected to "whitish". You would be hard pressed to find a published photograph that has not undergone some sort of colour correction. They all have been. Literally ....

There is no such thing as "pure white" in nature. It is an abstract construct. There is no actual "black", either and is you've ever had to colour match something to "black", you would find that there are hundreds of "black" colours ... thousands of them, even.

So you know better than Sun experts, who believe the Sun is white, as to its true colour.

Have you thought about going public with your new solar discovery? You might win a Nobel Prize.

The "Sun" experts ... let me guess, they're on page 2 of the Sun.

They must be the same sort of "scientific experts" who claim that the world is cooling off.

Ask a Physicist about atoms emitting signature Spectra. There is one huge shit-pile of hydrogen up there, heated to unimaginably hot temperatures where their electrons merrily leap up-and-down and emit vast amounts of yellow light.
