I'm having issues with aligning superscript with subscript in math mode. My MWE is:
% arara: xelatex
documentclass[preview,8pt,varwidth=true]standalone
usepackageamsmath
usepackagemathspec
usepackagefontspec
setmathfont(Greek,Digits,Latin)CMU Bright Roman
usepackage[normalweight=Light,largedelims=true]mdsymbol
setmathrm[ItalicFont=CMU Bright Roman, BoldFont=CMU Bright Roman,BoldItalicFont=CMU Bright Roman]CMU Bright Roman
begindocument
thispagestyleempty
$v_alphabeta^star$
enddocument
If you take a closer look, you'll see that the star is pushed to the left slightly.

No, it's not pushed to the left; the visual effect depends on how alpha sits in its bounding box. Read in the manual of mathspec about the use of ".
With a proper math font, the subscript would probably be pushed a bit left, to take into account the shape of the letter “vâ€Â, but mathspec can't do that. It's just a hack, notwithstanding its cleverness.

Thanks for your response! And what would be the way to push the star to the right, so that left point of the star is not above the letter "v"?

@MarkoP Something like^,staror, for finer control^mkern2mu star. Experiment what's best.
