Chronostar. II. Kinematic age and substructure of the Scorpius-Centaurus OB2 association
Maruša Žerjal, Michael J. Ireland, Timothy D. Crundall +2
The nearest region of massive star formation - the Scorpius-Centaurus OB2 association (Sco-Cen) - is a local laboratory ideally suited to the study of a wide range of astrophysical…
TSD: An inverse problem approach for recovering the exoplanetary atmosphere transmission spectrum from high-resolution spectroscopy
Nikolai Piskunov, Adam D. Rains, Linn Boldt-Christmas
Our ability to observe, detect, and characterize exoplanetary atmospheres has grown by leaps and bounds over the last 20 years, aided largely by developments in astronomical instru…
Very regular high-frequency pulsation modes in young intermediate-mass stars
Timothy R. Bedding, Simon J. Murphy, Daniel R. Hey +33
Asteroseismology is a powerful tool for probing the internal structures of stars by using their natural pulsation frequencies. It relies on identifying sequences of pulsation modes…
Precision angular diameters for 16 southern stars with VLTI/PIONIER
Adam D. Rains, Michael J. Ireland, Timothy R. White +2
In the current era of Gaia and large, high signal to noise stellar spectroscopic surveys, there is an unmet need for a reliable library of fundamentally calibrated stellar effectiv…
Cool and Data-Driven: An Exploration of Optical Cool Dwarf Chemistry with Both Data-Driven and Physical Models
Adam D. Rains, Thomas Nordlander, Stephanie Monty +6
Detailed chemical studies of F/G/K -- or Solar-type -- stars have long been routine in stellar astrophysics, enabling studies in both Galactic chemodynamics, and exoplanet demograp…
VLT/CRIRES+ observations of warm Neptune WASP-107 b: Challenges in detecting molecules with ground-based transmission spectroscopy of cooler and cloudy exoplanets
Linn Boldt-Christmas, Adam D. Rains, Nikolai Piskunov +15
Atmospheres of transiting exoplanets can be studied spectroscopically using space-based or ground-based observations. Each has its own strengths and weaknesses, so there are benefi…
