Stellar Models are Reliable at Low Metallicity: An Asteroseismic Age for the Ancient Very Metal-Poor Star KIC 8144907
Daniel Huber, Ditte Slumstrup, Marc Hon +15
Very metal-poor stars ([Fe/H]<-2) are important laboratories for testing stellar models and reconstructing the formation history of our galaxy. Asteroseismology is a powerful tool…
Is [Y/Mg] a Reliable Age Diagnostic for FGK Stars?
Travis A. Berger, Jennifer L. van Saders, Daniel Huber +3
Current spectroscopic surveys are producing large catalogs of chemical abundances for stars of all types. The yttrium to magnesium ratio, [Y/Mg], has emerged as a candidate age ind…
Rotation Distributions around the Kraft Break with TESS and Kepler: The Influences of Age, Metallicity, and Binarity
Ellis A. Avallone, Jamie N. Tayar, Jennifer L. van Saders +6
Stellar rotation is a complex function of mass, metallicity, and age and can be altered by binarity. To understand the importance of these parameters in main sequence stars, we hav…
The Stars Kepler Missed: Investigating the Kepler Target Selection Function Using Gaia DR2
Linnea M. Wolniewicz, Travis A. Berger, Daniel Huber
The Kepler Mission revolutionized exoplanet science and stellar astrophysics by obtaining highly precise photometry of over 200,000 stars over 4 years. A critical piece of informat…
TESS Asteroseismology of Mensae: Benchmark Ages for a G7 Dwarf and its M-dwarf Companion
Ashley Chontos, Daniel Huber, Travis A. Berger +27
Asteroseismology of bright stars has become increasingly important as a method to determine fundamental properties (in particular ages) of stars. The Kepler Space Telescope initiat…
Exploring the evolution of stellar rotation using Galactic kinematics
Ruth Angus, Angus Beane, Adrian M. Price-Whelan +9
The rotational evolution of cool dwarfs is poorly constrained after around 1-2 Gyr due to a lack of precise ages and rotation periods for old main-sequence stars. In this work we u…
The Gaia-Kepler Stellar Properties Catalog. I. Homogeneous Fundamental Properties for 186,301 Kepler Stars
Travis A. Berger, Daniel Huber, Jennifer L. van Saders +3
An accurate and precise Kepler Stellar Properties Catalog is essential for the interpretation of the Kepler exoplanet survey results. Previous Kepler Stellar Properties Catalogs ha…
The full phase curve of the eclipsing hot white dwarf binary system KOI-964
Ian Wong, Avi Shporer, Juliette C. Becker +6
We analyze the full phase curve of KOI-964, a binary system consisting of a hot white dwarf on an eclipsing orbit around an A-type host star. Using all 18 quarter…
