BaSeL: a library of synthetic spectra and colours for GAIA

E. Lastennet, T. Lejeune, E. Oblak +2

The BaseL Stellar Library (BaSeL) is a library of synthetic spectra which has already been used in various astrophysical applications (stellar clusters studies, characterization an…

A standard stellar library for evolutionary synthesis. III. Metallicity calibration

P. Westera, T. Lejeune, R. Buser +2

We extend the colour calibration of the widely used BaSeL standard stellar library (Lejeune, Cuisinier, & Buser 1997, 1998) to non-solar metallicities, down to [Fe/H] ~ -2.0 dex. S…

The BaSeL library as a basic tool to provide fundamental stellar parameters of future space missions: COROT and GAIA

E. Lastennet, T. Lejeune, F. Cuisinier

COROT and GAIA are two future major space missions directly connected to most of the stellar astrophysic questions, from stellar physics to evolution of galaxies. We describe a pro…

Preparation of the COROT space mission: fundamental stellar parameters determinations from photometric and spectroscopic analyses for COROT potential target candidates

E. Lastennet, F. Lignieres, R. Buser +4

We present a sample of 9 nearby F-type stars with detailed spectroscopic analyses to investigate the Basel Stellar Library (BaSeL) in two photometric systems simultaneously, UBV Jo…

The Helium content and age of the Hyades: Constraints from five binary systems and Hipparcos parallaxes

Yveline Lebreton, João Fernandes, Thibault Lejeune

We compare the accurate empirical mass-luminosity (M-L) relation based on five Hyades binary systems to predictions of stellar models calculated with various input parameters (heli…

Towards Better Age Estimates for Stellar Populations: The Y^2 Isochrones for Solar Mixture

S. Yi, P. Demarque, Y. -C. Kim +4

We have constructed a new set of isochrones, called the Y^2 Isochrones, that represent an update of the Revised Yale Isochrones (RYI), using improved opacities and equations of sta…
