SDSS-IV MaStar: Determination of Stellar Parameters Using Bayesian Averaging

Yan-Ping Chen, Renbin Yan, Szabolcs Mészáros +12

We present the stellar parameters for 59,266 high-quality spectra of 24,130 unique stars from the MaNGA Stellar Library (MaStar) in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) Data Release…

iMaNGA: mock MaNGA galaxies based on IllustrisTNG and MaStar SSPs -- II. The catalogue

Lorenza Nanni, Daniel Thomas, James Trayford +8

Strengthening the synergy between simulations and observations is essential to test galaxy formation and evolution theories. To achieve this goal, in the first paper of this series…
