Deriving Stellar Properties, Distances, and Reddenings using Photometry and Astrometry with BRUTUS
Joshua S. Speagle, Catherine Zucker, Angus Beane +18
We present brutus, an open source Python package for quickly deriving stellar properties, distances, and reddenings to stars based on grids of stellar models constrained by photome…
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…
In the Galactic disk, stellar [Fe/H] and age predict orbits and precise [X/Fe]
Melissa K. Ness, Kathryn V. Johnston, Kirsten Blancato +4
We explore the structure of the element abundance--age--orbit distribution of the stars in the Milky Way's low- disk, by (re-)deriving precise [Fe/H], [X/Fe] and ages, along wit…
Actions are weak stellar age indicators in the Milky Way disk
Angus Beane, Melissa K. Ness, Megan Bedell
The orbital properties of stars in the disk are signatures of their formation, but they are also expected to change over time due to the dynamical evolution of the Galaxy. Stellar…
