Sinks of Light Elements in Stars - Part III
Corinne Charbonnel, Constantine P. Deliyannis, Marc H. Pinsonneault
The fragile light elements lithium, beryllium, and boron are easily destroyed in stellar interiors, and are thus superb probes of physical processes occuring in the outer stellar l…

Main-sequence fitting and the Hipparcos open cluster distance scale
M. H. Pinsonneault, D. M. Terndrup, Y. Yuan
The difference between the Hipparcos open cluster distance scale and that obtained from main sequence fitting is examined. The two color main sequence fitting technique of Pinsonne…
The Structural Effects of Rotation in Low Mass Stars
Alison Sills, M. H. Pinsonneault
We present theoretical models of rotating low mass stars (0.1 - 1.0 \Msun) to demonstrate the effect of rotation on the effective temperature and luminosity of stars. The range of…
Rotational Mixing And The Primordial Lithium Abundance
M. H. Pinsonneault, V. K. Narayanan, G. Steigman +1
There has been recent progress in the study of the angular momentum evolution of low mass stars (Krishnamurthi et al 1997a). Theoretical models can now be constructed which reprodu…
Ages of Galactic Globular Clusters from the New Yale Isochrones
Brian Chaboyer, P. Demarque, D. B. Guenther +2
A new grid of theoretical isochrones based on the Yale stellar evolution code using the OPAL and Kurucz opacities has been constructed. The grid of isochrones spans a wide range of…
