Survey for Transiting Extrasolar Planets in Stellar Systems: I. Fundamental Parameters of the Open Cluster NGC 1245
Christopher J. Burke, B. Scott Gaudi, D. L. DePoy +2
We derive fundamental parameters for the old, rich open cluster NGC 1245 using BVI photometry from the MDM 1.3m and 2.4m telescopes. Based on detailed isochrone fitting, we find NG…
The Distances to Open Clusters as Derived from Main-sequence Fitting. II. Construction of Empirically Calibrated Isochrones
M. H. Pinsonneault, D. M. Terndrup, R. B. Hanson +1
We continue our series of papers on open cluster distances by comparing multicolor photometry of single stars in the Hyades to theoretical isochrones constructed with various color…
Theoretical Examination of the Lithium Depletion Boundary
Christopher J. Burke, Marc H. Pinsonneault, Alison Sills
We explore the sensitivity in open cluster ages obtained by the lithium depletion boundary (LDB) technique to the stellar model input physics. The LDB age technique is limited to o…
The Distances to Open Clusters from Main-Sequence Fitting. I. New Models and a Comparison to the Properties of the Hyades Eclipsing Binary vB 22
M. H. Pinsonneault, D. M. Terndrup, R. B. Hanson +1
In the first of a new series of papers on open cluster distances, we use updated stellar evolution models to construct an isochrone appropriate for the Hyades, and compare it with…
Why are the K dwarfs in the Pleiades so Blue?
John R. Stauffer, Burton F. Jones, Dana Backman +5
The K dwarfs in the Pleiades fall nearly one half magnitude below a main sequence isochrone when plotted in a color-magnitude diagram utilizing V magnitude as the luminosity index…
