A new Hyper-Runaway star discovered from LAMOST and GAIA: ejected almost in the galactic rotation direction

Yin-Bi Li, A-Li Luo, Gang Zhao +11

In this paper, we report the discovery of a new late-B type unbound hyper-runaway star (LAMOST-HVS4) from the LAMOST spectroscopic surveys. According to its atmospheric parameters,…

Mass and Age of Red Giant Branch Stars Observed with LAMOST and \emph{Kepler}

Yaqian Wu, Maosheng Xiang, Shaolan Bi +13

Obtaining accurate and precise masses and ages for large numbers of giant stars is of great importance for unraveling the assemblage history of the Galaxy. In this paper, we estima…

Young and Intermediate-age Distance Indicators

Smitha Subramanian, Massimo Marengo, Anupam Bhardwaj +4

Distance measurements beyond geometrical and semi-geometrical methods, rely mainly on standard candles. As the name suggests, these objects have known luminosities by virtue of the…

Stellar loci II. a model-free estimate of the binary fraction for field FGK stars

Haibo Yuan, Xiaowei Liu, Maosheng Xiang +2

We propose a Stellar Locus OuTlier (SLOT) method to determine the binary fraction of main-sequence stars statistically. The method is sensitive to neither the period nor mass-ratio…

Stellar loci I. Metallicity dependence and intrinsic widths

Haibo Yuan, Xiaowei Liu, Maosheng Xiang +2

Stellar loci are widely used for selection of interesting outliers, reddening determinations, and calibrations. However, hitherto the dependence of stellar loci on metallicity has…
