Payne4GAIN: NLTE Corrections for Red Giants in Milky Way Mapper using H-Band Neural Network Emulators

Pierre Thibodeaux, Alexander P. Ji, Nicholas Storm +12

The majority of spectroscopic surveys assume local thermodynamic equilibrium (LTE) during the modeling of stellar spectra. This assumption begins to break down for luminous stars,…

A Probabilistic Framework for Population Studies of the Solar Neighborhood: Application to SDSS-V and Gaia

Ilija Medan, Keivan G. Stassun, Zachary Way +8

Studies of the Solar Neighborhood require spectroscopic follow-up of stars identified in astrometric surveys to fully characterize their physical properties. The SDSS-V Solar Neigh…

Searching for Stellar Activity Cycles using Flares II: The TESS CVZ

Tobin M. Wainer, Holland M. Stuart, Guadalupe Tovar Mendoza +3

Magnetic activity cycles provide a fundamental constraint on stellar dynamos, but remain difficult to identify beyond the Sun. However, recent studies have shown that flares offer…

BOSS-CLAM: Utilizing a Constrained Linear Absorption Model to Infer Stellar Parameters from BOSS Spectra

Ilija Medan, Andrew R. Casey, Alexander P. Ji +13

Large spectroscopic surveys require robust pipelines capable of inferring stellar parameters over a wide range of the Hertzsprung-Russell (HR) diagram from data of varying quality.…

A constrained linear model for continuum normalization of stellar spectra

Andrew R. Casey, Adam Wheeler, Megan Bedell +3

Inferring stellar parameters and chemical abundances by forward modeling stellar spectra usually requires a spectral synthesis code, or an emulator constructed from a curated train…

Perhaps there is no brown dwarf desert? A study of sub-stellar companions with Gaia DR3

A. L. Wallace, A. R. Casey

The brown dwarf desert describes a range of orbital periods (<5 years) in which fewer brown dwarf-mass companions have been observed around Sun-like stars, when compared to planets…
