Fundamental stellar parameters of benchmark stars from CHARA interferometry -- III. Giant and subgiant stars

I. Karovicova, T. R. White, T. Nordlander +3

Large spectroscopic surveys of the Milky Way need to be calibrated against a sample of benchmark stars to ensure the reliable determination of atmospheric parameters. We present ne…

Fundamental stellar parameters of benchmark stars from CHARA interferometry -- II. Dwarf stars

I. Karovicova, T. R. White, T. Nordlander +3

Stellar models applied to large stellar surveys of the Milky Way need to be properly tested against a sample of stars with highly reliable fundamental stellar parameters. We have e…

Fundamental stellar parameters of benchmark stars from CHARA interferometry. I. Metal-poor stars

I. Karovicova, T. R. White, T. Nordlander +4

Benchmark stars are crucial as validating standards for current as well as future large stellar surveys of the Milky Way. However, the number of suitable metal-poor benchmarks is c…

Precision angular diameters for 16 southern stars with VLTI/PIONIER

Adam D. Rains, Michael J. Ireland, Timothy R. White +2

In the current era of Gaia and large, high signal to noise stellar spectroscopic surveys, there is an unmet need for a reliable library of fundamentally calibrated stellar effectiv…

4MOST: Project overview and information for the First Call for Proposals

R. S. de Jong, O. Agertz, A. Agudo Berbel +335

We introduce the 4-metre Multi-Object Spectroscopic Telescope (4MOST), a new high-multiplex, wide-field spectroscopic survey facility under development for the four-metre-class Vis…

Accurate effective temperatures of the metal-poor benchmark stars HD 140283, HD 122563 and HD 103095 from CHARA interferometry

I. Karovicova, T. R. White, T. Nordlander +14

Large stellar surveys of the Milky Way require validation with reference to a set of "benchmark" stars whose fundamental properties are well-determined. For metal-poor benchmark st…
