Filter Design for Estimating the Stellar Metallicity of Metal-poor Stars from Gaia XP Spectra
Ruifeng Shi, Yang Huang, Kai Xiao +5
The estimation of stellar atmospheric parameters for large-scale samples, particularly metal-poor stars, is a cornerstone of Galactic archaeology. In this work, we optimized a phot…
Identification of BHB stars using Synthetic SkyMapper colors from Gaia XP spectra
Guozhen Hu, Yang Huang, Wenyuan Cui +9
Blue horizontal-branch (BHB) stars are ideal tracers for mapping the structure of Galactic stellar halo. Traditionally, BHB sample stars are built from large-scale spectroscopic su…
The Mini-SiTian Array: Imaging Processing Pipeline
Kai Xiao, Zhirui Li, Yang Huang +19
As a pathfinder of the SiTian project, the Mini-SiTian (MST) array, employed three commercial CMOS cameras, represents a next-generation, cost-effective optical time-domain survey…
The Mini-SiTian Array: first-two-year operation
Min He, Hong Wu, Liang Ge +70
The SiTian project, designed to utilize 60 telescopes distributed across multiple sites in China, is a next-generation time-domain survey initiative. As a pathfinder for the SiTian…
Photometric Stellar Parameters for 195,478 Kepler Input Catalog (KIC) Stars
Bowen Zhang, Yang Huang, Timothy C. Beers +9
The stellar atmospheric parameters and physical properties of stars in the Kepler Input Catalog (KIC) are of great significance for the study of exoplanets, stellar activity, and a…
