The updated BaSTI stellar evolution models and isochrones. III. White Dwarfs

Maurizio Salaris, Santi Cassisi, Adriano Pietrinferni +1

We present new cooling models for carbon-oxygen white dwarfs with both H- and He-atmospheres, covering the whole relevant mass range, to extend our updated BaSTI (a Bag of Stellar…

Precise distances from OGLE-IV member RR Lyrae stars in six bulge globular clusters

R. A. P. Oliveira, S. Ortolani, B. Barbuy +6

Context. RR Lyrae stars are useful standard candles allowing one to derive accurate distances for old star clusters. Based on the recent catalogues from OGLE-IV and Gaia Early Data…

The BAyesian STellar Algorithm (BASTA): a fitting tool for stellar studies, asteroseismology, exoplanets, and Galactic archaeology

V. Aguirre Børsen-Koch, J. L. Rørsted, A. B. Justesen +16

We introduce the public version of the BAyesian STellar Algorithm (BASTA), an open-source code written in {\tt Python} to determine stellar properties based on a set of astrophysic…

Period-Age-Metallicity and Period-Age-Color-Metallicity relations for Classical Cepheids: an application to the Gaia EDR3 sample

Giulia De Somma, Marcella Marconi, Santi Cassisi +5

Based on updated pulsation models for Classical Cepheids, computed for various assumptions about the metallicity and helium abundance, roughly representative of pulsators in the Sm…

Variable stars in Local Group Galaxies -- V. The fast and early evolution of the low-mass Eridanus II dSph galaxy

C. E. Martínez-Vázquez, M. Monelli, S. Cassisi +18

We present a detailed study of the variable star population of Eridanus II (Eri II), an ultra-faint dwarf galaxy that lies close to the Milky Way virial radius. We analyze multi-ep…

Electron conduction opacities at the transition between moderate and strong degeneracy: Uncertainties and impact on stellar models

Santi Cassisi, Alexander Y. Potekhin, Maurizio Salaris +1

Electron conduction opacities are one of the main physics inputs for the calculation of low- and intermediate-mass stellar models, and a critical question is how to bridge calculat…
