Deriving Stellar Properties, Distances, and Reddenings using Photometry and Astrometry with BRUTUS
Joshua S. Speagle, Catherine Zucker, Angus Beane +18
We present brutus, an open source Python package for quickly deriving stellar properties, distances, and reddenings to stars based on grids of stellar models constrained by photome…
MINESweeper: Spectrophotometric Modeling of Stars in the Gaia Era
Phillip A. Cargile, Charlie Conroy, Benjamin D. Johnson +4
We present MINESweeper, a tool to measure stellar parameters by jointly fitting observed spectra and broadband photometry to model isochrones and spectral libraries. This approach…
Investigating the Metallicity-Mixing Length Relation
Lucas S. Viani, Sarbani Basu, Joel J. M. Ong +2
Stellar models typically use the mixing length approximation as a way to implement convection in a simplified manner. While conventionally the value of the mixing length parameter,…
Calibrating Convective properties of Solar-like Stars in the Kepler Field of View
Ana Bonaca, Joel D. Tanner, Sarbani Basu +24
Stellar models generally use simple parametrizations to treat convection. The most widely used parametrization is the so-called "Mixing Length Theory" where the convective eddy siz…
Electronic absorption spectra of hydrogenated protonated naphthalene and proflavine
A. Bonaca, G. Bilalbegovic
We study hydrogenated cations of two polycyclic hydrocarbon molecules as models of hydrogenated organic species that form in the interstellar medium. Optical spectra of the hydroge…
