ESTIMATION OF DISTANCES TO STARS WITH STELLAR PARAMETERS FROM LAMOST [PDF]
, 2015 We present a method to estimate distances to stars with spectroscopically derived stellar parameters. The technique is a Bayesian approach with likelihood estimated via comparison of measured parameters to a grid of stellar isochrones, and returns a ...

The Distances of the Stars [PDF]
Nature, 1890 IT is quite a familiar illustration to represent the distances of the stars in terms of the light-year, but I am not aware that it has been noticed that the same figures which express in years the time light occupies in reaching the earth from a star, will also express in miles the distance of the star upon a scale of the radius vector of the ...

MEASURING DISTANCES AND REDDENINGS FOR A BILLION STARS: TOWARD A 3D DUST MAP FROM PAN-STARRS 1 [PDF]
, 2014 We present a method to infer reddenings and distances to stars based only on their broad-band photometry, and show how this method can be used to produce a three-dimensional (3D) dust map of the Galaxy.

A Large Catalog of Accurate Distances to Local Molecular Clouds: The Gaia DR2 Edition [PDF]
Astrophysical Journal, 2019 We present a uniform catalog of accurate distances to local molecular clouds informed by the Gaia DR2 data release. Our methodology builds on that of Schlafly et al.

New distances to RAVE stars [PDF]
, 2013 Probability density functions (pdfs) are determined from new stellar parameters for the distance moduli of stars for which the RAdial Velocity Experiment (RAVE) has obtained spectra with S/N >= 10.

The secondary star and distance of the polar V1309 Orionis [PDF]
Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2006 The first phase-resolved JHK light curves of the eclipsing polar (AM Herculis binary) V1309 Ori are presented and interpreted. We separate the contributions from the secondary star and from other sources with the aim of determining a photometric distance. Simple model calculations show that the accretion stream and the cyclotron source on the accreting

Calibration of RAVE distances to a large sample of Hipparcos stars [PDF]
, 2013 A magnitude limited population of 18 808 Hipparcos stars is used to calibrate distances for 52 794 RAVE stars, including dwarfs, giants, and pre-main sequence stars.

The Sixth Data Release of the Radial Velocity Experiment (Rave). II. Stellar Atmospheric Parameters, Chemical Abundances, and Distances [PDF]
Astronomical Journal, 2020 We present part 2 of the sixth and final Data Release (DR6) of the Radial Velocity Experiment (Rave), a magnitude-limited ( ) spectroscopic survey of Galactic stars randomly selected in Earth’s southern hemisphere. The Rave medium-resolution spectra (R ∼
