An optimized Hβ index for disentangling stellar population ages [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2009
We have defined a new H_βabsorption index definition, H$_{β_o}$, which has been optimized as an age indicator for old and intermediate age stellar populations. Rather than using stellar spectra, we employed for this purpose a library of stellar population SEDs of different ages and metallicities at moderately high spectral resolution.

Spectroscopic Ages for 4 Million Main-sequence Dwarf Stars from LAMOST DR10 Estimated with a Data-driven Approach

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
Stellar age determination for large samples of stars opens new avenues for a broad range of astronomical sciences. While precise stellar ages for evolved stars have been derived from large ground- and space-based stellar surveys, reliable age ...

Three-dimensional Simulations of Massive Stars. II. Age Dependence

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We present 3D full star simulations, reaching up to 90% of the total stellar radius, for three 7 M _⊙ stars of different ages: zero-age main sequence (ZAMS), mid–main sequence (midMS), and terminal-age main sequence (TAMS).

Bayesian isochrone fitting and stellar ages

open access: yes, 2014
Stellar evolution theory has been extraordinarily successful at explaining the different phases under which stars form, evolve and die. While the strongest constraints have traditionally come from binary stars, the advent of asteroseismology is bringing ...

ChronoFlow: A Data-driven Model for Gyrochronology

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Gyrochronology is a technique for constraining stellar ages using rotation periods, which change over a star’s main-sequence (MS) lifetime due to magnetic braking. This technique shows promise for MS FGKM stars, where other methods are imprecise. However,

The nature and origin of disky elliptical galaxies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
The observational trend that disky elliptical galaxies exhibit younger luminosity- weighted ages than boxy ellipticals is investigated. The presence of a possible young stellar disk embedded in these galaxies is explored by comparing kinematics derived ...

Using Gravity as an Age Indicator for Young Stars

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
The age of a young star is difficult to measure and yet is a fundamental property that is essential for understanding stellar evolution. Accurate age indicators across the early phases of low-mass stars are scarce and often rely on properties of the ...
