Apocenter Pile-up: Origin of the Stellar Halo Density Break [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal, 2018
We measure the orbital properties of halo stars using seven-dimensional information provided by Gaia and the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. A metal-rich population of stars, present in both local main sequence stars and more distant blue horizontal branch ...

Near-infrared spectroscopy in NGC 7538

open access: yes, 2010
The characterisation of the stellar population toward young high-mass star-forming regions allows to constrain fundamental cluster properties like distance and age.

Evolution of the galaxy stellar mass functions and UV luminosity functions at z = 6−9 in the Hubble Frontier Fields [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2018
We present new measurements of the evolution of the galaxy stellar mass functions (GSMF) and UV luminosity functions (UV LF) for galaxies from $z=6-9$ within the Frontier Field cluster MACSJ0416.1-2403 and its parallel field.

Distance Measurements and Stellar Population Properties via Surface Brightness Fluctuations

open access: yes, 2012
Surface Brightness Fluctuations (SBFs) are one of the most powerful techniques to measure the distance and to constrain the unresolved stellar content of extragalactic systems.

Distance errors and the stellar luminosity function [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 1989
Etude de la fonction de luminosite stellaire dans la region du pole galactique nord. La methode est basee sur les parallaxes photometriques derivees de l'indice de couleur V-I. Il est demontre que l'application du biais classique de Malmquist conduit a une fonction de luminosite incorrecte.

European Standard Clinical Practice Guideline and EXPeRT Recommendations for the Diagnosis and Management of Gastroenteropancreatic Neuroendocrine Neoplasms in Children and Adolescents

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pediatric gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (GEP‐NENs) are extremely rare and clinically heterogeneous. Management has largely been extrapolated from adult practice. This European Standard Clinical Practice Guideline (ESCP), developed by the EXPeRT network in collaboration with adult NEN experts, provides (adult) evidence ...

SpecDis: Value Added Distance Catalog for 4 Million Stars from DESI Year-1 Data

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
We present the S pec D is value-added stellar distance catalog accompanying DESI Data Release 1. S pec D is trains a feed-forward neural network (NN) with Gaia parallaxes and gets the distance estimates. To build up an unbiased training sample, we do not

Clustering of Local Group distances: publication bias or correlated measurements? III. The Small Magellanic Cloud

open access: yes, 2015
Aiming at providing a firm mean distance estimate to the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC), and thus to place it within the internally consistent Local Group distance framework we recently established, we compiled the current-largest database of published ...

Stellar Distances by the Baade-Wesselink Method [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1997
Galactic and extragalactic distances to Cepheid variable stars according to a modern realization of the geometric Baade-Wesselink method are presented. Reliable results as accurate as few percent are currently achievable, allowing the cosmic distance scale calibration to be significantly improved with respect to previous calibrations.

StarHorse : a Bayesian tool for determining stellar masses, ages, distances, and extinctions for field stars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Understanding the formation and evolution of our Galaxy requires accurate distances, ages and chemistry for large populations of field stars. Here we present several updates to our spectro-photometric distance code, that can now also be used to estimate ...
