Simultaneous Bayesian estimation of distances and ages from isochrones: SDSS and solar neighborhood FGK stars
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 01 October 2007
Abstract
By using a procedure based on the Bayesian probability theory we computed reliable and self–consistent estimates of absolute magnitude and age for about 2000 FKG spectral-type stars from SDSS–DR5, ELODIE, and INDO–US surveys, with effective temperature, surface gravity, and metallicity values homogeneously derived.
