Inferring stellar properties using colours, parallaxes and an HRD prior
Stellar parameters – effective temperature, metallicity, interstellar extinction etc. – are typically estimated from a spectrum or multiband photometry. I outline a probabilistic method for estimating stellar parameters which uses not only the spectral energy distribution but also the apparent magnitude, parallax (if available) and the strong constraints provided by the Hertzsprung–Russell Diag...
متن کاملConsequences of Hipparcos Parallaxes for Stellar Evolutionary Models
Three binary systems in the Hyades open cluster (51 Tau, V818 Tau, and θ2 Tau), with known metallicity and good Johnson photometric data are used to test the validity of three independent sets of stellar evolutionary tracks. A statistical method is described and applied to the colour-magnitude diagram of the six selected components, giving rise to χ2-contours in the metallicity–age plane. The e...
متن کاملThe First Stellar Cluster
We report results from numerical simulations of star formation in the early universe that focus on gas at very high densities and very low metallicities. We argue that the gas in the central regions of protogalactic halos will fragment as long as it carries sufficient angular momentum. Rotation leads to the build-up of massive disk-like structures which fragment to form protostars. At metallici...
متن کاملThe first galaxies: structure and stellar populations
The Hubble Deep Fields continue to be a valuable resource for studying the distant universe, particularly at z > 2 where their comoving volume becomes large enough to encompass several hundred L∗ galaxies or their progenitors. Here I present recent results from a near–infrared imaging survey of the HDF–North with NICMOS, which provides structural and photometric information in the optical rest ...
متن کاملEvolution of the First Stellar Generations
Although the theoretical study of very low metallicity (Z) and metal–free stars is not new, their importance has recently greatly increased since two related fields have been developing rapidly. The first is cosmological simulations of the formation of the first stars and of the reionisation period. The second is the observations of extremely metal poor stars. In this paper, we present pre–supe...
