~3 Myr ~ 3Gyr恒星年龄估算

Stellar Age Estimation from ~3 Myr to ~3 Gyr

Lynne Hillenbrand, Eric Mamajek, John Stauffer, David Soderblom, John Carpenter, Michael Meyer

摘要:

本文介绍了利用恒星的理论演化轨迹、自转、自转驱动的色球和日冕活动以及锂的贫化等指标定量估算恒星年龄的最新进展。我们的重点是大约这么大的质量和太阳金属量的恒星比太阳年轻。我们试图描述系统和随机误差的来源,然后推导出“最佳”年龄与各种年龄估计方法中出现的年龄离散。这些技术的主要应用是碎片盘的演变。

英文摘要:

We present recent progress on quantitative estimation of stellar ages using ind icators such as theoretical evolutionary tracks, rotation, rotation-driven chrom ospheric and coronal activity, and lithium depletion. Our focus is on roughly so lar-mass and solar-metallicity stars younger than the Sun. We attempt to charac terize the systematic and random error sources and then derive "best" ages alo ng with the dispersion in age arising among the various age estimation methods. Our main application of these techniques is to the evolution of debris disks.
