摘要:

我们提出了贝叶斯消光和恒星工具(BEAST),一个概率的方法来建模的尘埃熄灭光度光谱能量分布的单个恒星,同时占观测的不确定性常见的大型解决恒星调查。给定一组光度测量和观测不确定性模型,BEAST使用恒星演化和大气模型推断恒星源的物理性质,并使用新开发的混合物模型约束视线消光,该混合物模型包括在本地组中看到的全部尘埃消光曲线。BEAST是专门制定用于大型多波段调查解决恒星星族。我们的方法占测量的不确定性和它们之间的任何协方差,由于恒星拥挤(系统偏差和偏差的不确定性)和绝对通量校准,从而将测量的全部信息内容。我们说明的准确性和精度可能与野兽使用全色哈勃仙女座宝库的数据。虽然BEAST是为这次巡天而开发的,但它可以很容易地应用于类似的现有和计划中的解析恒星巡天。

英文摘要:

We present the Bayesian Extinction And Stellar Tool (BEAST), a probabilistic approach to modeling the dust extinguished photometric spectral energy distribution of an individual star while accounting for observational uncertainties common to large resolved star surveys. Given a set of photometric measurements and an observational uncertainty model, the BEAST infers the physical properties of the stellar source using stellar evolution and atmosphere models and constrains the line of sight extinction using a newly developed mixture model that encompasses the full range of dust extinction curves seen in the Local Group. The BEAST is specifically formulated for use with large multi-band surveys of resolved stellar populations. Our approach accounts for measurement uncertainties and any covariance between them due to stellar crowding (both systematic biases and uncertainties in the bias) and absolute flux calibration, thereby incorporating the full information content of the measurement. We illustrate the accuracy and precision possible with the BEAST using data from the Panchromatic Hubble Andromeda Treasury. While the BEAST has been developed for this survey, it can be easily applied to similar existing and planned resolved star surveys.
