The Distance Modulus of Hyades: Distances in the Universe and Stellar Interiors
Abstract
It is shown that Hodge and Wallerstein's recent suggestion of a revision in the Hyades distance modulus does not remove the difficulties previously encountered by Iben and Bodenheimer in comparing the Hyades binaries with stellar interior models The problem seems to lie with the individual parallaxes attributed to each binary system It is also pointed out that a change in the Hyades distance modulus would not necessarily affect other distances in the Universe.
