VizieR Online Data Catalog: Stellar parameters of 372 giant stars (Stock+, 2018)
Abstract
For the 372 giant stars we studied, we provide in our table the determined stellar parameters which includes mass (M), radius (R), age (A), surface gravity (G), effective temperature (T) and luminosity (L). For each stellar parameter we provide the value that was determined from the maximum (mode) of the probability density function (PDF) as well as the mean value of the PDF for this stellar parameter. We also provide the 1-sigma and 3-sigma confidence interval for each stellar parameter. Additionally, each giant can have two solutions of stellar parameters depending on the assigned post-main sequence evolutionary stage which can be red-giant branch (RGB) or horizontal branch (HB). We provide a probability (P) for each case. Stars with less 1% probability for a specific evolutionary stage have no determined stellar parameters for this specific solution. The tabulated stellar masses and surface gravities are corrected with the Reimer's mass loss along the RGB. Input parameters for the determination of the tabulated solutions were parallaxes by van Leeuwen (2007, Cat. I/311), metallicities by Hekker & Melendez (2007A&A...475.1003H) and BV photometry included in the Hipparcos catalog (ESA, 1997. Cat. I/239). We compared these observables to grids of stellar evolutionary models by Bressan et al. (2012MNRAS.427..127B) using Bayesian inference.
