Bayesian distances and extinctions for giants observed by Kepler and APOGEE
Bayesian distances and extinctions for giants observed by Kepler and APOGEE
We present a first determination of distances and extinctions for individual stars in the first release of the APOKASC catalogue, built from the joint efforts of the Apache Point Observatory Galactic Evolution Experiment (APOGEE) and the Kepler Asteroseismic Science Consortium (KASC). Our method takes into account the spectroscopic constraints derived …
