Barnes–Evans relations for late–type giants and dwarfs
نویسنده
چکیده
The visual surface brightness of K/M giants and dwarfs with near-solar metallicity differ slightly in agreement with the gravity effects predicted by recent theoretical models. We show that M-dwarfs display also a metallicity dependence of the surface brightness in the infrared K-band in agreement with theory. Based on these results, we present improved Barnes-Evans type relations and estimate the radii of 60 single or presumed M and K-dwarfs.

Evans relations for late – type giants and dwarfs
ASTRONOMY AND ASTROPHYSICS Barnes–Evans relations for late–type giants and dwarfs Abstract. The visual surface brightness of K/M giants and dwarfs with near-solar metallicity differ slightly in agreement with the gravity effects predicted by recent theoretical models. We show that M-dwarfs display also a metallicity dependence of the surface brightness in the infrared K-band in agreement with t...
متن کاملBarnes-Evans relations for dwarfs with an application to the determination of distances to cataclysmic variables
Context. Barnes-Evans type relations provide an empirical relationship between the surface brightness of stars and their color. They are widely used for measuring the distances to stars of known radii, as the Roche-lobe filling secondaries in cataclysmic variables (CVs). Aims. The calibration of the surface brightness of field dwarfs of near-solar metalicity with spectral types A0 to L8 covers ...

متن کاملImproved Baade-Wesselink surface-brightness relations
Recent, and older accurate, data on (limb-darkened) angular diameters is compiled for 221 stars, as well as BV RIJK[12][25] magnitudes for those objects, when available. Nine stars (all M-giants or supergiants) showing excess in the [12− 25] colour are excluded in the analysis as this may indicate the present of dust influencing the optical and near-infrared colours as well. Based on this large...
