[BPASS] Phases of individual stellar models? #51

Closed RyotaInagaki1 closed 4 years ago

RyotaInagaki1 commented 4 years ago

Is there a 1 to 1 and user accessible mapping from stellar model to the phase (pre-main sequence, main sequence, white dwarf, black hole, neutron star, etc.) in the BPASS stellar model and stellar population directories?

HeloiseS commented 4 years ago

no.

To determine whether a model is a white dwarf an MS star or a giant you need to check the surface gravity.

For black holes and neutron stars you need to pair the BPASS models with TUI. for more details, you can directly contact j.eldridge@auckland.ac.nz

Are black holes and neutron stars in the individual BPASS Stellar evolution models?

HeloiseS commented 4 years ago

if you are asking whether black holes and neutron stars are modelled by BPASS, they are not. I strongly recommend taking a look at the instrument paper: https://ui.adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2017PASA...34...58E/abstract
