On the zero point constant of the bolometric correction scale

Eker, Zeki; Bakiş, Volkan; Soydugan, Faruk; Bilir, Selçuk (Oxford University Press, 2021)

Arbitrariness attributed to the zero-point constant of the V-band bolometric corrections (BCV) and its relation to ‘bolometric magnitude of a star ought to be brighter than its visual magnitude’ and ‘bolometric corrections ...
Standard stellar luminosities: what are typical and limiting accuracies in the era after Gaia?

Eker, Zeki; Soydugan, Faruk; Bilir, Selçuk; Bakiş, Volkan (Oxford University Press, 2021)

Methods of obtaining stellar luminosities (L) have been revised and a new concept, standard stellar luminosity, has been defined. In this paper, we study three methods: (i) a direct method from radii and effective temperatures; ...
