A new method checks how models read spectra of HD 209458 b and HAT-P-26 b

A new approach helps explain how computer models infer exoplanet atmospheres from light. Tested on observations of HD 209458 b and HAT-P-26 b, it accounts for links between nearby wavelengths that simpler tests overlook. The results show which parts ...

HD 100546 colors favor large carbon dust aggregates

Published: today

The red optical-to-near-infrared colors of the disk around HD 100546 point to dust made of amorphous-carbon aggregates with large component grains. Models show that polarized-light colors can reveal dust properties more clearly than total brightness ...

About Stellar Catalog

Working with real data

Data in Stellar Catalog come from trusted scientific sources. Primary source is Gaia space telescope mapping the stars in Milky Way. Other sources include research papers, Simbad catalog and Exoplanet.eu database.

Estimated values

Objects listed in the Stellar Catalog often have values that are estimates. These estimates are determined using their known characteristics, such as spectral type, brightness across different wavelengths, distance from a star, and other factors.

Fresh and validated

Stellar Catalog is continuously updated with new information from research papers. Stellar and planetary data are validated by automatic processes as well as humans.
