  • The Kepler Cluster Study: Stellar Rotation in NGC 6811 
    Meibom, Søren; Barnes, Sydney A.; Latham, David W.; Batalha, Natalie; Borucki, William J.; Koch, David G.; Basri, Gibor; Walkowicz, Lucianne M.; Janes, Kenneth A.; Jenkins, Jon; Van Cleve, Jeffrey E.; Haas, Michael R.; Bryson, Stephen T.; Dupree, Andrea K.; Furesz, Gabor; Szentgyorgyi, Andrew H.; Buchhave, Lars A.; Clarke, Bruce D.; Twicken, Joseph D.; Quintana, Elisa V. (2011)
    We present rotation periods for 71 single dwarf members of the open cluster NGC 6811 determined using photometry from NASA's Kepler mission. The results are the first from The Kepler Cluster Study, which combines ...
  • NGC 6811: An Intermediate-age Cluster in the Kepler Field 
    Janes, Kenneth; Barnes, Sydney A.; Meibom, Søren; Hoq, Sadia (2013)
    NGC 6811 is one of the four open clusters located in the Kepler spacecraft field of view. We obtained UBVRI photometry of the cluster on six nights (four of them photometric) with the 1.08 m Hall and 1.83 m Perkins telescopes ...
  • Open Clusters in the Kepler Field. II. NGC 6866 
    Janes, Kenneth; Barnes, Sydney A.; Meibom, Søren; Hoq, Sadia (2014)
    We have developed a maximum-likelihood procedure to fit theoretical isochrones to the observed cluster color-magnitude diagrams of NGC 6866, an open cluster in the Kepler spacecraft field of view. The Markov chain Monte ...
  • The same frequency of planets inside and outside open clusters of stars 
    Meibom, Søren; Torres, Guillermo; Fressin, Francois; Latham, David W.; Rowe, Jason F.; Ciardi, David R.; Bryson, Steven T.; Rogers, Leslie A.; Henze, Christopher E.; Janes, Kenneth; Barnes, Sydney A.; Marcy, Geoffrey W.; Isaacson, Howard; Fischer, Debra A.; Howell, Steve B.; Horch, Elliott P.; Jenkins, Jon M.; Schuler, Simon C.; Crepp, Justin (2013)
    Most stars and their planets form in open clusters. Over 95 per cent of such clusters have stellar densities too low (less than a hundred stars per cubic parsec) to withstand internal and external dynamical stresses and ...
  • A spin-down clock for cool stars from observations of a 2.5-billion-year-old cluster 
    Meibom, Søren; Barnes, Sydney A.; Platais, Imants; Gilliland, Ronald L.; Latham, David W.; Mathieu, Robert D. (2015)
    The ages of the most common stars--low-mass (cool) stars like the Sun, and smaller--are difficult to derive because traditional dating methods use stellar properties that either change little as the stars age or are hard ...
