Table 8

Effects of the estimated random errors in the atmospheric parameters on the estimation of current masses and lifetimes from evolutionary models.

Notes. In each case the relevant atmospheric parameter has been increased although tests showed that decreases led to similar results but with the sign changed. All mass estimates are in units of the solar mass. For convenience the evolutionary masses have been reproduced from Table 7.
