Priam estimates of AG and E(BP − RP) for red clump stars from Bovy et al. (2014). Note that G + 5log10ϖ + 5 (= MG + AG) is an observable. The horizontal dashed lines show MG = 0.51 mag for AG = 0 and GBPGRP = 1.23 mag for E(BP − RP) = 0, which are the approximate absolute magnitude and intrinsic colour of the red clump. The diagonal line is not a fit but the locus of constant absolute magnitude where we expect extincted red clump stars to lie. Panels a and c: all red clump stars, colour-coded by relative parallax uncertainty. Panels b and d: red clump stars with parallaxes uncertainties better than 20%, colour-coded by metallicity estimates from APOGEE (Alam et al. 2015).

Current usage metrics show cumulative count of Article Views (full-text article views including HTML views, PDF and ePub downloads, according to the available data) and Abstracts Views on Vision4Press platform.

Data correspond to usage on the plateform after 2015. The current usage metrics is available 48-96 hours after online publication and is updated daily on week days.
