A530 Galaxies: Class Tools
General Tools
Model of the Milky Way
Besancon model of the Galaxy - This web tool will
simulate a sample of stars belonging to the Milky Way (including
their colors, magnitudes, and velocities) for an input direction and
area of observation.
Stellar Isochrones
Darthmouth Stellar Evolution Database - This web tool presents
a stellar evolution database in a user friendly way. Created by
Aaron Dotter while a graduate student at Dartmouth, this is a
one-stop shop for both synthetic and empirical isochrones and stellar
luminosity functions. These can be generated at a wide range of
ages, [Fe/H], [alpha/Fe] in just about any filter you could want. This paper
describes the database in detail.
