Asteroseismic observations are crucial to constrain stellar models with precision.Bayesian Estimation of STellar Parameters (BESTP) is a tool that utilizes Bayesian statistics and nested sampling Monte Carlo algorithm to search for the stellar models that best match a given set of classical and asteroseismic constraints from observations.The computation and evaluation of models are efficiently performed in an automated and multi-threaded way.To illustrate the capabilities of BESTP,we estimate fundamental stellar properties for the Sun and the red-giant star HD 222076.In both cases,we find models that are consistent with observations.We also evaluate the improvement in the precision of stellar parameters when the oscillation frequencies of individual modes are included as constraints,compared to the case when only the large frequency separation is included.For the solar case,the uncertainties of estimated masses,radii and ages are reduced by 0.7%,0.3% and 8% respectively.For HD 222076,they are reduced even more noticeably by 2%,0.5% and 4.7% respectively.We also note an improvement of 10%for the age of HD 222076 when the Gaia parallax is included as a constraint compared to the case when only the large separation is included as a constraint.

The discovery of massive galaxies at high redshifts,especially the passive ones,poses a big challenge for the current standard galaxy formation models.Here we use the semi-analytic galaxy formation model developed by Henriques et al.to explore the formati
In deep space exploration,many engineering and scientific requirements require the accuracy of the measured Doppler frequency to be as high as possible.In our paper,we analyze the possible frequency measurement points of the third-order phase-locked loop
In deep space exploration,it is necessary to improve the accuracy of frequency measurement to meet the requirements of precise orbit determination and various scientific studies.A phase detector is one of the key modules that restricts the tracking perfor

Prominence plumes are evacuated upflows that emerge from bubbles below prominences,whose formation mechanism is still unclear.Here we present a detailed study of plumes in a quiescent prominence using the high-resolution Hα filtergrams at the line center
The red giant branch (RGB) of globular clusters (GCs) is home to some exotic stars,which may provide clues on the formation of multiple stellar populations in GCs.It is well known that binary interactions are responsible for many exotic stars.Thus,it is i
