Meibom et al. 2011 Plots

This article does not seem to have any overlapping targets with DEBRIS. (though it does have both period and B-V colors, and might be useful as a calibration tool)


Taking only those points which represent solid body rotators (class "I") and overplotting the "rotation isochrones" according to the equation:
P=(t^n)*a(B-V-b)^c
with the following values for a,b,c, and n from Meibom et. al. 2011:


These are the most recent values for these 4 parameters, but the best way to start out would be to do our own observations of an open cluster and derive our own values for comparison. 

*note: the crosses are labeled incorrectly as "Meibom01"...they should be "Meibom11"
