摘要: Context. Stellar parameters are among the most important characteristics in studies of stars, which are based on atmosphere models in traditional methods. However, time cost and brightness limits restrain the efficiency of spectral observations. The J-PLUS is an observational campaign that aims to obtain photometry in 12 bands. Owing to its characteristics, J-PLUS data have become a valuable resource for studies of stars. Machine learning provides powerful tools to efficiently analyse large data sets, such as the one from J-PLUS, and enable us to expand the research domain to stellar parameters. Aims. The main goal of this study is to construct a SVR algorithm to estimate stellar parameters of the stars in the first data release of the J-PLUS observational campaign. Methods. The training data for the parameters regressions is featured with 12-waveband photometry from J-PLUS, and is cross-identified with spectrum-based catalogs. These catalogs are from the LAMOST, the APOGEE, and the SEGUE. We then label them with the stellar effective temperature, the surface gravity and the metallicity. Ten percent of the sample is held out to apply a blind test. We develop a new method, a multi-model approach in order to fully take into account the uncertainties of both the magnitudes and stellar parameters. The method utilizes more than two hundred models to apply the uncertainty analysis. Results. We present a catalog of 2,493,424 stars with the Root Mean Square Error of 160K in the effective temperature regression, 0.35 in the surface gravity regression and 0.25 in the metallicity regression. We also discuss the advantages of this multi-model approach and compare it to other machine-learning methods.

摘要: Context. The Javalambre Photometric Local Universe Survey (J-PLUS) has obtained precise photometry in twelve specially designed filters for large numbers of Galactic stars. Deriving their precise stellar atmospheric parameters and individual elemental abundances is crucial for studies of Galactic structure, and the assembly history and chemical evolution of our Galaxy. Aims. Our goal is to estimate not only stellar parameters (effective temperature, Teff, surface gravity, log g, and metallicity, [Fe/H]), but also [{\alpha}/Fe] and four elemental abundances ([C/Fe], [N/Fe], [Mg/Fe], and [Ca/Fe]) using data from J-PLUS DR1. Methods. By combining recalibrated photometric data from J-PLUS DR1, Gaia DR2, and spectroscopic labels from LAMOST, we design and train a set of cost-sensitive neural networks, the CSNet, to learn the non-linear mapping from stellar colors to their labels. Results. We have achieved precisions of {\delta}Teff {\sim}55K, {\delta}logg{\sim}0.15dex, and {\delta}[Fe/H]{\sim}0.07dex, respectively, over a wide range of temperature, surface gravity, and metallicity. The uncertainties of the abundance estimates for [{\alpha}/Fe] and the four individual elements are in the range 0.04-0.08 dex. We compare our parameter and abundance estimates with those from other spectroscopic catalogs such as APOGEE and GALAH, and find an overall good agreement. Conclusions. Our results demonstrate the potential of well-designed, high-quality photometric data for determinations of stellar parameters as well as individual elemental abundances. Applying the method to J-PLUS DR1, we have obtained the aforementioned parameters for about two million stars, providing an outstanding data set for chemo-dynamic analyses of the Milky Way. The catalog of the estimated parameters is publicly accessible.

摘要: We present the photometric calibration of the twelve optical passbands for the Javalambre Photometric Local Universe Survey (J-PLUS) third data release (DR3), comprising 1642 pointings of two square degrees each. We selected nearly 1.5 million main sequence stars with a signal-to-noise ratio larger than ten in the twelve J-PLUS passbands and available low-resolution (R = 20-80) spectrum from the blue and red photometers (BP/RP) in Gaia DR3. We compared the synthetic photometry from BP/RP spectra with the J-PLUS instrumental magnitudes, after correcting for the magnitude and color terms between both systems, to obtain an homogeneous photometric solution for J-PLUS. To circumvent the current limitations in the absolute calibration of the BP/RP spectra, the absolute color scale was derived using the locus of 109 white dwarfs closer than 100 pc with a negligible interstellar extinction. Finally, the absolute flux scale was anchored to the Panoramic Survey Telescope and Rapid Response System (Pan-STARRS) photometry in the r band. The precision of the J-PLUS photometric calibration, estimated from duplicated objects observed in adjacent pointings and by comparison with the spectro-photometric standard star GD 153, is ~12 mmag in u, J0378, and J0395; and ~7 mmag in J0410, J0430, g, J0515, r, J0660, i, J0861, and z. The estimated accuracy in the calibration along the surveyed area is better than 1% for all the passbands. The Gaia BP/RP spectra provide a high-quality, homogeneous photometric reference in the optical range across the full-sky, in spite of their current limitations as an absolute reference. The calibration method for J-PLUS DR3 reaches an absolute precision and accuracy of 1% in the twelve optical filters within an area of 3284 square degrees.
