Testing the Chronometric Accuracy of Stellar Evolution Models Using Young Stars in Open Clusters
Comparisons between empirical data and theoretical stellar evolutionary models indicate large systematic errors in the stellar ages resulting from different age-dating techniques. Nevertheless, these chronometric tools have been used to determine fundamental timescales in many different branches of...
