Stellar Rotation in Kepler: Forward Modeling of the Kepler Period Distribution
The Kepler mission has made it possible to detect the signatures of surface rotation in tens of thousands of stars across many different spectral types, ages, and evolutionary states. While it is tempting to use these rotation rates as a means to determine the ages of field stars in Kepler via the g...
