  4. Collaborators • R. Goldsbury, H. Richer, K. Woodley - UBC • J. Anderson, J. Kalirai - STScI • B. Hansen, D. Reitzel, M. Rich - UCLA • A. Dotter - UVic • G. Fahlman, P. Stetson - HIA/NRC • J. Hurley - Swinburne • I. King - UW • M. Shara - AMNH

  5. WD Cooling Model and N6397 Note: Excellent fit through most cooling region At bright end real WDs too red or too bright - radii too large or minor colour transformation problems? At faint end real stars turn blue (CIA) faster than models See poster by Rich et al. Model from Bergeron (2008) Model from Bergeron (2008)

  6. Model Fit to Data • Age = 12.21 +/-0.35 Gyr • Includes opacity from red wing L (Kowalski 2006) • Systematic errors from different models not included Comparison N6397 and M4 Luminosity Functions Hansen et al 2007

  7. Galactic Disk is Younger than Halo • Dots = disk • Line = M4 (halo) • M4 LF fainter WDs • M4 older than disk • Disk age 7.5±1.0 Gyr
