Stellar Spins in the Pleiades, Praesepe, and M35 Open Clusters

We analyze spectroscopic and photometric data to determine the projected inclinations of stars in three open clusters: the Pleiades, Praesepe, and M35. We determine the sin i values of 42, 35, and 67 stars in each cluster, respectively, and from their distributions we find that isotropic spins and m...
