abstract
The XXIXth IAU General Assembly in Honolulu adopted IAU 2015 Resolution B2 on recommended zero points for the absolute and apparent bolometric magnitude scales. The resolution was proposed by the IAU Inter-Division A-G Working Group on Nominal Units for Stellar and Planetary Astronomy after consulting with a broad spectrum of researchers from the astronomical community. Resolution B2 resolves the long-standing absence of an internationally-adopted zero point for the absolute and apparent bolometric magnitude scales. Resolution B2 defines the zero point of the absolute bolometric magnitude scale such that a radiation source with $M_{\rm Bol}$ = 0 has luminosity L$_{\circ}$ = 3.0128e28 W. The zero point of the apparent bolometric magnitude scale ($m_{\rm Bol}$ = 0) corresponds to irradiance $f_{\circ}$ = 2.518021002e-8 W/m$^2$. The zero points were chosen so that the nominal solar luminosity (3.828e26 W) adopted by IAU 2015 Resolution B3 corresponds approximately to $M_{\rm Bol}$(Sun) = 4.74, the value most commonly adopted in recent literature. The nominal total solar irradiance (1361 W/m$^2$) adopted in IAU 2015 Resolution B3 corresponds approximately to apparent bolometric magnitude $m_{\rm bol}$(Sun) = -26.832. Implicit in the IAU 2015 Resolution B2 definition of the apparent bolometric magnitude scale is an exact definition for the parsec (648000/$\pi$ au) based on the IAU 2012 Resolution B2 definition of the astronomical unit.

Simulations forecast 21-51% probability of resolving individual SMBH binaries with PTAs in 0-10 years, with localization areas containing ~190k early-type galaxies on average and a ranking method that excludes roughly half the candidates when galaxy properties are available.
Empirical zero-point constants for Gaia bolometric corrections are derived as weighted averages 0.8677, 1.0449, and 2.0510 mag for G, GBP, and GRP from 88 stars, yielding corresponding magnitude zero-points via IAU definitions.
FLAME pipeline derives stellar luminosities, radii, masses and ages for Gaia DR4 using analytical calculations followed by minimization and Bayesian model inference, with tests showing statistical agreement to literature values.
Six seismic solar analogs have masses 0.91-1.04 solar masses, radii 0.95-1.08 solar radii, and ages 1.8-9.1 Gyr, with one star matching the Sun closely enough to be called a solar twin.
