The Ages of Galactic Bulge Stars with Realistic Uncertainties

Using modern isochrones with customized physics and carefully considered statistical techniques, we recompute the age distribution for a sample of 91 microlensed dwarfs in the Galactic bulge presented by Bensby et al. and do not produce an age distribution consistent with their results. In particula...
