cds-question@unistra.frmultiple-starslate-type-starsvariable-starsstellar-agesphotometryvisible-astronomyGyrochronology allows the derivation of ages of late-type main sequence stars from their rotation periods and a mass proxy such as color. It has been explored in open clusters, but a connection to field stars has yet to be established successfully. We explore the rotation rates of wide binaries, representing enlightening intermediaries between clusters and field stars, and their overlap with those of open cluster stars. We investigate a recently created catalog of wide binaries, match them to observations by the Kepler mission (and its K2 extension), validate or rederive their rotation periods, identify 283 systems where both stars are on the main sequence and have vetted rotation periods, and compare them with open cluster data. We find that the vast majority of these wide binaries (236) line up directly along the curvilinear ribs defined by open clusters in color-period diagrams or along the equivalent interstitial gaps between successive open clusters. The parallelism in shape is remarkable. 12 additional systems are clearly rotationally older. The deviant systems, a minority, are mostly demonstrably hierarchical. Furthermore, the position in the color-magnitude diagram of the evolved component in the additional wide binary systems containing one is consistent with the main sequence component's rotational age.2023A&A...675A.180Ghttps://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/cat/J/A+A/675/A180CatalogResearchIsServedByTAP VizieR generic serviceIsServedByConesearch servicerelated-toII/246 : 2MASS All-Sky Catalog of Point Sources (Cutri+ 2003)V/133 : Kepler Input Catalog (KIC) (Kepler Mission Team, 2009)IV/34 : K2 Ecliptic Plane Input Catalog (EPIC) (Huber+, 2017)I/355 : Gaia DR3 Part 1 (Gaia Collaboration, 2022)J/ApJS/211/24 : Rotation periods of Kepler MS stars (McQuillan+, 2014)J/A+A/635/A43 : Stellar rotation periods from K2 Campaigns 0-18https://cds.unistra.fr/vizier-org/licences_vizier.htmlhttps://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/A+A/675/A180https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/A+A/675/A180http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/A+A/675/A180https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/A+A/675/A180https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/A+A/675/A180http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/A+A/675/A180GETtext/xml+votablehttps://tapvizier.cds.unistra.fr/TAPVizieR/tapCone search capability for table J/A+A/675/A180/tablec1 (Compilation of wide binaries)https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/conesearch/J/A+A/675/A180/tablec1?https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/conesearch/J/A+A/675/A180/tablec1?http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/conesearch/J/A+A/675/A180/tablec1?GETtext/xml+votable180.050000true298.7334088940.706178890.0055555555555555565/3689 3693 3706 3732 3736 6/269 280 307 318-320 354-355 405 407 450 454 477 4252 4281 4313-4314 4328 4331 4346 4523 4658 4673 4675 4679-4680 4696 4714 4724 4817 4874 4896 14579 14582-14586 14588-14589 14591 14730 14733-14735 14744 14751 14753 14755 14760 14762-14765 14767 14770 14777 14779 14781 14783 14794 14816 14819 14830 14914-14915 14917-14918 14920-14921 14923-14925 14933 14935 14938-14942 14950 14952-14953 14955-14956 14959 14961 14965-14967 14970-14971 14973-14975 15040-15041 15044 15057 15059 15061 15104-15105 15111-15114 15117 15119-15120 15122-15123 15126-15128 15130-15131 15133-15134 15136-15138 15140-15141 15143 15145-15149 15151 15153-15154 15156-15158 15160 15168 15171-15172 15174 15200 17149 17295 18002 18007 18019 18022 18037 18042 18126 18129-18130 18133 18151 18210 18218 18226-18227 18233 18308 18310 18314 18344 18346 18350 18354 18362 18478 18561 18579 18589 18648 18662 18668 18699 18739 18741-18742 18750 18760 18763 18794 23482 23486 23940 24925 25436 25462 25468-25469 25535 25541 25551 25587 25595-25596 25607-25608 25630 25644 25646 25673-25675 25702 25713 25727 25732 25758 25781 25797 25805 25810 25812 25896 26246 26273 26294 26900 26903 26909 26952 26954 26956 26970 26974 26982 26991-26992 26999 27001 27029 27074 27077 27081 27094 27687 27695 27785 27787-27788 28841 28977-28978 29225-29226 29348 42859 44308 44728 44730 44779 48026 48108 48111https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/moc/J/A+A/675/A180?format=asciiOpticaldefaultJ/A+A/675/A180/tablec1Compilation of wide binariesrecnoRecord number assigned by the VizieR team.
