K2 Rotation Periods for Low-mass Hyads and a Quantitative Comparison of the Distribution of Slow Rotators in the Hyades and Praesepe

We analyze K2 light curves for 132 low-mass (1 M M* 0.1 M ) members of the 600-800 Myr old Hyades cluster and measure rotation periods ( ) for 116 of these stars. These include 93 stars with no prior measurements; the total number of Hyads with a known is now 232. We then combine literature binary d...
