Inferred prior over excess variance parameter (﹩y=\mathrm{ln}{s}^{2}﹩) using posterior samples for 1825 lower-RGB stars with ﹩\gt 10﹩ visits. Left and right panels show the distribution corresponding to the maximum-likelihood parameters (μy, σy) = (9.50, 1.64) on log and linear scales, respectively.
