We show that every even positive integer at most the dimension of Teichm\"uller space occurs as the degree of the minimal polynomial of a pseudo-Anosov stretch factor on an orientable surface. By Thurston's upper bound on the degree, these are all the even degrees that may occur. We prove an analogous result for pseudo-Anosov mapping classes with orientable invariant foliations as well.
We also show that Galois conjugates of pseudo-Anosov stretch factors arising from Penner's construction are dense in the complex plane. This complements an earlier result of Shin and the author stating that such Galois conjugates may never lie on the unit circle.
