New Rotation Period Measurements for M Dwarfs in the Southern Hemisphere: An Abundance of Slowly Rotating, Fully Convective Stars [PDF]
Astronomical Journal, 2018 Stellar rotation periods are valuable both for constraining models of angular momentum loss and for understanding how magnetic features impact inferences of exoplanet parameters. Building on our previous work in the northern hemisphere, we have used long-

Forward Modeling of the Kepler Stellar Rotation Period Distribution: Interpreting Periods from Mixed and Biased Stellar Populations [PDF]
Astrophysical Journal, 2019 Stellar surface rotation carries information about stellar parameters—particularly ages—and thus the large rotational data sets extracted from Kepler time series represent powerful probes of stellar populations.

Stellar rotation periods from K2 Campaigns 0-18 -- Evidence for rotation period bimodality and simultaneous variability decrease [PDF]
Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2020 Context. Rotation period measurements of stars observed with the Kepler mission have revealed a lack of stars at intermediate rotation periods, accompanied by a decrease of photometric variability. Whether this so-called dearth region is a peculiarity of stars in the Kepler field, or reflects a general manifestation of stellar magnetic activity, is ...

The rotation period of comet 29P/Schwassmann-Wachmann 1 determined from the dust structures (Jets) in the coma [PDF]
, 2012 The results of the photometric observations of comet 29P/Schwassmann-Wachmann 1 are analyzed. The comet demonstrates substantial activity at heliocentric distances larger than 5 AU, i.e., outside the water ice sublimation zone.

The Rotation-Period of Venus [PDF]
Nature, 1896 DURING the years 1876 and 1878 I paid some attention to Venus at the Kempshot Observatory, and although no distinct markings on the disc were seen in the very small equatorial, yet the following observation may prove valuable:—“1876 October 2, 6 a.m. The planet dichotomised, but the terminator is not straight; the S. horn projects, and the N.

Early–Late Correlations of Growth Traits of Eucalyptus urophylla S.T. Blake Clones over a Rotation [PDF]
PlantsEucalyptus urophylla is a core tree species for short-rotation industrial timber plantations in South and Southwest China. However, the dynamic correlation rules of its growth traits during the full rotation period remain unclear, and the theoretical ...

THREE-DIMENSIONAL ATMOSPHERIC CIRCULATION OF WARM AND HOT JUPITERS: EFFECTS OF ORBITAL DISTANCE, ROTATION PERIOD, AND NONSYNCHRONOUS ROTATION [PDF]
, 2015 Efforts to characterize extrasolar giant planet (EGP) atmospheres have so far emphasized planets within 0.05 AU of their stars. Despite this focus, known EGPs populate a continuum of orbital separations from canonical hot Jupiter values (0.03–0.05 AU ...
