Surface image and activity-corrected orbit of the RSCVn binary HR7275

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Context. Quantifying stellar parameters and magnetic activity for cool stars in double-lined spectroscopic binaries (SB2s) is not straightforward, as both stars contribute to the observed composite spectra and are likely variable.

Is it possible to detect planets around young active G and K dwarfs? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Theoretical predictions suggest that the distribution of planets in very young stars could be very different to that typically observed in Gyr old systems that are the current focus of radial velocity surveys.

Starspots on by DRA-Type Stars [PDF]

open access: yesHighlights of Astronomy, 1977
The first detection of spots on dwarf M stars was by Kron on YY Geminorum in 1948. Since then phenomena attributable to starspots have been found by numerous authors beginning with Kraft and Krzeminski on the star now known as BY Draconis and on CC Eridani by Evans.

Stellar Flares, Superflares, and Coronal Mass Ejections—Entering the Big Data Era

open access: yesUniverse
Flares, sometimes accompanied by coronal mass ejections (CMEs), are the result of sudden changes in the magnetic field of stars with high energy release through magnetic reconnection, which can be observed across a wide range of the electromagnetic ...

The contribution of starspots to coronal structure [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Significant progress has been made recently in our understanding of the structure of stellar magnetic fields, thanks to advances in detection methods such as Zeeman-Doppler Imaging.

Starspots, cycles, and magnetic fields [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2010
AbstractI make a perhaps slightly foolhardy attempt to synthesize a semi-coherent scenario relating cycle characteristics, starspots, and the underlying magnetic fields with stellar properties such as mass and rotation. Key to this attempt is to first study single dwarfs; differential rotation plays a surprising role.

Multiple short-term cycles in Kepler star KIC 6876668

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Context. Solar and stellar magnetic activity may have similar properties, which can be used to understand the stellar magnetic evolution. Aims. This paper examines the multiple short-term cycles in the total irradiance of the Sun and in the light curve ...

Dependence of Stellar Differential Rotation on Effective Temperature and Rotation: An Analysis from Starspot Transit Mapping

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Stellar rotation is crucial for studying stellar evolution, since it provides information about age, angular momentum transfer, and magnetic fields of stars.

Radial Velocity Variations from Starspots [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Astronomical Union Colloquium, 1999
AbstractIn this contribution the radial velocity (RV) variations expected for starspots on solar-type stars are examined. The spot-induced RV amplitude is found to vary linearly with spot filling factor and is less than 1 m−1 for spot sizes comparable to large sunspots and as high as 20 m s−1 for spot filling factors of 1%.
