Stellar Activity and Coronal Heating: an overview of recent results [PDF]

open access: yesPhilos Trans A Math Phys Eng Sci, 2015
Observations of the coronae of the Sun and of solar-like stars provide complementary information to advance our understanding of stellar magnetic activity, and of the processes leading to the heating of their outer atmospheres.

Stellar magnetic activity and exoplanets [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2017
It has been proposed that magnetic activity could be enhanced due to interactions between close-in massive planets and their host stars. In this article, I present a brief overview of the connection between stellar magnetic activity and exoplanets ...

No Transits of Proxima Centauri Planets in High-Cadence TESS Data

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2021
Proxima Centauri is our nearest stellar neighbor and one of the most well-studied stars in the sky. In 2016, a planetary companion was detected through radial velocity measurements.

Physical Properties of Radio Stars Based on LAMOST Spectral Survey

open access: yesUniverse, 2022
Radio emission has been detected for all types of stars in the Hertzsprung Russell diagram. Large Sky Area Multi-Object Fiber Spectroscopic Telescope (LAMOST) low and medium-resolution spectroscopic surveys provide a good opportunity to obtain the ...

Is Core Angular Momentum Key to the Giant Dynamo?

open access: yesUniverse, 2022
The pros and cons of core angular momentum dissipation into the convective envelopes of giants as a driver of giant activity is discussed in face of the observational evidence, which points to two ”magnetic strips“, in the HRD, where in the first, at the

Magnetic Activity of Different Types of Variable Stars Observed by TESS Mission

open access: yesUniverse, 2023
The investigation of the magnetic activity of different types of variable stars holds significant implications for our understanding of the physical processes and evolution of stars.

Spots and Flares in Hot Main Sequence Stars Observed by Kepler, K2, and TESS

open access: yesFrontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2021
About 22,000 Kepler stars, 7,000 K2 stars, and nearly 60,000 TESS stars from sectors 1–24 have been classified according to variability type. A large proportion of stars of all spectral types appear to have periods in their light curves consistent with ...

A Stringent Test of Magnetic Models of Stellar Evolution

open access: yesGalaxies, 2021
Main-sequence stars with convective envelopes often appear larger and cooler than predicted by standard models of stellar evolution for their measured masses. This is believed to be caused by stellar activity.

Multiverse Predictions for Habitability: Stellar and Atmospheric Habitability

open access: yesUniverse, 2022
Stellar activity and planetary atmospheric properties have the potential to strongly influence habitability. To date, neither have been adequately studied in the multiverse context, so there has been no assessment of how these effects impact the ...

Analysis of Solar-like X-class Flare on Wolf 359 Observed Simultaneously with TESS and XMM-Newton

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
We present an analysis of a flare on the Wolf 359 star based on simultaneous observations of Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite and XMM-Newton. A stellar flare with energy comparable to an X-class solar flare is analyzed on this star for the first ...
