Stellar Chromospheric Activity [PDF]

open access: yesLiving Reviews in Solar Physics, 2008
The Sun, stars similar to it, and many rather dissimilar to it, have chromospheres, regions classically viewed as lying above the brilliant photosphere and characterized by a positive temperature gradient and a marked departure from radiative equilibrium.

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 ...

The Stellar Activity - Rotation Relationship [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, 2012
Using a new catalog of 824 solar and late-type stars with X-ray luminosities and rotation periods we have studied the relationship between rotation and stellar activity. From an unbiased subset of this sample the power law slope of the unsaturated regime,

Stellar magnetic activity – Star-Planet Interactions

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2015
Stellar magnetic activity is an important factor in the formation and evolution of exoplanets. Magnetic phenomena like stellar flares, coronal mass ejections, and high-energy emission affect the exoplanetary atmosphere and its mass loss over time.

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 ...

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.

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

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.
