The stellar activity‐rotation relationship [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, 2013
AbstractUsing a new catalog of 824 solar and late‐type stars with measured X‐ray luminosities and rotation periods we have studied the relationship between rotation and stellar activity that is believed to be a probe of the underlying stellar dynamo. Using an unbiased subset of the sample we calculate the power law slope of the unsaturated regime of ...

Stellar activity [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1986
We have been monitoring the CaII H and K emission in late-type giant stars using the Mt Wilson 60-inch telescope. It is a continuation of work that Olin Wilson began almost 20 years ago. As a result not only have starspot cycles been detected (equivalent to the solar sunspot cycle), but rotation periods have now been measured.

Disentangling planetary orbits from stellar activity in radial-velocity surveys [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The majority of extra-solar planets have been discovered (or confirmed after follow-up) through radial-velocity (RV) surveys. Using ground-based spectrographs such as High Accuracy Radial Velocity Planetary Search (HARPS) and HARPS-North, it is now ...

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 ...

Influence of surface stressing on stellar coronae and winds [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
STFC funding has supported this research.The large-scale field of the Sun is well represented by its lowest energy (or potential) state. Recent observations, by comparison, reveal that many solar-type stars show large-scale surface magnetic fields that ...

Stellar Parameters and Spectroscopic Properties of TESS Objects Observed in the LAMOST Low- and Medium-resolution Spectral Survey

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2022
Stellar parameters and magnetic activity are important for the understanding of stellar physics and dynamo theory. We have used LAMOST spectroscopic surveys to study stellar parameters and magnetic activity properties of TESS objects.

Fictions, Conditionals, and Stellar Astrophysics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
This article argues in favour of an inferential role for fictions in scientific modelling. The argument proceeds by means of a detailed case study, namely models of the internal structure of stars in stellar astrophysics.

Stellar activity and transits

open access: yes, 2021
From an observational standpoint, stellar activity poses a critical challenge to exoplanet science, as it inhibits the detection of planets and the precise measurement of their parameters. Radial velocity and transit searches revealed a significant fraction of exoplanet hosts is active, and showed the need to fully understand the different facets of ...
