Do stellar magnetic cycles influence the measurement of precise radial velocities?

open access: yes, 2010
The ever increasing level of precision achieved by present and future radial-velocity instruments is opening the way to discovering very low-mass, long-period planets (e.g. solar-system analogs).

H-alpha Activity of Old M Dwarfs: Stellar Cycles and Mean Activity Levels For 93 Low-Mass Stars in the Solar Neighborhood

open access: yes, 2012
Through the McDonald Observatory M Dwarf Planet Search, we have acquired nearly 3,000 high-resolution spectra of 93 late-type (K5-M5) stars over more than a decade using HET/HRS.

Magnetic activity in stellar merger products [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2007
We study the expected X-ray luminosity of stellar merger products several years after merger. The X-ray emission is assumed to result from magnetic activity. The extended envelope of the merger product possesses a large convective region and it is expected to rotate fast.

Filamentary Electron-beam Heating in Solar Flares

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Radiation-hydrodynamic simulations of the solar-flare chromospheric emission very often lead to an excess of the line intensities when compared to observations.

Properties of PSR J1023+0038 Based on Kepler, TESS, and FAST

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The pulsar system PSR J1023+0038 is a very interesting binary with radio millisecond pulsar and low-mass X-ray binary transitions, which depend on the stellar accretion process. We have used Kepler light curves with 1 minute cadence and TESS light curves

Can stellar activity make a planet seem misaligned?

open access: yes, 2016
Several studies have shown that the occultation of stellar active regions by the transiting planet can generate anomalies in the high-precision transit light curves, and these anomalies may lead to an inaccurate estimate of the planetary parameters (e.g.,

STELLAR TRANSITS IN ACTIVE GALACTIC NUCLEI [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2012
Supermassive black holes (SMBH) are typically surrounded by a dense stellar population in galactic nuclei. Stars crossing the line of site in active galactic nuclei (AGN) produce a characteristic transit lightcurve, just like extrasolar planets do when they transit their host star. We examine the possibility of finding such AGN transits in deep optical,

Why and When Are Evidence‐Based Interventions Adopted in Paediatric Supportive Care? A Qualitative Exploration of the Determinants of Photobiomodulation Implementation

open access: yesPediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Oral mucositis is a common and debilitating side effect of childhood cancer and stem cell transplant treatments. It affects the quality of life of children and young people (CYP) and places a strain on services. Photobiomodulation is recommended for oral mucositis prevention in international guidance but is poorly implemented in UK ...

New Approach to Superflare Energy Determination

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters
We present a new method for estimating the total energy radiated by stellar flares in broadband continua, which assumes a constant emitting area but incorporates a time-dependent temperature evolution.

Sh2-205: II. Its quiescent stellar formation activity [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We present a study of active stellar forming regions in the environs of the HII region Sh2-205. The analysis is based on data obtained from point source catalogues and images extracted from 2MASS, MSX, and IRAS surveys.
