Stellar chromospheres and coronae

The Astrophysical Journal, 1981
The basic structural features of the solar chromosphere and corona are identified either with physical properties of the plasma or with properties of the energy input. It is argued that those properties identified with plasma physics should be relatively invariant whereas those identified with the energy input should vary from star to star.

Solar Flare Activity, 1937–2024: Introducing the New Hemispheric Solar Flare Index (hSFI) in the Context of 2024's Major Solar Storm Events

Space Weather, Volume 23, Issue 11, November 2025.
Abstract A new daily composite of the solar flare index (SFI) and the hemispherically‐resolved versions (hSFI) are presented for 1937 to 2024. The data set confirms that the northern hemisphere (NH) dominated solar flare activity during Solar Cycles 17 to 21, but that the southern hemisphere has dominated from Solar Cycle 22 to present.

Relations of Rotation and Chromospheric Activity to Stellar Age for FGK Dwarfs from Kepler and LAMOST

The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
The empirical relations between rotation period, chromospheric activity, and age can be used to estimate stellar age. To calibrate these relations, we present a catalog, including the masses and ages of 52,321 FGK dwarfs, 47,489 chromospheric activity ...

Stellar model chromospheres. XIII - M dwarf stars

The Astrophysical Journal, 1982
Single-component, homogeneous model chromospheres that are consistent with high-resolution profiles of the Ca II K line calibrated in surface flux units for three dMe and 2 dM stars observed at quiescent times are constructed. The models reveal several systematic trends.

Comparison of Solar Imaging Feature Extraction Methods in the Context of Space Weather Prediction With Deep Learning‐Based Models

Journal of Geophysical Research: Machine Learning and Computation, Volume 2, Issue 3, September 2025.
Abstract Recently, many machine learning‐based models have been developed to predict geomagnetic activity several days in advance directly from space‐borne solar imaging. To better understand and improve these models, we compare dimensionality reduction techniques to extract abstract features from solar images for space weather‐related downstream tasks.

Physical Parameters and Activity Properties of K-type Stars Based on the LAMOST Spectral Survey

The Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
K-type stars are important objects of our Galaxy. It is interesting to determine the stellar physical parameters and magnetic activity properties of K-type stars.

Deriving the Coronal Separatrix‐Web With the WSA Model

Journal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 130, Issue 8, August 2025.
Abstract We demonstrate a new capability of the Wang‐Sheeley‐Arge (WSA) model to routinely derive the coronal separatrix web (S‐web) as a standard data product. We describe our methodology for deriving the squashing factor (Q $Q$) and we use Carrington rotation (CR) 2109 to illustrate the validation of our output with that derived from the POT3D model.

The California-Kepler Survey. XI. A Survey of Chromospheric Activity through the Lens of Precise Stellar Properties

The Astrophysical Journal
Surveys of exoplanet host stars are valuable tools for assessing population level trends in exoplanets, and their outputs can include stellar ages, activity, and rotation periods.

The High-energy Spectrum of the Young Planet Host V1298 Tau

The Astronomical Journal, 2023
V1298 Tau is a young pre-main-sequence star hosting four known exoplanets that are prime targets for transmission spectroscopy with current-generation instruments. This work pieces together observations from the NICER X-ray telescope, the Space Telescope

Detection of mass loss in stellar chromospheres

The Astrophysical Journal, 1980
IUE observations of 47 cool giants have been made in a search for the onset of expansion in the Mg II h and k emission cores. It is found that, in a statistical sense, the longward emission peak becomes dominant above a velocity dividing line in the H-R diagram, which lies close to a temperature dividing line reported by Linsky and Haisch (1979).
