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

open access: yesThe 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 ...

In the Trenches of the Solar–Stellar Connection. VII. Wilson–Bappu 2022

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2023
The Wilson–Bappu effect (WBE) is a remarkable correlation between the width of the chromospheric emission core of the Ca ii 3934 Å K line and stellar absolute visual magnitude over an astonishing range, from diminutive red dwarfs to bloated yellow ...

Searching for Rotational X‐Ray Modulation on TIC 277539431

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, Volume 347, Issue 3, March 2026.
ABSTRACT TIC 277539431, a fast rotating M7 dwarf, was detected to host the highest latitude flare to date at 81°$$ {81}^{{}^{\circ}} $$. Magnetic activity like stellar flares occurring at high latitude indicate occurrence of coronal loops at these latitudes on fully‐convective M dwarfs. In contrast, sunspots usually occur below 30°$$ {30}^{{}^{\circ}} $

Periodic Density Structures Observed in Ulysses Data: First Results

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Periodic density structures (PDSs) are advecting quasi‐periodic (periodicities between several minutes and several hours) density enhancements observed in the solar wind and corona. There is strong evidence that PDSs are formed at the Sun.

Magnetic Activity in M-type Stars Based on LAMOST DR11 and TESS Observations

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
We have used 898,351 M-type stellar spectra released by Large Sky Area Multi-Object Fiber Spectroscopic Telescope DR11 to calculate the equivalent width of the Ca II infrared triplet (IRT) lines, the residual chromospheric emission, and the parameter ${R}

On the Freeze‐In Distance of Solar Wind Fluid Entropy Variability in the Corona

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract The strong correlation between solar wind entropy and the frozen‐in ion charge state ratio O7+/O6+ ${\mathrm{O}}^{7+}/{\mathrm{O}}^{6+}$ indicates that entropy variability on timescales of hours or longer is preserved from its solar source. This prompts the question: where in the solar atmosphere does this entropy variability come from, and at

Extrasolar planets, stellar winds and chromospheric hotspots [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society: Letters, 2006
Abstract Recent observations have shown what is believed to be planet-induced chromospheric activity on stars with hot Jupiters. We present a model of the magnetic interaction between a planet and a star with a dipolar magnetic field. Reconnection between the fields of the star and planet accelerates electrons along the field lines that ...

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

open access: yesThe 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.
