Ultraviolet observations of stellar chromospheric activity
A survey is presented of chromospheric and transition region (TR) line emission in late-type stars obtained with the IUE satellite. A wide variation in TR emission (ions formed near T = 100,000 K) at a given position in the H-R diagram is found, contradicting theories that incorporate only acoustic energy generation and deposition.

The Influence of Stellar Chromospheres and Coronae on Exoplanet Transmission Spectroscopy
A main source of bias in transmission spectroscopy of exoplanet atmospheres is magnetic activity of the host star in the form of stellar spots, faculae, or flares. However, the fact that main-sequence stars have a chromosphere and a corona and that these

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.

Far-ultraviolet Emission Line Investigation of Flares on AU Mic
The role of nonthermal proton energy transportation during solar and stellar flares is largely unknown; a better understanding of this physical process will allow us to rectify longstanding deficiencies in flare models.

Deriving the Coronal Separatrix‐Web With the WSA Model
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.

Wavelet Analysis of Stellar Chromospheric Activity Variations
Observations of chromospheric activity variations for some lower main-sequence stars from the Mount Wilson Observatory's HK project reveal a cyclic behavior comparable to the sunspot cycle. Even in the relatively short interval that they have been observed, those stars show stellar cycles and other features, like grand minima. The quasi-periodic nature

Abstract Working toward the goal of understanding solar wind (SW) entry to the Earth's magnetosphere, this study examines solar‐origin ion composition in the magnetotail. During its trajectory, Wind spent a significant amount of time in the Earth's magnetotail, where its SupraThermal Ion Composition Spectrometer (STICS) measured the mass and mass per ...

Evidence for extended chromospheres surrounding red giant stars [PDF]
Observational evidence and theoretical arguments are summarized which indicate that regions of partially ionized hydrogen extending several stellar radii are an important feature of red giant and supergiant stars.

Double-edged Sword: The Influence of Tidal Interaction on Stellar Activity in Binaries
Using the LAMOST DR7 low-resolution spectra, we carried out a systematic study of stellar chromospheric activity in both single and binary stars. We constructed a binary sample and a single-star sample, mainly using the binary belt and the main sequence ...

Slow Solar Wind: Origin in an Independent Small‐Scale Solar Dynamo
Abstract Separation of the solar wind (SW) into three flow types (coronal mass ejections (CMEs), high speed streams (HSSs), and slow solar wind (SSW)) reveals an inverse relationship between the percentage of time Earth spends in SSW during a year and its annually averaged magnetic field strength (B).
