On Generalized Additive Models for Representation of Solar EUV Irradiance

open access: yesSpace Weather, Volume 22, Issue 3, March 2024.
Abstract In the context of space weather forecasting, solar EUV irradiance specification is needed on multiple time scales, with associated uncertainty quantification for determining the accuracy of downstream parameters. Empirical models of irradiance often rely on parametric fits between irradiance in several bands and various solar indices. We build

A Transfer Learning Method to Generate Synthetic Synoptic Magnetograms

open access: yesSpace Weather, Volume 22, Issue 1, January 2024.
Abstract Current magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) models largely rely on synoptic magnetograms, such as the ones produced by the Global Oscillation Network Group (GONG). Magnetograms are currently available mostly from the front side of the Sun, which significantly reduces the accuracy of MHD modeling. Extreme Ultraviolet (EUV) images can instead be obtained

PHOENIX model chromospheres of mid- to late-type M dwarfs

open access: yes, 2005
We present semi-empirical model chromospheres computed with the atmosphere code PHOENIX. The models are designed to fit the observed spectra of five mid- to late-type M dwarfs. Next to hydrogen lines from the Balmer series we used various metal lines, e.

The Strength and Variability of the Helium 10830 Å Triplet in Young Stars, with Implications for Exosphere Detection

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
Young exoplanets trace planetary evolution, in particular the atmospheric mass loss that is most dynamic in youth. However, the high activity level of young stars can mask or mimic the spectroscopic signals of atmospheric mass loss.

Stellar chromospheres [PDF]

open access: yes
Developments in the understanding and use of chromospheric diagnostics are discussed with emphasis on the following aspects: (1) trends emerging from semiempirical models of single stars; (2) the validity of claims that theoretical models of ...

High-pressure transition regions in stellar model chromospheres

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 1979
The implications of recent ultraviolet observations of stellar transition-region lines for calculations of the Ca II and Mg II resonance lines are investigated. It is found that the adoption of high transition-region pressures for stars with active chromospheres, such as Lambda And and Alpha Aur, can be consistent with observed Ca II fluxes, contrary ...

The Influence of Chromospheric Activity on Line Formation

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
One of the primary sources of stellar spectral variability is magnetic activity. While our current understanding of chromospheric activity is largely derived from specific lines sensitive to chromospheric heating, such as the Ca ii H and K doublet ...

Chromospheric and Coronal Indicators of Stellar Magnetic Structure [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1983
This paper discusses attempts to derive information on magnetic structure in late-type stars, only from emission fluxes in the cores of the Ca II H and K lines, in UV emission lines and in soft X-rays — and from relations between these emission fluxes. However simpleminded and indirect this approach may seem, it brings out stimulating results.

Correlating Intrinsic Stellar Parameters with Mg ii Self-reversal Depths

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
The Mg ii h&k emission lines (2803, 2796 Å) are a useful tool for understanding stellar chromospheres and transition regions due to their intrinsic brightness, relatively low interstellar medium (ISM) absorption interference, and abundance
