Asteroseismology of solar-type stars

RA García, J Ballot - Living Reviews in Solar Physics, 2019 - Springer
Until the last few decades, investigations of stellar interiors had been restricted to theoretical
studies only constrained by observations of their global properties and external …

The effect of stellar contamination on low-resolution transmission spectroscopy: needs identified by NASA's Exoplanet Exploration Program Study Analysis Group 21

BV Rackham, N Espinoza… - RAS Techniques …, 2023 - academic.oup.com
Abstract Study Analysis Group 21 (SAG21) of NASA's Exoplanet Exploration Program

Powering stellar magnetism: energy transfers in cyclic dynamos of Sun-like stars

AS Brun, A Strugarek, Q Noraz, B Perri… - The Astrophysical …, 2022 - iopscience.iop.org
We use the anelastic spherical harmonic code to model the convective dynamo of solar-type
stars. Based on a series of 15 3D MHD simulations spanning four bins in rotation and mass …

The Sun is less active than other solar-like stars

T Reinhold, AI Shapiro, SK Solanki, BT Montet… - Science, 2020 - science.org
The magnetic activity of the Sun and other stars causes their brightness to vary. We
investigated how typical the Sun's variability is compared with other solar-like stars, ie, those …

The atmosphere of HD 209458b seen with ESPRESSO-No detectable planetary absorptions at high resolution

N Casasayas-Barris, E Palle, M Stangret… - Astronomy & …, 2021 - aanda.org
We observed two transits of the iconic gas giant HD 209458b between 380 and 780 nm,
using the high-resolution ESPRESSO spectrograph. The derived planetary transmission …

Dynamics of large-scale solar flows

H Hotta, Y Bekki, L Gizon, Q Noraz, M Rast - Space Science Reviews, 2023 - Springer
The Sun's axisymmetric large-scale flows, differential rotation and meridional circulation, are
thought to be maintained by the influence of rotation on the thermal-convective motions in …

The impact of metallicity on the evolution of the rotation and magnetic activity of Sun-like stars

L Amard, SP Matt - The Astrophysical Journal, 2020 - iopscience.iop.org
The rotation rates and magnetic activity of Sun-like and low-mass (≲ 1.4M⊙) main-
sequence stars are known to decline with time, and there now exist several models for the …

Spectral variability of photospheric radiation due to faculae–II. Facular contrasts for cool main-sequence stars

CM Norris, YC Unruh, V Witzke… - Monthly Notices of …, 2023 - academic.oup.com
Magnetic features on the surface of stars, such as spots and faculae, cause stellar spectral
variability on time-scales of days and longer. For stars other than the Sun, the spectral …

Stellar activity cycles

SV Jeffers, R Kiefer, TS Metcalfe - Space Science Reviews, 2023 - Springer
The magnetic field of the Sun is generated by internal dynamo process with a cyclic period
of 11 years or a 22 year magnetic cycle. The signatures of the Sun's magnetic cycle are …

Flares in open clusters with K2-I. M 45 (Pleiades), M 44 (Praesepe), and M 67

E Ilin, SJ Schmidt, JRA Davenport… - Astronomy & …, 2019 - aanda.org
Context. The presence and strength of a stellar magnetic field and activity is rooted in a star's
fundamental parameters such as mass and age. Can flares serve as an accurate stellar …
