HD170582 is an interacting binary of the Double Periodic Variable (DPV) type, showing ellipsoidal variability with a period of 16.87 days along with a long photometric cycle of 587 days. It was recently studied by Mennickent et al. (2015),…
From Zeeman Doppler images of the young, rapidly-rotating K0 dwarf AB Doradus, we have created a potential approximation to the observed radial magnetic field and have evolved it over 30 days due to the observed surface differential…
Stellar activity patterns are responsible for jitter effects that are observed at different timescales and amplitudes. These effects are currently in the focus of many exoplanet search projects, since the lack of a well-defined…
The vector representation of sunspots is used to study the nonaxisymmetric features of the solar activity distribution (sunspot data from Greenwich - USAF/NOAA, 1874 - 2016).The vector of the longitudinal asymmetry is defined for each…
The short-term periodicities of the daily sunspot area fluctuations from August 1923 to October 1933 are discussed. For these data the correlative analysis indicates negative correlation for the periodicity of about 155 days, but the power…
Long-term observational data have information on the magnetic cycles of active stars and that of the Sun. The changes in the activity of our central star have basic effects on Earth, like variations in the global climate. Therefore…
We measure the horizontal subsurface flow in a fast emerging active region (NOAA 11158) using the ring-diagram technique and the HMI high-spatial resolution Dopplergrams. This active region had a complex magnetic structure and displayed…
Context. The Kepler mission has recently discovered a brown dwarf companion transiting one member of the M4V+M5V visual binary system LHS 6343 AB with an orbital period of 12.71 days. Aims. The particular interest of this transiting system…
This paper examines long-term temporal and spatial fluctuations in the solar rotation (more than four solar cycles) by investigating radio emission escapes from various layers of the solar atmosphere during the years 1967-2010. The flux…
We present an observational program we started in 1999, to systematically obtain mid-resolution spectra of late-type stars, to study in particular chromospheric activity. In particular, we found cyclic activity in four dM stars, including…
We studied new simultaneous observations of the flux variations of the photospheric and chromospheric emissions of 33 solar-type stars and Sun during the HK-project that were conducted over the past 20 years. In addition to the known cyclic…
The star CoRoT102781750 reveals a puzzle, showing a very complex and altering variation in different `CoRoT colours'. We established without doubt that more than a single star was situated within the CoRoT mask. Using a search for…
In order to match observed properties of the solar cycle, flux-transport dynamo models require the toroidal magnetic flux to be stored in a region of low magnetic diffusivity, typically located at or below the bottom of the convection zone.…
We present the results from 135 hours of nearly continuous time series photometry on the ``hybrid'' (H-rich) PG1159 variable star HS2324+3944, obtained in August-September 1997. The power spectrum of the data shows several frequencies…
(Abridged) We perform a detailed study of the main optical activity indicators (Ca II H & K, Balmer lines, Na I D$_{\rm 1}$ D$_{\rm 2}$, and He I D$_{\rm 3}$) measured for the Sun using the data provided by the HARPS-N solar-telescope feed…
High precision photometry of solar-like members of the open cluster M67 with Kepler/K2 data has recently revealed enhanced activity for stars with a large Rossby number, which is the ratio of rotation period to the convective turnover time.…
We have analysed the Ca-K images obtained at Kodaikanal Observatory as a function of latitude and time for the period of 1913 - 2004 covering the Solar Cycle 15 to 23. We have classified the chromospheric activity into plage, Enhanced…
Four months of quasi-simultaneous spectroscopic and photometric observations were used to study the variations of the photometric light curve, the evolution of the chromospheric activity from the H$\alpha$ and H$\beta$ lines, and the…
We demonstrate the power of the local correlation tracking technique on stellar data for the first time. We recover the spot migration pattern of the long-period RS CVn-type binary $\sigma$ Gem from a set of six Doppler images from 3.6…
This paper reports positive detections of surface differential rotation on two rapidly rotating cool stars at several epochs, by using stellar surface features (both cool spots and magnetic regions) as tracers of the large scale latitudinal…
