Reconstruction of the Total Solar Irradiance during the last Millenium

Valentina Penza, Luca Bertello, Matteo Cantoresi +5

Solar irradiance variations across various timescales, from minutes to centuries, represents a potential natural driver of past regional and global climate cold phases. To accurate…

On the contradictory case of the binary system HD 81809 hosting two pulsating solar-like stars observed by TESS

Maria Pia Di Mauro, Camilla Pezzotti, Nuno Moedas +8

We present a new comprehensive study of HD81809, a nearby binary system of two solar-like stars showing high-amplitude X-ray emission and a well-defined 8-year solar-like magnetic…

Modeling Decadal and Centennial Solar UV Irradiance Changes

Raffaele Reda, Valentina Penza, Serena Criscuoli +5

Reconstructions of solar spectral irradiance - especially in the ultraviolet (UV) range - are crucial for understanding Earth's climate system. Although total solar irradiance (TSI…

Disentangling the solar activity-solar wind predictive causality at Space Climate scales

Raffaele Reda, Mirko Stumpo, Luca Giovannelli +2

The variability in the magnetic activity of the Sun is the main source of the observed changes in the plasma and electromagnetic environments within the heliosphere. The primary wa…

Investigating the Temperature Sensitivity of UV Line Ratios in the 280 nm Region of Solar-like Stars

Valentina Penza, Serena Criscuoli, Raffaele Reda +7

Stellar UV spectra are fundamental diagnostics of physical and magnetic properties of stars. For instance, lines like Mg II at 280 nm serve as valuable indicators of stellar activi…

On the Temporal Variability in the Magnetic Dichotomy of Late M Dwarf Stars

Giuseppina Nigro, Francesco Berrilli, Giuseppe Bono +4

Rapidly rotating late M dwarfs are observed in two different branches of magnetic activity, although they operate in the same stellar parameter range. Current empirical evidence in…

The Ca II K index-Mg II index relation: A Hilbert-Huang Transform approach

Raffaele Reda, Valentina Penza

The solar activity, which is driven by a variable magnetic field, exhibits changes along several time scales, the 11-year being the most known. In addition to the SunSpot Number, t…

On the characterization of GJ 504: a magnetically active planet-host star observed by the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS)

Maria Pia Di Mauro, Raffaele Reda, Savita Mathur +10

We present the results of the analysis of the photometric data collected in long and short-cadence mode by the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) for GJ 504, a well studi…

The exoplanetary magnetosphere extension in Sun-like stars based on the solar wind -- solar UV relation

Raffaele Reda, Luca Giovannelli, Tommaso Alberti +6

The Earth's magnetosphere extension is controlled by the solar activity level via solar wind properties. Understanding such a relation in the Solar System is important for predicti…
