Sun-like stars produce superflares roughly once per century
Valeriy Vasilyev, Timo Reinhold, Alexander I. Shapiro +7
Stellar superflares are energetic outbursts of electromagnetic radiation, similar to solar flares but releasing more energy, up to erg on main sequence stars. It is unkno…
Low-latitude magnetic flux emergence on rapidly rotating solar-type stars
Emre IÅık, Sami K. Solanki, Robert H. Cameron +1
Besides a dense coverage of their high latitudes by starspots, rapidly rotating cool stars also display low-latitude spots in Doppler images, although generally with a lower covera…
First Calculations of Starspot Spectra based on 3D Radiative Magnetohydrodynamics Simulations
H. N. Smitha, Alexander I. Shapiro, Veronika Witzke +6
Accurate calculations of starspot spectra are essential for multiple applications in astronomy. The current standard is to represent starspot spectra by spectra of stars that are c…
Reliable Transmission Spectrum Extraction with a Three-Parameter Limb Darkening Law
Rosa E. Keers, Alexander I. Shapiro, Nadiia M. Kostogryz +7
Stellar limb darkening must be properly accounted for to accurately determine the radii of exoplanets at various wavelengths. The standard approach to address limb darkening involv…
Stellar Surface Magnetic Fields Impact Limb Darkening
Nadiia M. Kostogryz, Alexander I. Shapiro, Veronika Witzke +8
Stars appear darker at their limbs than at their disk centers because at the limb we are viewing the higher and cooler layers of stellar photospheres. Limb darkening derived from s…
