Transients and Stellar Activity as Revealed by Ultraviolet Diagnostic Tracers

Richard de Grijs, Martin A. Barstow, Deepak Chahal +5

Ultraviolet (UV) observations offer unique insights into transient and variable astrophysical phenomena, from the Sun and nearby stars to supernovae and star-forming galaxies. Here…

Open Clusters as Laboratories for Cool Star Evolution: Highlights from the Cool Stars 23 Splinter Session

Deepak Chahal, Beatrice Caccherano, Edward Gillen +16

Open clusters remain among the most powerful laboratories for calibrating how fundamental stellar properties such as rotation, magnetic activity, surface chemistry, and internal st…

NGTS clusters survey - VI: Stellar rotation in seven young open clusters within the PLATO LOPS2 field

Alexander Hughes, Edward Gillen, Matthew Battley +18

We present NGTS measurements of rotation period distributions for FGKM stars in seven young open clusters spanning ~40--700 Myr within PLATO's first long-stare LOPS2 field. We meas…

Photometric activity cycles in fast-rotating stars: Revisiting the reality of stellar activity cycle branches

Deepak Chahal, Devika Kamath, Richard de Grijs +2

We aim to detect activity cycles in young main-sequence stars, analogous to the 11-year solar cycle, using combined photometric survey data. This research will enhance our understa…

Unravelling the Period Gap using LAMOST Chromospheric Activity Indices

Deepak Chahal, Devika Kamath, Richard de Grijs +2

In our recent catalogue of BY Draconis (BY Dra) variables based on Zwicky Transient Facility data, we found traces of a period gap in the period-colour diagram. We combined our BY…

Statistics of BY Draconis Chromospheric Variable Stars

Deepak Chahal, Richard de Grijs, Devika Kamath +1

We present an extensive catalogue of BY Draconis (BY Dra)-type variables and their stellar parameters. BY Dra are main-sequence FGKM-type stars. They exhibit inhomogeneous starspot…
