Stellar rotation, binarity, and lithium in the open cluster IC4756

Klaus G. Strassmeier, Joerg Weingrill, Thomas Granzer +3

An important aspect in the evolutionary scenario of cool stars is their rotation and the rotationally induced magnetic activity and interior mixing. Stars in open clusters are part…
