Broad-band Multicolor Photometry and Polarimetry of Spotted Stars
We have confirmed the BY Dra-type variability of the active spottedstars MS Ser, LQ Hya, VY Ari, and EK Dra using simultaneous UBVRIphotometric and polarimetric observations. We have also reliablydetected the intrinsic linear polarization of their radiation and itsrotational modulation in U due to the inhomogeneous distribution ofactive magnetized regions over the surfaces of the stars. Modeling ofthe linear polarization based on the Zeeman effect indicates that allthe stars display strong local magnetic fields (about 2 kG, similar tothose in sunspots), with filling factors of up to 40% of the totalstellar surface. The magnetized regions coincide with cool photosphericspots detected in photoelectric observations.
| Long-term monitoring of active stars. VIII. UBV(RI)_(c) photometry collected in February 1992
As a part of an extensive program focusing on the global properties andevolution of active stars, high-precision UBV(RI)_c photometry of 31selected stars, collected at the European Southern Observatory over the14-29 February 1992 interval, is presented. Significant evolution of thelight curves, period variations and evidence for long-term variabilityof the global degree of spottedness are found. Some spectralclassifications are revised and the inferred photometric parallaxes arecompared, whenever possible, with the values measured by the Hipparcossatellite. Flare events were detected for the star HD16157 = CC Eri, EXO 055609-3804.4 TY Coland HD 119285 = V851 Cen. Optical variability wasdiscovered for the Pop II binary HD 89499. Theseobservations contribute to the establishment of a time-extendedphotometric database which can give important clues on topics such asthe stability of spotted areas, differential rotation, solar-like cyclesand the correlation between inhomogeneities at different atmosphericlevels. based on data collected at the European Southern Observatory, LaSilla, Chile.
| Doppler imaging of stellar surface structure. VII. The very young, single K2-dwarf LQ Hydrae
A Doppler image of the young K2V star LQ Hya is presented for March 1995and is compared with earlier images taken in 1991 and 1993. Comparisonis also made with a recently completed image of EK Dra, another youngstar that is more nearly one solar mass than LQ Hya. The image for 1995seems to show a consistent pattern of spot concentration to theequatorial region in either a continuous wide band of features averagingonly about 600 K cooler than photospheric or perhaps a double bandsymmetrically located either side of the equator like the solar pattern.A weak polar feature is evident but it is apparently a somewhat lesspronounced depression in temperature than seen in 1991 and of reducedarea. The polar feature is less pronounced than that of EK Dra and thespot pattern at the equator of LQ Hya does not extend to latitudes asfar toward the poles as does the pattern of spots at the equatorial andmid-latitudes of EK Dra. When these results are compared withtheoretical predictions for the location of spots on such young stars ofsolar mass, it appears surprising that the observations for LQ Hya andEK Dra are not reversed given that LQ Hya is apparently significantlyless massive than EK Dra.
| Long-term monitoring of active stars. VII. UBV(RI)_c photometry collected in March 1991
In the framework of an extensive program focusing on the globalproperties and evolution of active stars, high-precision UBV(RI)_cphotometry of 19 selected stars, collected at the European SouthernObservatory over the 15-31 March 1991 interval is presented. Significantevolution of the light curves, period variations and evidence forlong-term variability of the global degree of spottedness are found.Most of the spectral classifications are discussed. A flare event wasdetected for the star HD 127535 = V 841 Cen. These observationscontribute to the establishment of a time-extended photometric databasewhich can give important clues on topics such as the stability ofspotted areas, differential rotation, solar-like cycles and thecorrelation between inhomogeneities at different atmospheric levelsFigure 1 to 24 are only available on the on-line version of A&A athttp://www.ed-phys.fr}. based on data collected at the European SouthernObservatory, La Silla, Chile.
