The star continuously emits photons, dominantly in x-rays, with an effective temperature Teff that tracks ...

Behavior of Li abundances in solar-analog stars
... Methods. The atmospheric parameters were spectroscopically determined by using the equivalent widths of Fe i and Fe ii lines, the ages/masses were estimated from stellar evolutionary tracks, and the width of the macrobroadening (rotation plus macroturbulence) function as well as Li abundances (ALi ) ...

... Allen – This is indeed something to worry about, but I do not believe the discrepancies indicate motion. In the case of ADS 4186E the observations are nearly simultaneous. The last two points refer to measures by Mauray, using CCD astrometry and Mason, using speckle interferometry. Both points are s ...
