We have a list of nearby bulge-like turnoff stars with metallicities in the range −0.3 ≤ [Fe/H] ≤ +0.6, for which we have the absolute magnitude from Hipparcos, Geneva photometry (therefore temperature and metallicity), and radial velocity from Coravel (Grenon 1990, 1997). From Hipparcos data, the turnoff of these field stars indicate an age of 10-11 Gyr, which would be the age of the most metal-rich component of the bulge.We obtained high resolution échelle spectra with FEROS, with the aim to carry out detailed analysis of these stars. In this paper we present the Li abundance for 40 of these metal-rich and old dwarf stars, as a function of their temperatures.

AbstractUsing data of fast-rotating active dwarf stars in the Kepler database, we perform time-frequency analysis of the light curves in order to search for signs of activity cycles. We use the phenomenon that the active region latitudes vary with the cycle (like the solar butterfly diagram), which causes the observed rotation period to change as a consequence of differential rotation. We find cycles in 8 cases of the 39 promising targets with periods between of 300–900 days.

I discuss the connection between the rotation rate of late-type dwarf stars and their level of surface “activity” (as deduced from visible, UV, and X-ray observations) from both theoretical and observational perspectives.

This report of Commission 35, as in past reports, consists of some details of only a few selected topics. This is necessary because a survey of the entire field of stellar formation, structure, stability, evolution, pulsation, and explosions for the three year period from mid-1981 to mid-1984 would be excessively long. Our topics here, in order from the most massive stellar classes to the least are: Massive Stars (R.M. Humphreys), Rotation in Late Type Stars (W. Benz), Helioseismology (J. Christensen-Dalsgaard), Planetary Nebula Central Stars (E.M. Sion), Pulsations in Hot Degenerate Dwarf Stars (A.N. Cox and S.D. Kawaler), and White Dwarfs (V. Weidemann). There is some overlap in the reviewing of these last three reports because the topics are very closely related. Concentration in this dying stage of stellar evolution seems appropriate because of the great current interest in these matters.

AbstractRecent observational and theoretical results are reviewed that pertain to the presence and characteristics of stellar coronae and winds in late-type stars. It is found that stars - principally dwarfs - exist with “hot” coronae similar to the Sun with thermally driven winds. For stars, at the lowest effective temperatures, and gravities characteristic of supergiant and giant stars, high temperature (~105K) atmospheres are absent (or if present are substantially weaker than in the dwarf stars), and massive winds are present. There also exist “hybrid” examples - luminous stars possessing both a “hot” corona and a supersonic stellar wind. Constraints for theoretical models are discussed.

Progress in observational techniques (i.e. high S/N spectroscopy) and modelling (e.g. RE models including convection, nonLTE codes, accurate atomic data) make significant to carry to extremes the numerical fit of a portion of the stellar spectrum and try to interpret the residual differences between calculations and observations in terms of stellar characteristics new respect to the employed model.We have started to apply this synthesis method to a set of high resolution, high S/N spectra of late-type dwarfs in the region of the Na I D lines, obtained at ESO with the 1.4m CAT on May 1989 (Franchini et al. 1992). The dwarf stars are modelled in radiative equilibrium (RE), and the Na I D line synthesis accounts for nonLTE and blend effects.
