内容記述 | The IUE spectra of bright F-K dwarfs were used to investigate rotational modulation in chromospheric and transition region emission lines, with Stellingwerf's phase dispersion minimization (PDM) technique as the basis of time series analysis. Sampling-related aliases are found to dominate the PDM spectra in these sparsely sampled, irregularly spaced time series. The star chosen to illustrate the techniques is epsilon Eridani, a young, chromospherically active K2 dwarf. Strong indications of a rotation period close to 2.8 days in epsilon Eridani from 2 seasons of observations, with evidence for the persistence in longitude of the active area(s) over several hundred rotation cycles are found. |
