My
name is Sarah Lakatos and I am a senior Astronomy major at
Villanova University in PA. This summer I am at MSU
working
with Piet Martens and Dibyendu Nandi on a project called "Modeling of Stellar
Magnetic Activity Inferred Through Ca H+K emission". I am gathering activity
data for stars that are similar to the sun, but have varying ages.
I have composed a chart that has many different stars as well as their
different characteristics such as, rotation period, age, dynamo period,
Rossby number, ect. I then made graphs relating the different properties
in the chart. For example the rotation period vs. age, and dynamo cycle
period vs. age, as well as the Rossby number and convective turnover time.
Here are a few example graphs:
