The second stage in our program to compile a list of regional intermediate-brightness spectrophotometric standards has been completed. We have obtained spectral energy distributions for 24 stars with magnitudes $7\mathop m\limits_. 0 - 8\mathop m\limits_. 5$ near +40° declination. The range λλ3100–7600 Å was studied with a spectral resolution of 50 Å. The relative rms error of our results in the visible is 1–2%, increasing to 3–5% toward the edges of the studied wavelength interval. All the stars are referenced to a single standard, the circumpolar star HD 221525. The energy distributions were used to compute color indices in the UBV, WBVR, and UPXY ZV S systems, as well as in the system of the TYCHO catalog. The computed and observed values for stars in common with the TYCHO catalog are compared. 相似文献

We present the results of our U BV R c I c photoelectric and CCD photometry of the NLS1 galaxy Ark 564 in 1987–2004. Between late 1997 and 2002, a slight increase in brightness was observed followed by a small but systematic decline until 2004. Ark 564 has a low variability amplitude, within 0.2 m in the U BV R c I c bands. The galaxy’s spectral energy distribution at 3600–9000 Å is unlike those for Seyfert 1 (Syl) galaxies. A delay of the Ic flux relative to the B flux of about three days was found, which is in agreement with the standard disk model. This delay probably reflects the geometric size of the region that emits the observed continuum. 相似文献

We have performed a detailed statistical-equilibrium analysis based on a 49-level model of the magnesium atom for the atmospheres of stars of various spectral types: T eff=4500–12000 K, log g=0.0–4.5, and [M/H]=0 to ?3. In the atmospheres of stars with T eff>5500 K, deviations from LTE for Mg I are due to photoionization by ultraviolet radiation from the 3p level; i.e., neutral magnesium is in a state of “superionization.” When T eff<5500 K, the populations of the Mg I levels differ from their LTE values due to radiative processes in bound-bound transitions. We analyzed Mg I lines in the solar spectrum in order to empirically refine certain atomic parameters (the van der Waals broadening constant C 6 and cross sections for photoionization and collisional interactions with hydrogen atoms) and the magnesium abundance in the solar atmosphere. We studied non-LTE effects for five Mg I lines for a wide range of stellar parameters. In the case of dwarfs and subdwarfs, the magnitude of non-LTE corrections to magnesium abundances does not exceed 0.1 dex for the λλ 4571, 4703, 5528, and 5711 Å lines but can be as large as ±0.2 dex for the λλ 3829–3838, 5172, and 5183 Å lines. The non-LTE corrections for giants and supergiants do not exceed 0.15 dex for the λλ 4571 and 5711 Å lines but can reach ±0.20 dex and even more for the λλ 4703, 5528, 3829–3838, 5172, and 5183 Å lines. 相似文献

The spottedness of two stars characterized by significant photometric variability is studied using published data: the recently discovered variable ASAS 063656-0521.0, whose V variability reaches 0.8 m , and XXTri (HD12545), which is among the most active RSCVn stars (in 1997–1998, the amplitude of its V variability was 0.63 m ). The spots cover up to 44% of the total visible surface S of ASAS 063656-0521.0. The mean estimated spottedness of XX Tri was 32%, and varied from29% to 36%. An analysis of the dependence of the spottedness on the properties of spotted stars, primarily their effective temperatures, is also presented. A modification of a simplifiedmethod for estimating the spottedness S, i.e., the fractional surface area of the spots, is applied to a sample of 48 late-type stars. The dependences of the spottedness on the effective temperature of the stars and the rotational velocity projected onto the line of sight are derived. Two groups of objects can be distinguished. The first contains stars displaying the typical dependence of S on the effective temperature (their maximum value of S is 20–25% for stars with temperatures 4500–5000 K, and S decreases for solar-type stars and cool M dwarfs). The second group is formed of the most active stars, which have temperatures of 3700–5200 K and S values from 25% to 50%. Our preliminary conclusion is that spottedness is not related to the period of the stellar rotation. The previously studied variable V410 Tau is used to consider the shortcomings of the method applied compared to the results of light-curve modeling. 相似文献

The angular diameters, radii, and effective temperatures of 16 G0–G5 main-sequence stars with color excesses 0.60≤ B-V≤0.68 and parallaxes derived from Hipparcos data have been determined using their infrared fluxes, obtained from JHKLM photometric observations. For all the stars except BS 483, these effective temperatures differ from the spectroscopic temperatures by no more than 1–2%. Such differences are within the uncertainties expected for the IR-flux method. The effective temperatures of BS 483 derived from its infrared fluxes are 3% higher than those indicated by spectroscopic observations; this may be due to the specific atmospheric structure of this star. Spectroscopic observations at 3400–7500 Å and JHKLM photometric observations are compared with analogous solar data and Kurucz models. The best agreement with the model with T eff=5750 K and log g=4.5 in the interval 4400–7500 Å was obtained for BS 7503 and BS 7504 (16 Cyg A and 16 Cyg B). The infrared color indices H-K, K-L, and K-M for these stars differ from the corresponding solar indices, and their angular diameters grow with wavelength, which is not the case for the Sun. H-K for BS 6060, currently considered to be the closest analog to the Sun, is near the solar value. The vast majority of the stars studied (13 of 16) have higher luminosities than the Sun. These include 16 Cyg A, 16 Cyg B, and 51 Peg, which thus cannot be considered full “twins” of the Sun. 相似文献

Ferrovalleriite, ideally 2(Fe,Cu)S · 1.5Fe(OH) 2, a layered hydroxide-sulfide of the valleriite group and an analog of valleriite with Fe instead of Mg in the hydroxide block, has been approved by the IMA Commission on New Minerals, Nomenclature and Classification as a valid mineral species. It was found in the Oktyabr’sky Mine, Noril’sk, Krasnoyarsk krai, Siberia, Russia. Ferrovalleriite occurs in cavities of massive sulfide ore mainly consisting of cubanite and mooihoekite. In different cases, it is associated with magnetite, Fe-rich chlorite-like phyllosilicate, ferrotochilinite, hibbingite, or rhodochrosite. Ferrovalleriite forms crystals flattened on [001] (from scaly to tabular; up to 5 mm across and up to 0.3 mm thick), typically split and curved. Occasionally, they are combined into aggregates up to 1.5 × 2 cm. Ferrovalleriite is dark bronze-colored, with a metallic luster and black streak. The Mohs’ hardness is ca. 1; VHN is 35 kg/mm 2. Cleavage is perfect parallel to {001}, mica-like. Individuals are flexible and inelastic. D(calc) = 3.72 g/cm 3. In reflected light, ferrovalleriite is pleochroic from yellowish to gray; bireflectance is moderate. Anisotropy is strong, with bluish gray to yellowish beige rotation colors. Reflectance values [ R 1– R 2 %, (λ, nm)] are: 15.6–16.6 (470), 14.8–20.5 (546), 14.7–22.3 (589), 14.5–24.1 (650). The IR spectrum shows the presence of (OH) groups bonded with Fe cations and the absence of H2O molecules. The chemical composition of the holotype (wt %; electron microprobe, H content is calculated) is as follows: 0.10 Al, 0.03 Mn, 45.31 Fe, 0.07 Ni, 18.29 Cu, 20.37 S, 15.62 O, 0.98 H, total is 100.77. The empirical formula calculated on the basis of 2 S atoms is: Al 0.01Fe 2.55Cu 0.91S 2(OH) 3.07 = (Fe 1.09Cu 0.91) Σ2S 2 · (Fe 1.34 2+ Fe 0.12 3+ Al 0.01) Σ1.47(OH) 3.07. The structure of ferrovalleriite is incommensurate (misfit); two sublattices are present: (1) sulfide sublattice, space group $R\bar 3m$ , R3 m or R32; the unit-cell dimensions are: a = 3.792(2), c = 34.06(3) Å, V = 424(1) Å 3 and (2) hydroxide sublattice, space group $P\bar 3m1$ , P3 m1 or P321; the unit-cell dimensions: a = 3.202(3), c = 11.35(2)Å, V = 100.8(3) Å 3. Together with this main polytype modification with three-layer ( R-cell, Z = 3) sulfide block, the holotype ferrovalleriite contains the modification with one-layer ( P-cell, Z = 1) sulfide block (sulfide sublattice with $P\bar 3m1$ , P3 m1 or P321, unit cell dimensions: a = 3.789(4), c = 11.35(1) Å, V = 141(5) Å 3). The strongest reflections in the X-ray powder pattern ( d, Å- I) are: 5.69–100; 3.268–58; 3.163–36; 1.894–34; 1.871–45. 相似文献

Photometric observations of the radio source S5 0716+714 were obtained in BV RI filters from January 20, 1998 to January 9, 2001 with Zeiss-600 and Zeiss-1000 telescopes of the Special Astrophysical Observatory of the Russian Academy of Sciences. The light curves in all the bands are synchronous, providing evidence for the real variability of the object in timescales, from hundreds of days to 5–10 min. No time shift between events in the adjacent filters was detected. The variability spectrum at frequencies of 0.003–100 d ?1 (3.5 × 10 ?8–1.1 × 10 ?3 Hz) is close to that of a flicker noise. The optical spectral index α ( S ~ v α) varies from ?1.59 at the minimum to ?1.13 at the maximum brightness. Measurements of linear polarization in BV R carried out on April 12–13, 2000 confirmed a high degree of polarization and rapid fluctuations of the polarization in a timescale of 15–30 min, whose amplitude decreases at red wavelengths. All the optical properties of the source, its compactness, the absence of spectral lines, the high degree of polarization, and very rapid fluctuations of the brightness, polarization, and spectral index, suggest a synchrotron origin for optical radiation. It may be that we are observing the radiation from a group of very compact bodies (~10 ?10 arcsec) at various stages of their evolution. 相似文献

Our long-time monitoring of the B[e] star and transient X-ray source CI Cam during quiescence following the 1998 outburst demonstrates that the complex, stratified circumstellar envelope has tended to stabilize after this structure was perturbed by the passage of a shock wave from the outburst. The star’s U BV R brightness shows slow, possibly cyclic, variations with an amplitude of about 0.2 m. We determined the spectral type of the primary, B4III-V, based on the widths of the absorption wings of high-numbered Balmer lines. A Doppler shift of 460 km/s was detected for the Hell λ4686 Å emission line. The shifts in this line yield an orbital period of 19.41 days, which is also manifested itself in the photometric data as a wave with a V amplitude of 0.034 m. The orbit is elliptical, with an eccentricity of 0.62. It is most likely that the secondary is a white dwarf surrounded by an accretion disk. The primary’s mass exceeds 12 M ⊙ . The system may be at a late stage of its evolution, after the stage of mass exchange. 相似文献

We transformed radial velocities compiled from more than 1400 published sources, including the Geneva-Copenhagen survey of the solar neighborhood (CORAVEL-CfA), into a uniform system based on the radial velocities of 854 standard stars in our list. This enabled us to calculate the average weighted radial velocities for more than 25000 HIPPARCOS stars located in the local Galactic spiral arm (Orion arm) with a median error of ±1 km/s. We use these radial velocities together with the stars’ coordinates, parallaxes, and proper motions to determine their Galactic coordinates and space velocities. These quantities, along with other parameters of the stars, are available from the continuously updated Orion Spiral Arm Catalogue (OSACA) and the associated database. We perform a kinematic analysis of the stars by applying an Ogorodnikov-Milne model to the OSACA data. The kinematics of the nearest single and multiple main-sequence stars differ substantially. We used distant ( -r ≈ 0.2 kpc) stars of mixed spectral composition to estimate the angular velocity of the Galactic rotation, ω o = ?25.7 ± 1.2 kms ?1 kpc ?1, and the vertex deviation, l = 13° ± 2°, and detected a negative K effect. This negative K effect is most conspicuous in the motion of A0–A5 giants and is equal to K = ?13.1 ± 2.0 kms ?1 kpc ?1. 相似文献

High-pressure phase transitions of CaRhO 3 perovskite were examined at pressures of 6–27 GPa and temperatures of 1,000–1,930°C, using a multi-anvil apparatus. The results indicate that CaRhO 3 perovskite successively transforms to two new high-pressure phases with increasing pressure. Rietveld analysis of powder X-ray diffraction data indicated that, in the two new phases, the phase stable at higher pressure possesses the CaIrO 3-type post-perovskite structure (space group Cmcm) with lattice parameters: a = 3.1013(1) Å, b = 9.8555(2) Å, c = 7.2643(1) Å, V m = 33.43(1) cm 3/mol. The Rietveld analysis also indicated that CaRhO 3 perovskite has the GdFeO 3-type structure (space group Pnma) with lattice parameters: a = 5.5631(1) Å, b = 7.6308(1) Å, c = 5.3267(1) Å, V m = 34.04(1) cm 3/mol. The third phase stable in the intermediate P, T conditions between perovskite and post-perovskite has monoclinic symmetry with the cell parameters: a = 12.490(3) Å, b = 3.1233(3) Å, c = 8.8630(7) Å, β = 103.96(1)°, V m = 33.66(1) cm 3/mol ( Z = 6). Molar volume changes from perovskite to the intermediate phase and from the intermediate phase to post-perovskite are –1.1 and –0.7%, respectively. The equilibrium phase relations determined indicate that the boundary slopes are large positive values: 29 ± 2 MPa/K for the perovskite—intermediate phase transition and 62 ± 6 MPa/K for the intermediate phase—post-perovskite transition. The structural features of the CaRhO 3 intermediate phase suggest that the phase has edge-sharing RhO 6 octahedra and may have an intermediate structure between perovskite and post-perovskite. 相似文献

The Vienna Atomic Line Database (VALD) has been supplemented with new data and new functionality—the possibility of taking into account the effect of hyperfine splitting (HFS) of atomic levels in the analysis of line profiles. This has been done through the creation of an ancillary SQL database with the HFS constants for atomic levels of 58 isotopes of 30 neutral and singly-ionized atoms. The completeness of the collected data and new opportunities for studies of stars of various spectral types is analyzed. The database enables analysis of splitting of up to 60% of lines with measurable effects in the ultraviolet (λ ≳ 1000 Å ), and up to 100% of such lines in the optical and infrared ranges (λ ≲ 25 000 Å ) for A–M stars. In the spectra of hot O–B stars, it is necessary to use laboratory measurements for atoms in the second and higher stages of ionization. 相似文献

The parameters of the quadruple system ADS 9626 (µ Boo) are analyzed. The system consists of two double stars: the Aa pair with an angular separation of ρ = 0.08″ and the BC pair with an angular separation of ρ = 2.2″, separated by ρ = 107″ and having the same parallaxes and proper motions. Position observations with the Pulkovo 26″ refractor have yielded from direct astrometric measurements the difference in the apparent magnitudes and the component-mass ratio for the BC subsystem: Δ m = 0.59 ± 0.06, M(B)/ M(C) = 1.18 ± 0.02. Spectroscopy with the Russian-Turkish 1.5-m telescope has yielded the radial velocities and physical parameters of the Aa, B, and C components. Speckle-interferometric observations with the 6-m telescope of the Special Astrophysical Observatory have provided the first measurements of the magnitude difference in the close Aa subsystem: Δ m = 0.46 ± 0.03 ( λ = 5500 Å) and Δ m = 0.41 ± 0.03 ( λ = 8000 Å). The new observations are consistent with the known orbits, which were used to find the radial velocities for the centers of mass of the inner subsystems. Themotion of the outer pair, Aa-BC, is studied using the apparent motion parameters (AMP) method. It is not possible to derive an elliptical orbit for this pair; the elements of a hyperbolic orbit have been estimated. The difference of the heavy-element abundances for the Aa and BC subsystems of 0.5 dex confirms that these pairs have a different origin. This suggests that we are observing here a close encounter of two binary stars. 相似文献

We analyze the formation of lines of neutral sulfur in the spectra of F-K stars taking into account the effects of deviations from local thermodynamical equilibrium (LTE). Our calculations were carried out for Kurucz model atmospheres with T eff = 5000–6500 K, log g = 2?4 and [Fe/H] = ?4?0, using a 65-level model of the SI atom. Deviations from LTE affect lines of different multiplets of the sulfur atom differently. Non-LTE corrections, which are relatively small (to ?0.10 dex) for the 6543–6557 Å lines, increase to ?0.26 dex for the 8694 Å line, and reach ?1.1 dex for the 9212–9237 Å IR triplet. The model of the atom was verified by modeling the sulfur lines of the studied multiplets in the spectra of the Sun, two main sequence stars, and two supergiants. Good consistency with the observed line profiles was obtained. Failure to take into account strong non-LTE-effects may explain the large sulfur excesses detected in stars with very low metal abundances. 相似文献

Polished sections of 5 enstatite chondrites have been irradiated with 30 MeV 4He ions to produce the alpha-radioactive nuclei 211At and 210Po from 209Bi and 208Pb, respectively. The distribution of alpha activity can be mapped, using cellulose nitrate as an alpha track detector, to give the corresponding Bi or Pb distributions in the meteorite. No strong localization of Bi or 208Pb was found; relatively uniform track distributions were observed. In particular, metal or sulfide grains are not enriched in Bi or Pb (relative to bulk), which is in agreement with the predictions of nebular condensation calculations. While the track distributions appear uniform, the results of detailed, track-by-track mappings of the Bi detectors indicate that the Bi is not totally randomly distributed; the statistical fluctuations in the observed track density are different for the cases where the Bi is totally randomly distributed and where the Bi is localized in point sources. Assuming that the Bi in a given sample is localized in identical point sources which are uniformly distributed throughout the sample, the observed relative population densities of clusters (‘stars’) of small numbers of tracks (2–5) corresponds to Bi being localized, with ~90% in grains with about 10 ?16g-Bi (~3 × 10 5Biatoms), and with ~10% in 4 × 10 ?14 g-Bi sources. If these are elemental Bi, as predicted theoretically, they are ~ 10 2 Å and 10 3 Å in size, respectively. 相似文献

We investigated spatial and temporal changes in spectral irradiance, phytoplankton community composition, and primary productivity in North Inlet Estuary, South Carolina, USA. High concentrations of colored dissolved organic matter (CDOM) were responsible for up to 84 % of the attenuation of photosynthetically available radiation (PAR). Green-yellow wavelengths were the predominant colors of light available at the two sampling sites: Clam Bank Creek and Oyster Landing. Vertical attenuation coefficients of PAR were 0.7–2.1 m ?1 with corresponding euphotic zone depths of 1.5–6.7 m. Phytoplankton biomass (as chlorophyll a [chl a]) varied seasonally with a summer maximum of 16 μg chl a l ?1 and a winter minimum of 1.4 μg chl a l ?1. The phytoplankton community consisted mainly of diatoms, prasinophytes, cryptophytes and haptophytes, with diatoms and prasinophytes accounting for up to 67 % of total chl a. Changes in phytoplankton community composition showed strongest correlations with temperature. Light-saturated chl a-specific rates of photosynthesis and daily primary productivity varied with season and ranged from 1.6 to 14 mg C (mg chl a) ?1?h ?1 (32–803 mg C m ?3?day ?1). Calculated daily rates added up to an annual carbon fixation rate of 84 g C m ?3?year ?1. Overall, changes in phytoplankton community composition and primary productivity in North Inlet showed a strong dependence on temperature, with PAR and spectral irradiance playing a relatively minor role due to short residence times, strong tidal forcing and vertical mixing. 相似文献

Rujevac is a low-temperature hydrothermal polymetallic Sb-Pb-Zn-As vein-type ore deposit, hosted within a volcanogenic-sedimentary zone situated in the Rujevac-Crvene Stene-Brezovica Diabase-Chert Formation (DCF) of the Podrinje Metallogenic District (PMD), Serbia. It is located several kilometers SE from the Boranja contact aureole, which is an integral part of the PMD in Western Serbia. Genetically related to the Tertiary granodioritic magma, the mineral assemblages are characterized by specific features. The mineral association of this deposit consists of sulfides, Pb-Sb(As) sulfosalts, native metals, oxides, hydroxides and gangue minerals. Chemical composition of the ore is very complex, where contents of valuable metals range as follows: Sb (0.17–24.31 wt.%), Zn (0.21–6.29 wt.%), Pb (0.15–6.33 wt.%), As (0.06–1.28 wt.%), Cd (25–747 ppm), Ag (7–408 ppm), Hg (13–473 ppm), and Tl (<1–29 ppm). Electron Probe Microanalyses (EPMA) of native arsenic from both the Rujevac and Stragari deposits showed contents of As up to 98.8 and 97.1 wt.%, with impurity contents of Sb up to 1.3 and 6.6 wt.%, and Tl up to 2 and 1.3 wt.%, respectively. Rhombohedral unit-cell parameters for native arsenic from Rujevac and Stragari deposits amount to: a?=?3.760(2), c?=?10.555(3) Å, V?=?129.23(7) Å 3 and a?=?3.763(1), c?=?10.560(5) Å, V?=?129.48(8) Å 3, respectively. Mineral assemblages, deposition order and genesis of the Rujevac polymetallic deposit were also discussed in detail. Native arsenic mineralization here has been additionally compared with similar well-known global deposits. 相似文献

The non-LTE formation of KI lines in the spectra of A-K stars is analyzed. The computations are based on a 36-level model of the neutral potassium atom for blanketed LTE Kurucz model atmospheres with T eff=4000–10000 K, log g=0.0–4.5, and [ M/H]=(0.0)–(?2.0). The KI atoms in the atmospheres of these stars are in states of moderate and strong “over-recombination.” A number of atomic parameters are refined using the profiles and equivalent widths of five lines in the solar spectrum. The classical van der Waals damping constants must be increased by factors of 2–60 to fit the observed profiles. The non-LTE solar potassium abundance—logε (K)=5.14—corresponds to the meteoritic abundance. Non-LTE corrections to the potassium abundance are important and equal to ?0.4...?0.7 dex for the λ7699 Å line and ?0.15...?0.3 dex for the λλ12522, 12432, and 11769 Å lines. 相似文献

Single crystals of Li-aegirine LiFe 3+Si 2O 6 were synthesized at 1573?K and 3?GPa, and a polycrystalline sample suitable for neutron diffraction was produced by ceramic sintering at 1223?K. LiFe 3+Si 2O 6 is monoclinic, space group C2 /c, a=9.6641(2)?Å, b= 8.6612(3)?Å, c=5.2924(2)?Å, β=110.12(1) ° at 300?K as refined from powder neutron data. At 229?K Li-aegirine undergoes a phase transition from C2 /c to P2 1 /c. This is indicated by strong discontinuities in the temperature variation of the lattice parameters, especially for the monoclinic angle β and by the appearance of Bragg reflections (hkl) with h+k≠2 n. In the low-temperature form two non-equivalent Si-sites with 〈SiA–O〉=1.622?Å and 〈SiB–O〉=1.624?Å at 100?K are present. The bridging angles of the SiO 4 tetrahedra O3–O3–O3 are 192.55(8)° and 160.02(9)° at 100?K in the two independent tetrahedral chains in space group P2 1 /c, whereas it is 180.83(9)° at 300?K in the high-temperature C2 /c phase, i.e. the chains are nearly fully expanded. Upon the phase transition the Li-coordination changes from six to five. At 100?K four Li–O bond lengths lie within 2.072(4)–2.172(3)?Å, the fifth Li–O bond length is 2.356(4)?Å, whereas the Li–O3?A bond lengths amount to 2.796(4)?Å. From 57Fe Mössbauer spectroscopic measurements between 80 and 500?K the structural phase transition is characterized by a small discontinuity of the quadrupole splitting. Temperature-dependent neutron powder diffraction experiments show first occurrence of magnetic reflections at 16.5?K in good agreement with the point of inflection in the temperature-dependent magnetization of LiFe 3+Si 2O 6. Distinct preordering phenomena can be observed up to 35?K. At the magnetic phase transition the unit cell parameters exhibit a pronounced magneto-striction of the lattice. Below T N Li-aegirine shows a collinear antiferromagnetic structure. From our neutron powder diffraction experiments we extract a collinear antiferromagnetic spin arrangement within the a– c plane. 相似文献

The magnetic-field structure in solar active regions outside spots is studied. The line-of-sight fields were measured using the new Crimean digital magnetograph in three spectral lines—Fe I 5253 Å, Fe II 5234 Å, and Ti I 5193 Å. Observations in the Fe II 5234 Å line indicate systematically higher field strengths than those in the Fe I 5253 Å line. The magnetic fluxes in 2″ elements are ~4.3×10 18 Mx, ~4.6×10 18 Mx, and ~6.2×10 18 Mx according to the Fe I 5253 Å, Ti I 5193 Å, and FeII 5234 Å observations, respectively. Elements 2″–8″ in size make the largest contribution to the magnetic fluxes of active regions outside spots. 相似文献

The spottedness parameters S (the fraction of the visible surface of the star occupied by spots) characterizing the activity of 674 stars in the Beehive Cluster (age 650 Myr) are estimated, together with variations of this parameter as a function of the rotation period, Rossby number Ro and other characteristics of the stars. The activity of the stars in this cluster is lower than the activity of stars in the younger Pleiades (125 Myr). The average S value for the Beehive Cluster stars is 0.014, while Pleiades stars have the much higher average value 0.052. The activity parameters of 61 solar-type stars in the Beehive Cluster, similar Hyades stars (of about the same age), and stars in the younger Pleiades are compared. The average S value of such objects in the Beehive Cluster is 0.014± 0.008, nearly coincident with the estimate obtained for solar-type Hyades stars. The rotation periods of these objects are 9.1 ± 3.4 day, on average, in agreement with the average rotation period of the Hyades stars (8.6 d ). Stars with periods exceeding 3–4 d are more numerous in the Beehive Cluster than in the Pleiades, and their periods have a larger range, 3–30 d . The characteristic dependence with a kink at Ro (saturation) = 0.13 is not observed in the S–Rossby number diagram for the Beehive and Hyades stars, only a clump of objects with Rossby numbers Ro > 0.7. The spottedness data for the Beehive Cluster and Hyades stars are in good agreement with the S values for dwarfs with ages of 600–700 Myr. This provides evidence for the reliability of the results of gyrochronological calibrations. The data for the Beehive and Pleiades stars are used to analyze variations in the spot-forming activity for a large number of stars of the same age that are members of a single cluster. A joint consideration of the data for two clusters can be used to draw conclusions about the time evolution of the activity of stars of different masses (over a time interval of the order of 500 Myr). 相似文献
