Observation and modelling of main-sequence star chromospheres

Abstract: Aims. We aim to constrain the H α , CaII H and CaII K line profiles of quiescent and active regions of nine dM1 stars of near solar metallicity: Gl 2, GJ 1010A, Gl 49, Gl 150.1B, Gl 205, Gl 229, Gl 526, G192-11A, and Gl 880. Methods. We propose a new method for building two-component model chromospheres for dM1 stars-based on simple constraints and a grid of model atmospheres developed by Houdebine & Stempels. This method is based on the measurements of the equivalent width of H α and CaII H & K. Based on the … Show more

“…This time the Hα profile appears as two emission features either side of the expected wavelength with absorption in between. Such self-absorption of Hα emission is commonly seen in active M dwarfs (Worden et al 1981;Houdebine et al 1995;Mauas 2000). The radial velocity measurement for this second spectrum was -6.7±0.1 km s −1 .…”

“…Previous chromospheric models for M dwarf stars were usually computed to fit only the Ca II, Hα, and Na I D lines (e.g., Mauas et al 1997;Houdebine & Stempels 1997;Short & Doyle 1998;Fuhrmeister, Schmitt, & Hauschildt 2005;Houdebine 2009Houdebine , 2010a).…”

“…We aim here at collecting large samples of high‐resolution spectra for two different spectral types, dK5 and dM4, in order to develop two‐component model chromospheres for these stars such as those developed by Houdebine (2009a, hereafter Paper XII) and Houdebine (2010a, hereafter Paper IX) for dM1 stars. Two‐component model chromospheres are composed of a plage component and a quiescent chromosphere component with a fixed ratio in the Ca ii lines between these two components (see Paper IX).…”
