摘要:

在对流、自转和磁场的共同作用下,具有外部对流包层的类太阳恒星可以形成磁活动周期。即使在太阳中,这些发电机效应也尚未得到很好的理解,将这项研究扩展到具有不同特征的不同恒星将是极其重要的。HD 49933是一颗F5 V,太阳质量1.2的恒星,在最初的运行中被CoRoT观测了60天,大约6个月后又观测了137天。因此,这两次观察总共涵盖了400天。假设活动周期与恒星的旋转成正比(恒星的旋转速度比太阳快8-9倍,即,P_rot=3.4天),CoRoT观察结果可能有利于进行此类研究。这里采用的分析技术已经成功地测试了由VIRGO和GOLF在SoHO和地面MARK-I仪器上进行的太阳作为恒星的观测。

英文摘要:

Solar-like stars with an external convective envelope can develop magnetic activity cycles under the interaction of con- vection, rotation and magnetic fields. Even in the Sun, these dynamo effects are not yet well understood and it would be extremely important to extend this study to different stars with different characteristics. HD49933 is a F5V, 1.2 solar mass star that has been observed by CoRoT for 60 days during the initial Run and 137 more days about 6 months later. Thus, a total of 400 days have been covered with the two observations. Assuming that the activity cycle is proportional to the rotation of the star (which spins 8-9 times faster than the Sun, i.e., P_rot=3.4 days), CoRoT observations could be good to perform such study. The analysis techniques employed here hve already been successfully tested on sun-as-a-star observations done by VIRGO and GOLF on board SoHO and ground-based MARK-I instrument.
