Active Kepler stars differential rotation

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

In addition to the discovery of hundreds of exoplanets, the high-precision photometry from the CoRoT and Kepler satellites has led to measurements of surface rotation periods for tens of thousands of stars, which can potentially be used to infer stellar ages via gyrochronology.

Description

Our main goal is to derive ages of thousands of field stars using consistent rotation period measurements derived by different methods. Multiple rotation periods are interpreted as surface differential rotation (DR).

We study the dependence of DR with rotation period and effective temperature. We reanalyze a previously studied sample of 24,124 Kepler stars using different approaches based on the Lomb- Scargle periodogram. Each quarter (Q1-Q14) is treated individually using a prewhitening approach.

Additionally, the full time series and their different segments are analyzed.
