| Associated research grant: | 18/04055-8 - High precision spectroscopy: from the first stars to planets, AP.TEM |
| Associated scholarship(s): | 23/16319-8 - Analysis of stellar activity signals in solar-type stars using Gaussian Processes, BE.EP.DD |
Abstract This project aims to better understand stellar activity through characterization of lines with chromospheric contribution, such as the Ca II H and K lines. We also intend to model the effect of stellar activity on radial velocities, which is key in our quest to characterize exoplanets, especially small planets such as super-Earths and in the future Earth analogs.
