This postdoctoral 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.

Currently, it is believed that about 10% of Sun-like stars harbour planets around them. Today there are nearly 800 known planets and approximately 30% of these eclipses their host star. When passing in front of the star, the planet might cross in front of a spot on the surface of the star causing a small variation in the light curve during the transit. By using a model that simulates the …
