Stellar activity with LAMOST – II. Chromospheric activity in open clusters

Abstract

We use the LAMOST spectra of member stars in Pleiades, M34, Praesepe, and Hyades to study how chromospheric activity vary as a function of mass and rotation at different age. We measured excess equivalent widths of H$��$, H$��$, and Ca~{\sc ii} K based on estimated chromospheric contributions from old and inactive field dwarfs, and excess luminosities are obtained by normalizing bolometric luminosity, for more than 700 late-type stars in these open clusters. Results indicate two activity sequences in cool spot coverage and H$��$ excess emission among GK dwarfs in Pleiades and M dwarfs in Praesepe and Hyades, paralleling with well known rotation sequences. A weak dependence of chromospheric emission on rotation exists among ultra fast rotators in saturated regime with Rossby number Ro$\lesssim0.1$. In the unsaturated regime, chromospheric and coronal emission show similar dependence on Ro, but with a shift toward larger Ro, indicating chromospheric emission gets easily saturated than coronal emission, and/or convective turnover time-scales based on X-ray data do not work well with chromospheric emission. More interestingly, our analysis show fully convective slow rotators obey the rotation-chromospheric activity relation similar to hotter stars, confirming the previous finding. We found correlations among H$��$, H$��$, and Ca~{\sc ii} K emissions, in which H$��$ losses are more important than Ca~{\sc ii} K for cooler and more active stars. In addition, a weak correlation is seen between chromospheric emission and photospheric activity that shows dependency on stellar spectral type and activity level, which provides some clues on how spot configuration vary as a function of mass and activity level.
