Rapidly Rotating Lithium-rich K Giants: The New Case of the Giant PDS 365
PDS 365 is a newly detected, rapidly rotating (vsini=20 kms-1), single, low-mass giant star that with HD 233517 and HD219025 forms a remarkable ensemble of single K giants with the uniqueproperties of rapid rotation, very strong Li lines, an asymmetricalHα profile, and a large far-infrared excess. Their vsini valuesare between 18 and 23 km s-1, and their LTE Li abundances,logɛ(Li), are between 2.9 and 3.9. Detailed analysis of PDS 365reveals it to be a ~1 Msolar giant with a value of12C/13C approximately equal to 12. A clearrelation between high rotational velocities and very high Li abundancesfor K giant stars is found only when asymmetrical Hα profiles andlarge far-infrared excesses are present. If we consider single K giants,we find that among rapid (vsini>=8 km s-1) rotators, avery large proportion (~50%) are Li-rich giants. This proportion is incontrast with a very low proportion (~2%) of Li-rich stars among themuch more common slowly rotating K giants. This striking difference isdiscussed in terms of proposed mechanisms for Li enrichment.

A catalog of rotational and radial velocities for evolved stars
Rotational and radial velocities have been measured for about 2000evolved stars of luminosity classes IV, III, II and Ib covering thespectral region F, G and K. The survey was carried out with the CORAVELspectrometer. The precision for the radial velocities is better than0.30 km s-1, whereas for the rotational velocity measurementsthe uncertainties are typically 1.0 km s-1 for subgiants andgiants and 2.0 km s-1 for class II giants and Ib supergiants.These data will add constraints to studies of the rotational behaviourof evolved stars as well as solid informations concerning the presenceof external rotational brakes, tidal interactions in evolved binarysystems and on the link between rotation, chemical abundance and stellaractivity. In this paper we present the rotational velocity v sin i andthe mean radial velocity for the stars of luminosity classes IV, III andII. Based on observations collected at the Haute--Provence Observatory,Saint--Michel, France and at the European Southern Observatory, LaSilla, Chile.

Long-term monitoring of active stars. IV. UBV(RI)_c_ observations obtained at La Silla in December 1989.
High-precision UBV(RI)_c_ photometry of 23 selected acitve stars,collected at the European Southern Observatory (La Silla, Chile) overthe period 9-28 December 1989, is presented. This paper is part of alarger program focusing on the global properties and evolution of activestars and is aimed at establishing a time-extended database which cangive important clues on topics such as the stability of the spottedareas, differential rotation and solar-like cycles. Significantevolution of the wave-like light curves, period variations and, in mostcases, evidence for long-term variability of the global degree ofspottedness are found for the observed stars. Some spectralclassifications are rediscussed and evidence for a newly discoveredvariable star is given.

A catalog of stellar Lyman-alpha fluxes
We present a catalog of stellar Ly-alpha emission fluxes, based on newand archival images obtained with the IUE spacecraft. The catalogincludes 227 stars with detectable Ly-alpha emission fluxes, and upperlimits on the Ly-alpha emission flux for another 48 stars. Multiple fluxmeasurements are given for 52 stars. We present a model for correctingthe observed Ly-alpha flux for attenuation by the local interstellarmedium, and we apply this model to derive intrinsic Ly-alpha fluxes for149 catalog stars which are located in low H I column density directionsof the local interstellar medium. In our catalog, there are 14 late-Aand early-F stars at B-V = 0.29 or less that show detectable emission atLy-alpha. We find a linear correlation between the intrinsic Ly-alphaflux and C II 1335 A flux for stars with B-V greater than 0.60, but theA and F stars deviate from this relation in the sense that theirLy-alpha flux is too low. We also find a good correlation betweenLy-alpha strength and coronal X-ray emission. This correlation holdsover most of the H-R diagram, even for the F stars, where an X-raydeficit has previously been found relative to the transition regionlines of C II and C IV.

Lithium and rapid rotation in chromospherically active single giants
The rotational velocities presently obtained via spectroscopicobservations of a group of moderately rapidly rotating, chomosphericallyactive single giants indicate that Gray's (1989) rotostat hypothesisrequires modification. Their rapid rotation appears to be due to high Liabundances, and results in increased chromospheric activity. A scenariois projected in which the surface convection zone reaches the rapidlyrotating core just as a star begins its first ascent of the giantbranch, and dredges both high angular momentum material and freshlysynthesized Li to the surface.

Long-term monitoring of active stars. II - UBV(RI)c observations at ESO during January-March 1989
In the framework of a research program focusing on the global propertiesand evolution of photospheres and outer atmospheres of active stars, theauthor presents high-precision UBV(RI)c photometry of 15 selected RSCVn, BY Dra, and FK Com-type systems observed at the European SouthernObservatory (La Silla, Chile) in the period January-March 1989.Significant evolution both in amplitude and shape of the wave-like lightcurves is found with respect to previous observations. Evidence forlong-term variability for most of the observed stars is also presented,and some of the spectral classifications are rediscussed.

Lithium in RS CVn binaries and related chromospherically active stars. I - Observational results
The present survey of the Li I 6708 A line in a sample of spectral typeG and K stars with luminosity classes III, IV, and V shows that manyK-type stars in the sample, including a large number of RS CVn binaries,show an anomalously high Li abundance relative to typical inactive starsof the same spectral type. Only a few stars in the sample are likely tobe premain sequence objects of stars which have recently arrived on themain sequence. Mechanisms that could lead to the enhanced Li absorptionin chromospherically active stars are discussed; these encompass largecool spots on the stellar surface, the production of Li in stellarflares by spallation reactions, and the evolution from main-sequenceprogenitors without, or with very shallow, outer convective zones.

Magnetic structure in cool stars. XVII - Minimum radiative losses from the outer atmosphere
The emissions in several chromospheric and transition region lines andin coronal soft X-rays are analyzed for a sample of cool stars. Thenature of the lower-limit flux densities is explored, and evidence isgiven for the possibility of a basal, nonmagnetic heating mechanismbeing responsible for these emission fluxes up to, and perhapsincluding, the upper transition region. It is argued that the excessflux density, derived by subtraction of the basal flux density from theobserved stellar flux, is the proper measure of magnetic activity. Thelevel of the basal flux density as a function of color is determined tobe 2 x 10 exp 6 erg/sq cm/s for F-type stars and 2 x 10 exp 5 erg/sqcm/s for K-type stars.

Optical positions of radiostars. III
Precise optical positions, relative to either the Perth 70 or the AGK3Rcatalog have been obtained for 44 radiostars proposed to the Hipparcosobserving list. Precision levels between 0.17 and 0.28 arcsec wereobtained.

An astrometric catalogue of radio stars
The first part is presented of a radio star catalog encompassing 186objects whose selection was guided by the priority criteria of theHipparchos Input Catalogue Consortium. Since these criteria are wellsuited to the need for linkage of ground-based optical systems to radioreference frames, this first selection is also considered a suitablebase for the catalog. Seventeen categories of stellar parameters arefurnished for each of the stars, including optical and radio positions,optical and radio parallax, radial velocity, type of variability, andoptical structure.

Photometry of 50 suspected variable stars
Fifty stars have been chosen as suspected variable stars and analyzedfor variability. A large portion of this sample are stars that areeither proved active chromosphere stars or are candidates for suchactivity. The photometric data base consists of differential Vmeasurements of the Vanderbilt 16 inch (41 cm) automatic photoelectrictelescope and 25 observers at 26 observatories worldwide. Publishedphotometric data have also been utilized, with proper adjustments madeto ensure that all magnitudes are differential. Searches for photometricperiod, amplitudes, and times of minimum light showed 68 percent of thesample to be photometrically variable with periods found for 34. Twostars were deemed norvariable for the period of observation. Conclusivestatements could not be made concerning the photometric variability ofthe 14 remaining stars.

Chromospheric CA II H and K and H-alpha emission in single and binary stars of spectral types F6-M2
New observations of the Ca II H and K and H-epsilon region and/or theBalmer H-alpha line are presented for 100 mostly very active stars butalso for weak or inactive stars with suspected activity. Correlationsbetween chromospheric activity at Ca II H and K and H-alpha andeffective surface temperature and rotation are identified, and severalnew stars with chromospheric Ca II H and K emission are discovered. Nosingle activity-rotation relation can be derived for all luminosityclasses, and there is clear evidence that evolved stars are generallymore active than main-sequence stars of the same rotation period. Binarywithin the evolved stars appears to play no role, while main-sequencebinary stars show generally higher levels of activity than their singlecounterparts. Chromospheric emission in the Ca II H and K lines dependson surface temperature in that flux declines with cooler temperature.

Lithium and chromospherically active single giants
Nine chromospherically active single K giants were identified fromsurveys of chromospherically active stars. The stars have v sin i'sranging from 6 to 46 km/sec. Such large velocities are not explained byscenarios of main sequence to giant star evolution. Fluxes of theultraviolet emission lines of these stars are substantially less thanthose of FK Comae. Many of these giants have a moderate or stronglithium line strongly suggesting that these stars recently evolved fromrapidly rotating A or early F stars as is suggested by their spacemotions. Thus, they are not spun down FK Com stars. The characteristicsof these stars are such that they may be confused with pre-main sequencestars. The primary difference may be that the post main sequence starshave strong H alpha absorption lines while the pre-main sequence starsappear to have a weak H alpha absorption line or possibly H alpha inemission above the continuum.

A microwave survey of southern active stars
The results of a survey of 153 active-chromosphere stars made with theParkes 64-m telescope at 5.0/8.4 GHz from 1981 to 1987 are reported.Microwave emission was detected from 70 stars on at least one occasion,with the highest detection rate of 68 percent from the RS CVn group. TheCa II stars and Algol-type binaries yielded detection rates of 44 and 30percent, respectively. The maximum powers emitted by the stars at5.0/8.4 GHz ranged over five orders of magnitude, with a median of 2.5 x10 to the 10th W/Hz. The maximum brightness temperatures had a smallerrange of three orders of magnitude, with a median of 3.6 x 10 to the 9thK.

The dependence of ultraviolet chromospheric emission upon rotation among late-type stars
Integrated fluxes of chromospheric and transition region emission lineshave been measured from low-resolution IUE spectra, obtained between1981 and 1985, of a large number of chromospherically active stars. Itis found that chromospherically active stars of the same R(C IV) show aspread in rotation rate that is as large as that of dwarf stars at fixedR(C IV) and that is correlated with spectral type. The UV emission ofthe active chromospheric stars decreases in strength with decliningrotation rate, but shows little dependence upon rotation withinindividual luminosity classes. It is suggested that the lack ofdifferences noted between rotation-activity relations for single, slowlyrotating dwarf stars is due to the monotonic increase of both theaverage Rossby number and the average rotation period with laterspectral type along the main sequence.

UBV(RI)c photometry for CaII emission stars. I - Observations at Sutherland
Extensive photometry in the UBV(RI)c system is given for 55 stars withstrong Ca II H and K emission. The UBV observations were made relativeto the standard stars of Lloyd Evans et al. (1983) while the (RI)cobservations were made relative to E-region standards over greaterangular distances. The data are plotted in phase diagrams.

Radial velocities of calcium emission stars. I - Observations at Sutherland
Radial velocities are presented for 53 bright late-type stars withemission in the H and K lines of Ca II, which is indicative of a highlevel of chromospheric activity. Most of the stars are spectroscopicbinaries, for which orbital elements are presented.

Rapidly rotating single late-type giants: New FK Comae stars?
A group of rapidly rotating single late-type giants was found fromsurveys of chromospherically active stars. These stars have V sin I'sranging from 6 to 46 km/sec, modest ultraviolet emission line fluxes,and strong H alpha absorption lines. Although certainlychromospherically active, their characteristics are much less extremethan those of FK Com and one or two other similar systems. One possibleexplanation for the newly identified systems is that they have evolvedfrom stars similar to FK Com. The chromospheric activity and rotation ofsingle giant stars like FK Com would be expected to decrease with timeas they do in single dwarfs. Alternatively, this newly identified groupmay have evolved from single rapidly rotating A, or early F stars.

E. W. Fick Observatory stellar radial velocity measurements. I - 1976-1984
Stellar radial velocity observations made with the large vacuumhigh-dispersion photoelectric radial velocity spectrometer at FickObservatory are reported. This includes nearly 2000 late-type starsobserved during 585 nights. Gradual modifications to this instrumentover its first eight years of operation have reduced the observationalerror for high-quality dip observations to + or - 0.8 km/s.

A survey of chromospherically active stars
Photometric and/or spectroscopic observations have been obtained of 52late-type stars which are suspected or known to be chromosphericallyactive. Although not all types of observations were obtained for eachstar, these observations include all-sky BVRI Johnson photometry,ultraviolet spectrograms, low-dispersion blue-wavelength spectrograms,and high-dispersion red-wavelength spectrograms. From the spectroscopicobservations v sin i's, radial velocities, and the appearance of the CaII H and K emission lines have been determined as well as the H-alphaline. The photometric observations indicate that chromosphericallyactive stars have V - R and V - I color excesses. Such excesses willaffect the surface fluxes determined with the surface brightness-colorrelationship. On the other hand all-sky BVRI photometry appears to be anexcellent way to identify chromospherically active stars. A small groupof moderately rapidly rotating, possibly single G8-K2 giants has beenfound. These stars have very modest chromospheric activity and so arenot FK comae stars. A number of other unusual chromospherically activestars are identified.

Radial velocities of CaII emission stars - Photographic data
