THE ACTIVITY AND VARIABILITY OF THE SUN AND SUN-LIKE STARS. II. CONTEMPORANEOUS PHOTOMETRY AND SPECTROSCOPY OF BRIGHT SOLAR ANALOGS

We present 14 years of contemporaneous photometric and spectroscopic observations of 28 solar analog stars, taken with the Tennessee State University Automatic Photometric Telescopes at Fairborn Observatory and the Solar-Stellar Spectrograph at Lowell Observatory. These are the best observed and mos...
