The magnetic field on the RS Canum Venaticorum star Lambda Andromedae

A program to detect and measure magnetic flux on the surfaces of late-type stars is discussed. A technique is adopted to deconvolve magnetically insensitive lines from similar, magnetically sensitive lines to infer the degree of Zeeman splitting in the latter lines.

description A program to detect and measure magnetic flux on the surfaces of late-type stars is discussed. A technique is adopted to deconvolve magnetically insensitive lines from similar, magnetically sensitive lines to infer the degree of Zeeman splitting in the latter lines. These measurements yield values for the magnetic field strength and filling factor (flux). To illustrate the approach, observations of the RS CVn star Lambda And are presented. At the epoch of observation, 1981 April 26, a field strength of 1290 + or - 320 gauss covering 48 + or - 7 percent of this star's surface is found. This measurement compares with an estimate of coronal magnetic flux in the cooler component of the stellar corona of 1110 gauss with a coronal volume filling factor of 75 percent, based on X-ray data for Lambda And.
