Complementary Ca H&K observations give information also on the cycles of normal solar-like stars, which have significantly smaller, and less easily detectable, spots. In the recent years, high precision space-based observations, for example from the Kepler satellite, have allowed also to study the sunspot-like spot sizes in other stars. Here I review what is known about the properties of the cyclic stellar activity in other stars than our Sun.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2015-11-19T10:32:28.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "stellar activity cycles", "properties", "cyclic stellar activity", "high precision space-based observations", "current photometric datasets" ], "tags": [ "review article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 5, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2015arXiv151106116K" } } }
