Description
We have observed seven main sequence stars in the Pleiades, with B - V between 0.98 and 1.41 (5100-3900 K), and with a wide range of rotational velocities, in Ca II H and K, Ha and have derived Li abundances. Our results, combined with literature data, indicate that the most chromospherically active stars are rapid rotators, and that at a given effective temperature the Li-rich stars show the highest chromospheric activity. A different surface coverage of active regions could influence the dichotomy observed in the Li abundance distribution.

    Context. High-contrast imaging observations mostly rely on angular differential imaging, a successful technique for detecting point-sources, such as planets. However, in the vicinity of the star (typically below 300 mas), this technique suffers from signal self-subtraction when there is not enough field rotation. Building large libraries of

    Hints of auroral and magnetospheric polarized radio emission from the scallop-shell star 2MASS J05082729–2101444
    Scallop-shell stars, a recently discovered class of young M dwarfs, show complex optical light curves that are characterized by periodic dips as well as other features that are stable over tens to hundreds of rotation cycles. The origin of these features is not well-understood. 2MASS J05082729‑2101444 is a ∼25 Myr old scallop-shell star that was
