Description
We present results of our projected rotational velocities (V sin i) measurements of F, G and K giants obtained from the cross-correlation function (CCF) constructed from high signal to noise spectra. We also present the calibration of the HET/HRS cross-correlation function to determine accurate projected rotational velocities V sin i for slowly-rotating F-K giants.
