Descripción
Stars similar to the Sun, known as solar analogues, provide an excellent
opportunity to study the preceding and following evolutionary phases of
our host star. The unprecedented quality of photometric data collected
by the Kepler NASA mission allows us to characterise solar-like stars
through asteroseismology and study diagnostics of stellar evolution,
such as variation of magnetic activity, rotation and the surface lithium
abundance. In this project, presented in a series of papers by Salabert
et al (2016ab) and Beck et al. (2016ab), we investigate the link between
stellar activity, rotation, lithium abundance and oscillations in a
group of 18 solar-analogue stars through space photometry, obtained with
the NASA Kepler space telescope and from currently 50+ hours of
ground-based, high-resolution spectroscopy with the Hermes instrument.
In these proceedings, we first discuss the selection of the stars in the
sample, observations and calibrations and then summarise the main
results of the project. By investigating the chromospheric and
photospheric activity of the solar analogues in this sample, it was
shown that for a large fraction of these stars the measured activity
levels are compatible to levels of the 11-year solar activity cycle 23.
A clear correlation between the lithium abundance and surface rotation
was found for rotation periods shorter than the solar value. Comparing
the lithium abundance measured in the solar analogues to evolutionary
models with the Toulouse-Geneva Evolutionary Code (TGEC), we found that
the solar models calibrated to the Sun also correctly describe the set
of solar/stellar analogs showing that they share the same internal
mixing physics. Finally, the star KIC3241581 and KIC10644353 are
discussed in more detail.
