A Search for Maunder Minimum States in a Sample of Solar-Type Stars


Francis Fekel, Tennessee State University

We have obtained precise photometry and high-dispersion spectroscopy
of nearly 350  single, late-F to early-K dwarfs and some subgiants.
These solar-type field stars range in age from about 200  million to
10  billion years.  We examine parameter correlations to search for
stars in unusual low activity states in an attempt to identify
possible Maunder Minimum candidates.
