| Abstract: |
An important factor in determining if an Earth-like planet can evolve into a habitable world is the radiation coming from its host star. Magnetic activity in the Sun, and low-mass stars in general, manifests itself in the form of high energy and particle emissions. Such emissions may exert an important influence on planetary atmospheres. The long-term evolution of stellar emissions is of special relevance to understand the overall evolution of a (potentially habitable) planet. A key element for the characterization is a reliable age determination. Here we present our results on the determination of the time-evolution of high energy emissions for a sample of late G, K, and M stars. |
