Scientific paper

The sun's 22-year magnetic cycle is a well-documented phenomenon. Less widely studied are the magnetic cycles of stars other than the sun. Light curves of stars exhibiting short-term (periods on the order of days) variability were obtained from the ASAS archive. In several examples, the amplitude of the short-term variation appears to vary with a period of several years. We investigate the possibility that this long-term periodic amplitude variation is tied to variations in star-spot activity caused by the stars’ magnetic cycles. We use simple computer models approximating star-spot activity to try to reproduce the behavior shown by these stars.
