Scientific paper

Stellar activity is closely connected to time-variable emission in Ca H & K lines. Since these lines are easily accessible with high sensitivity from ground-based telescopes they provide the means to most easily investigate activity cycles for a large number of stars. The analysis of suchlike profiles using the S-index is a well-known method to monitor stellar activity. Alternatively one can trace the signatures of chromospheric emission lines differentially using sophisticated theoretical line profiles. We have analysed Ca H and K spectra of a sample of G stars obtained with the ESO 3.6m CES system and present results from our analysis of chromospheric activity using PHOENIX models.
