VLA Observations of Stellar Flares: A 3-Hour Flare of the RS CVN Star λ Andromedae and A 5-Minute Flare of the BP STAR HR 5942
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 27 September 2017
Abstract
We describe high-sensitivity VLA observations of rapidly varying radio emission (‘flares’) from two stars of very different types, one of which (λ And) is a Long-Period RS CVn system, and the other (HR 5942) is a magnetic Bp star. In both cases, however, the physical mechanism producing the radio emission is most likely to be gyrosynchrotron radiation from mildly relativistic, power-law electrons.
