Our aim is investigating surface inhomogeneities of the young late-type star SAO51891, from photosphere to upper chromosphere, analyzing contemporaneous high-resolution spectra and broad-band photometry. The FOCES@CAHA spectral range is used to determine spectral classification and derive vsini and Vrad. The Li abundance is measured to estimate the age. The BVRIJHKs bands are used to construct the SED. The variations of our BV fluxes and Teff are used to infer the presence of photospheric spots and observe their behavior over time. The chromospheric activity is studied applying the spectral subtraction technique to Halpha, CaII H&K, Heps, and CaII IRT lines. We find SAO51891 to be a young K0-1V star with Li abundance close to the Pleiades upper envelope, confirming its youth (~100 Myr), also inferred from its kinematical membership to the Local Association. We detect no IR excess from SED analysis, and rotational modulation of luminosity, Teff, CaII, and Heps total fluxes. A spot model with two active regions, ~240 K cooler than the surrounding photosphere, fits our light/Teff curves, and reproduces the small-amplitude Vrad variations. The anti-correlation of light curves and chromospheric diagnostics indicates plages spatially associated with spots. The large amplitude observed in the Heps-flux curve suggests that this line is very sensitive to the plage presence. Finally, SAO51891 is a young active star, lacking significant amounts of circumstellar dust or any evidence for low mass companions. The spots turn out to be larger and warmer than those in less active MS stars. The Vrad variation produced by spots has an amplitude comparable with those induced by Jupiter-mass planets orbiting close to the star. SAO51891 is a good example of star where the detection of planets may be hampered by the high activity level.

We present preliminary results on a study based on contemporaneous photometric and spectroscopic observations of the young K0-1V star SAO 51891. We find that SAO 51891, a possible member of the Local Association, shows emission cores in the CaII H&K
and fillings in the Halpha and CaII Infra-Red Triplet (IRT) lines. Moreover, we detect absorption lines of HeI-D3 and LiI and measure a v sini of 19 km/s. A clear rotational modulation of both the light and the photospheric temperature, due to photospheric spots, has been detected. The net Halpha chromospheric emission does not show any detectable variation, while the CaII IRT emission displays a fair modulation.
V383Sco was discovered to be an eclipsing binary at the beginning of the XX century. This system has one of the longest orbital periods known (13.5yr) and was initially classified as a zet_Aur-type variable. It was then forgotten for decades. This
study provides a detailed look at the V383Sco, using new data obtained around the last eclipse in 2007/8. There was a suspicion that this system could be similar to eclipsing systems with extensive dusty disks like EECep and eps_Aur. This and other, alternative hypotheses are considered. The ASAS-3 VI light curves have been used to examine photometric changes. Low-(LRS) and high-res.(HRS) spectra have been used for spectral classification, to analyse line profiles, as well as to determine the reddening, radial velocities (RVs) and distance. The SED was analysed. Using original numerical code, we performed a simplified model of the eclipse, taking into account the pulsations of one of the components. The LRS shows traces of molecular bands, characteristic of an M-type supergiant. The presence of this star in the system is confirmed by SED, by a strong dependence of the eclipse depth on the photometric bands, and by pulsational changes. The presence of a low excitation nebula around the system has been inferred from [OI] 6300A emission. Analysis of the RVs, reddening, and P-L relation for Mira-type stars imply a distance to the V383Sco of 8.4+-0.6 kpc. The distance to the nearby V381Sco is 6.4+-0.8 kpc. The very different and oppositely directed RVs of these systems (89.8 vs -178.8 km/s) seem to be in agreement with a bulge/bar kinematic model of the Galactic centre and inconsistent with purely circular motion. We have found evidence for the presence of a pulsating M-type supergiant in the V383Sco which periodically obscures the much more luminous F0I-type star, causing the deep (possibly total) eclipses which vary in duration and shape.
Magnetic spots on low-mass stars can be traced and characterised using multi-band photometric light curves. Here we analyse an extensive data set for one active star, V1598Cyg, a known variable K dwarf which is either pre-main sequence and/or in a cl
ose binary system. Our light curve contains 2854 photometric data points, mostly in $V$, $R_c$, $I_c$, but also in $U$, $B$ and $Halpha$, with a total baseline of about 4yr, obtained with small telescopes as part of the HOYS project. We find that V1598Cyg is a very fast rotator with a period of 0.8246 days and varying amplitudes in all filters, best explained as a signature of strong magnetic activity and spots. We fit the photometric amplitudes in $V$, $R_c$, $I_c$ and use them to estimate spot properties, using a grid-based method that is also propagating uncertainties. We verify the method on a partial data set with high cadence and all five broad-band filters. The method yields spot temperatures and fractional spot coverage with typical uncertainties of 100K and 3-4%, respectively. V1598Cyg consistently exhibits spots that are a few hundred degrees warmer than the photosphere, most likely indicating that the light curve is dominated by chromospheric plage. The spot activity varies over our observing baseline, with a typical time scale of 0.5-1yr, which we interpret as the typical spot lifetime. Combining our light curve with archival data, we find a six year cycle in the average brightness, that is probably a sign of a magnetic activity cycle.
We report photometry and spectroscopy of the outburst of the young stellar object Gaia19bey. We have established the outburst light curve with archival Gaia G, ATLAS Orange, ZTF r-band and Pan-STARRS rizy-filter photometry, showing an outburst of app
roximately 4 years duration, longer than typical EXors but shorter than FUors. Its pre-outburst SED shows a flat far-infrared spectrum, confirming the early evolutionary state of Gaia19bey and its similarity to other deeply embedded young stars experiencing outbursts. A lower limit to the peak outburst luminosity is approximately 182 L_sun at an assumed distance of 1.4 kpc, the minimum plausible distance. Infrared and optical spectroscopy near maximum light showed an emission line spectrum, including HI lines, strong red CaII emission, other metal emission lines, infrared CO bandhead emission, and a strong infrared continuum. Towards the end of the outburst, the emission lines have all but disappeared and the spectrum has changed into an almost pure continuum spectrum. This indicates a cessation of magnetospheric accretion activity. The near-infrared colors have become redder as Gaia19bey has faded, indicating a cooling of the continuum component. Near the end of the outburst, the only remaining strong emission lines are forbidden shock-excited emission lines. Adaptive optics integral field spectroscopy shows the H_2 1--0 S(1) emission with the morphology of an outflow cavity and the extended emission in the [FeII] line at 1644 nm with the morphology of an edge-on disk. However, we do not detect any large-scale jet from Gaia19bey.
The radio emission from the youngest known Planetary nebula, SAO244567, has been mapped at 1384, 2368, 4800, 8640, 16832 and 18752 MHz by using the Australian Telescope Compact Array (ATCA). These observations constitute the first detailed radio stud
y of this very interesting object, as they allow us to obtain the overall radio morphology of the source and to compute, for the first time, the radio spectrum up to millimetre range. Radio emission is consistent with free-free from a wind-like shell, which is also the region where most of the [OIII] comes from as revealed by HST images. Physical parameters of the radio nebula and of the central star were derived, all consistent with SAO 244567 being a very young Planetary Nebula still embedded in the dusty remnant of the AGB phase. The optically thin radio flux density appear to decrease when compared to data from the literature. Even very appealing, the variability of the radio emission, probably related to the evolution of the central object, needs further investigations.
