The Young Solar Analogs Project
Abstract
The Young Solar Analogs Project has been monitoring a set of 31 young (0.3 - 1.5 Gyr) solar-type stars (F8 -- K2) spectroscopically since 2007 and photometrically since 2012. The goal is to better understand the early sun and the challenges it presented to the development of life on Earth. This paper reviews the progress of the project, and discusses some of the early results, including the development and evaluation of a G-band index.
