Description
We present the results from a spectroscopic CaII H&K survey of 1058 late-type stars selected from a color-limited subsample of the Hipparcos (Cat. <I/239>) catalog. Out of these 1058 stars, 371 stars were found to show significant H&K emission, most of them previously unknown; 23% with strong emission, 36% with moderate emission, and 41% with weak emission. These spectra are used to determine absolute H&K emission-line fluxes, radial velocities, and equivalent widths of the luminosity-sensitive Sr II line at 4077{AA}. Red-wavelength spectroscopic and Stroemgren y photometric follow-up observations of the 371 stars with H&K emission are used to additionally determine the absolute H{alpha}-core flux, the lithium abundance from the Li I 6708{AA} equivalent width, the rotational velocity vsini, the radial velocity, and the light variations and its periodicity.
