Description
We present high-dispersion (R~16000) optical (3900-8700{AA}) spectra of 390 stars obtained with the Palomar 60inch telescope. The majority of stars observed are part of the Spitzer Legacy Science Program "The Formation and Evolution of Planetary Systems." Through detailed analysis we determine stellar properties for this sample, including radial and rotational velocities, LiI{lambda}6708 and H{alpha} equivalent widths, the chromospheric activity index R'_HK_, and temperature- and gravity-sensitive line ratios. Several spectroscopic binaries are also identified. From our tabulations, we illustrate basic age- and rotation-related correlations among measured indices. One novel result is that CaII chromospheric emission appears to saturate at vsini values above ~30km/s, similar to the well-established saturation of X-rays that originate in the spatially separate coronal region.
