In order to estimate the rotation period of stars and to understand the associated uncertainties resulting, for example, from discontinuities in the curves and (or) low signal-to-noise ratio, we have compared three different methods for light curves treatment. These methods were applied to many light curves with different characteristics. First, a Visual Analysis was undertaken for each light curve, giving a general perspective on the different phenomena reflected in the curves. The results obtained by this method regarding the rotation period of the star, the presence of spots, or the star nature (binary system or other) were then compared with those obtained by two accurate methods: the CLEANest method, based on the DCDFT (Date Compensated Discrete Fourier Transform), and the Wavelet method, based on the Wavelet Transform. Our results show that all three methods have similar levels of accuracy and can complement each other. Nevertheless, the Wavelet method gives more information about the star, from the wavelet map, showing the variations of frequencies over time in the signal. Finally, we discuss the limitations of these methods, the efficiency to give us informations about the star and the development of tools to integrate different methods into a single analysis / Um dos principais objetivos do Grupo do CoRoT de Natal ? a determina??o do per?odo de rota??o para milhares de estrelas, um par?metro fundamental para o estudo da hist?ria evolutiva estelar. Para estimar o per?odo de rota??o das estrelas e compreender as incertezas associadas resultantes, por exemplo, das descontinuidades nas curvas e (ou) das baixas raz?es sinal-ru?do, comparamos tr?s diferentes m?todos para o tratamento das curvas de luz nesta disserta??o. Estes m?todos foram aplicados na an?lise de curvas de luz com diferentes caracter?sticas. Primeiro, uma An?lise Visual foi realizada para cada curva de luz, dando uma perspectiva geral sobre os diferentes fen?menos destacados nas curvas. Os resultados obtidos por este m?todo em rela??o ao per?odo de rota??o da estrela, a presen?a de manchas, ou a natureza da estrela (sistema bin?rio ou outro) foram ent?o comparados com aqueles obtidos por outros dois m?todos mais precisos: o m?todo CLEANest, com base na DCDFT (Date Compensated Discrete Fourier Transform), e o m?todo Wavelet, com base na Transformada Wavelet. Nossos resultados mostram que os tr?s m?todos apresentam n?veis similares de precis?o e cada um pode complementar o outro. No entanto, o m?todo Wavelet pode fornecer informa??es adicionais sobre a estrela estudada, a partir do mapa wavelet, mostrando as varia??es de freq??ncias no sinal ao longo do tempo. Finalmente, discutimos as limita??es destes m?todos, os n?veis de efici?ncia em fornecer informa??es sobre a estrela, bem como o poss?vel desenvolvimento de ferramentas para integrar m?todos diferentes em uma ?nica an?lise

It was found with the dynamics of sunspots that the Sun has a rotation period of twenty-seven days around your axis. With the help of Project Sun-As-A-Star that solar spectra obtained for more than thirty years we observed oscillations of both the depth of the spectral line and its equivalent width, and analysis of the return information about the characteristics of solar magnetism. It also aims to find patterns of solar magnetic activity cycle and the average period of rotation of the Sun will indicate the spectral lines that are sensitive to magnetic activity and which are not. Sensitive lines how Ti II 5381.0 ? stands as the best indicator of the solar rotation period and also shows different periods of rotation cycles of minimum and maximum magnetic activity. It is the first time we observe clearly distinct rotation periods in the different cycles. The analysis also shows that Ca II 8542.1 ? and HI 6562.0 ? indicate the cycle of magnetic activity of eleven years. Some spectral lines no indicated connection with solar activity, this result can help us search for programs planets using spectroscopic models. Data analysis was performed using the Lomb-Scargle method that makes the time series analysis for unequally spaced data. Observe different rotation periods in the cycles of magnetic activity accounts for a discussion has been debated for many decades. We verified that spectroscopy can also specify the period of stellar rotation, thus being able to generalize the method to other stars / O estudo das manchas solares de forma sistem?tica contribuiu para um melhor entendimento de fen?menos magn?ticos do Sol, tal como a sua atividade. Constatou-se com a din?mica das manchas solares que o Sol tem um per?odo de rota??o de vinte e sete dias em torno de seu eixo. Com o aux?lio do projeto Sun-As-A-Star que obteve espectros solares por mais de trinta anos pudemos verificar oscila??es tanto da profundidade da linha espectral quanto de sua largura equivalente, e a an?lise destas nos retornam informa??es sobre caracter?sticas do magnetismo solar. Objetiva-se tamb?m encontrar padr?es do ciclo de atividade magn?tica solar e do per?odo de rota??o m?dio do Sol. Indicaremos as linhas espectrais que s?o sens?veis a atividade magn?tica e as que n?o s?o. Das linhas sens?veis Ti II 5381.0 ? se sobressai como melhor indicador do per?odo de rota??o solar e tamb?m aponta per?odos de rota??o diferentes nos ciclos de m?nima e m?xima atividade magn?tica. ? a primeira vez que se observa com clareza per?odos de rota??o distintos nos diferentes ciclos. A an?lise tamb?m mostra que Ca II 8542.1 ? e H I 6562.0 ? apontam o ciclo de atividade magn?tica de onze anos do Sol. Diversas linhas n?o apresentaram liga??o com a atividade solar, este resultado pode ajudar nos programas de busca por planetas que utilizam modelos espectrosc?picos. A an?lise dos dados foi feita utilizando o m?todo Lomb-Scargle que faz a an?lise de s?ries temporais para dados n?o igualmente espa?ados. Observar diferentes per?odos de rota??o nos ciclos de atividade magn?tica esclarece uma discuss?o j? debatida h? muitas d?cadas. Verificamos que a espectroscopia tamb?m pode indicar o per?odo de rota??o estelar, podendo assim, generalizar o m?todo para outras estrelas

Estes objetos desempenham um papel fundamental no ?mbito da astrof?sica moderna, principalmente, na investiga??o da nossa estrela como um objeto comum. Dentre os diversos par?metros f?sicos observ?veis, a atividade magn?tica e cromosf?rica - para um conjunto de estrelas muito similares ao Sol (an?logas e g?meas) - s?o essenciais para compreendermos a evolu??o din?mica da atividade estelar em escalas de tempo da ordem de v?rios bilh?es de anos, isto ? tempo de vida de uma estrela do tipo-solar sobre a sequ?ncia principal. Neste trabalho, entre outros aspectos, investigaremos as rela??es existentes entre o per?odo de rota??o, abund?ncia de l?tio, atividade magn?tica e cromosf?rica, massa e idades destes grupos de estrelas. Analisaremos ainda as determina??es das idades de acordo com a t?cnica da girocronologia. O objetivo principal do nosso trabalho ? investigar a lei de decaimento de cada um dos destes par?metros com base em uma ampla amostra de estrelas classificadas como an?logas e g?meas solares. Nossos resultados deram origem a quatro publica??es em revistas indexadas, dos quais dois j? se encontram em modo ?impress?. Estes resultados mostram que as leis de evolu??o (decaimento da abund?ncia de l?tio, da rota??o e do campo magn?tico) s?o fortemente dependentes do tipo-estelar, mostrando-se mais nitidez para as estrelas an?logas e g?meas. / The interest in studying the objects similar to the Sun, stars labeled as solar-type stars, analogs and solar twins, brings in its essence an attempt to end out another reference star and, furthermore, provides an investigation of evolutionary dynamic of our star as a function of various parameters. For this, we used three distinct samples of observable data, 170 solar-type stars from BCool catalog and observed with spectropolarimeters ESPaDOnS e NARVAL, 88 solar-twin stars of HARPS surveys, and 20 solar-analog stars from Kepler. From these data, we have investigated mainly the correlation among the rotation period, lithium abundance and stellar age. For the BCool stars and solar-twin from HARPS, we have used the rotation period determined through of chromospheric activity, in the case of Kepler solar analogs, the rotation period it is derived from photometric modulation. The lithium abundance for most of the solar-type and solar-twin stars have been collected from literature, while for the solar analogs, the lithium abundance were determined in the LTE regime using Kurucz atmospheric models and the MOOG code. For stellar age, we have used the gyrochronology method, which was calibrated using the Sun and a selection of open clusters, to redetermine them and comparing them with those derived from standard isochronal. Our results indicate that exist a decay law for the rotation period as a function of lithium abundance. This correlation becomes more clear for the solar-analog and solartwin stars, even the rotation period being determined through distinct mechanisms for each case. For stellar ages, measured from standard isochronal and gyrochronology, we realized that they diverge considerably when the stars are older than the Sun. This result has also been investigated by van Saders et al. (2016) and reect our limitation about thestellar evolution and mixing mechanisms. Our work has resulted in five publications in indexed journals, two already in print format, one recently submitted and other in final stage of conclusion.
