Stellar activity depends on multiple parameters one of which is the age of the star. The members of open clusters are good targets to observe the activity at a given age of the stars since their ages are more precisely determined than that of field stars. Choosing multiple clusters, each with different age, gives us insight to the change in activity during the lifetime of stars. With the analysis of these stars we can also refine the parameters of gyrochronology (Barnes 2003), which is a method for estimating the age of low-mass, main sequence stars from their rotation periods.
