Late-type evolved stars are well known for the decrease with age of their rotation and lithium abundance. However, the root cause of this property as well as the relationship between rotation and lithium content in these stars are not yet completely established. In the present work, we study the link between rotation and lithium abundances in solar-type giant stars on the basis of a large sample of 380 stars of spectral type F, G and K.

The difficulties of measuring magnetic fields in late-type stars other than the sun are well known, as one is reminded by other contributions to these Proceedings. This Symposium nevertheless comes at a very opportune time, as we are now at the point where we can begin to explore the relationship of stellar magnetism to flare activity and quiescent cool star chromospheres, transition regions (TRs), and coronae.

We have been monitoring the CaII H and K emission in late-type giant stars using the Mt Wilson 60-inch telescope. It is a continuation of work that Olin Wilson began almost 20 years ago. As a result not only have starspot cycles been detected (equivalent to the solar sunspot cycle), but rotation periods have now been measured.

Mass loss generated by radiatively damped acoustic waves is investigated. We find that a persistent wave energy flux leads to extended chromospheres. Mass loss is quite likely produced if the wave field retains a transient character and if large wave periods are used.
