Abstract: The dependence of H-alpha emission strength on rotational period and spectral type in late-type stars is studied using published data. The emission strength shows strong correlation with rotation irrespective of age and spectral type. The chromospheric H-alpha emission strength in late-type dwarfs is a good diagnostic of rotation period in accordance with dynamo theory.
