RV, BIS SPAN, and FWHM variations and best fit (black continuous line) of the activity-induced signal observed on α Cen B. The best-fitted solution corresponds to a plage of size 2.4% that can be found at a latitude of 44 deg. The star rotates in 36.65 days and is seen with an inclination of 22 deg.
