Do Faculae Affect Autocorrelation Rotation Periods in Sun-like Stars?

Rotational periods derived from autocorrelation function (ACF) techniques on stars photometrically similar to the Sun in Kepler data have proven difficult to reliably determine. We investigate various instrumental and astrophysical factors affecting the accuracy of these measurements, including the...
