Table 1: Data used for this analysis. Spectra were taken with different high-resolution spectrographs. Detection of differential rotation requires higher resolution in slower rotators. The minimum rotation velocities required for determining the rotation law are given in Col. 4. From the 147 spectra from which differential rotation could be determined, 28 stars show signatures of differential rotation.
