Dependence of R_var on the inclination. Each panel represents different realisations of the BMR emergence for a given rotation rate. The grey histograms are drawn from the McQ14 stars and the black histograms from the S21 stars, with the limitations of [23/X, 27/X] days for a given rotation rate X in units of the solar rotation (i.e. for X=2, meaning stars with 2Ω_⊙, the stars have rotation periods between [11.5,13.5] days).
