K2 is ideally suited to monitor star clusters
Large field of view
High precision
Long time baseline
Continuous time series
Bright, nearby targets – great for follow-up

K2 has a number of photometric pipelines
Official K2 pipeline: Light curves for Campaigns 3, 4, 5 with PDC detrending
A. Vanderburg pipeline: Light curves for Campaigns 0-4 with SFF detrending
Other approaches- C. Huang et al. (2015); Libralato et al. (2015); S. Aigrain in prep.
My pipeline: operates on both regular and superstamp images

K2 reveals spot evolution and differential rotation
Can be difficult to differentiate the two phenomena (Aigrain et al. 2015)
~20-30% of intermediate age stars show multiple light curve frequencies
Spot evolution appears on ~week timescales, if at all.
Currently comparing long-term spot behavior on the pre main sequence vs. in older clusters. Mass dependence unclear.

Summary
K2 is an excellent platform for photometric monitoring of young to intermediate age star clusters.
The resulting time series are being used to contrain stellar parameters, understand angular momentum evolution, as well as magnetic spot properties.
More cluster data to come!
By the end of the mission, we may have a significant enough sample to constraint planet occurrence rates at young ages.
