Abstract: The emission from the gas behind the front of a stationary shock wave is calculated for the conditions in the atmospheres of red dwarf stars for velocities u0 from 30 to 100 km/s. Energy exchange… read more here.

DOI: 10.1017/s1473550417000118
Abstract: Abstract M-dwarf stars are more abundant than G-dwarf stars, so our position as observers on a planet orbiting a G-dwarf raises questions about the suitability of other stellar types for supporting life. If we consider… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/mnras/stz1394
Abstract: We investigate the evolution of isolated, zero and finite temperature, massive, uniformly rotating and highly magnetized white dwarf stars under angular momentum loss driven by magnetic dipole braking. We consider the structure and thermal evolution… read more here.

DOI: 10.1126/science.abl7164
Abstract: Exoplanets smaller than Neptune are common around red dwarf stars (M dwarfs), with those that transit their host star constituting the bulk of known temperate worlds amenable for atmospheric characterization. We analyze the masses and… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fspas.2019.00076
Abstract: Recent fully non-adiabatic theoretical studies of M dwarf models show that they have the potential to excite radial\textbf{,} and low-order, low-degree non-radial modes, as well as solar-like oscillations, due to models being completely convective or… read more here.
