X-ray flares in Orion young stars. I. Flare characteristics [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2008
Pre-main sequence (PMS) stars are known to produce powerful X-ray flares which resemble magnetic reconnection solar flares scaled by factors up to 10^4.

Magnetic Activity of Different Types of Variable Stars Observed by TESS Mission

open access: yesUniverse, 2023
The investigation of the magnetic activity of different types of variable stars holds significant implications for our understanding of the physical processes and evolution of stars.

Spectral Observations of Flare Stars [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1990
Spectral observations of 6 flare stars in the Pleiades cluster are carried out which occupy different positions on the Hertzsprung-Russell diagram relative to the main sequence: above and below it. The spectral indices which are sensible to luminosity or temperature of the star photosphere are determined.

Flare Stars Database [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1994
The important role of flare stars (UV Ceti type variables) in astrophysics is due to the fact that the flare activity is not only typical for red stars with small masses but is a necessary stage during their evolution.

New EUV Selected Flare Stars [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Astronomical Union Colloquium, 1995
The ROSAT Wide Field Camera all-sky EUV survey of 1990-91 identified over 200 active late-type stars (Pounds et al. 1993). Most of these were not known to be active prior to the survey and follow-up optical spectroscopy has been successful in selecting the most active dMe stars.

The Kepler Catalog of Stellar Flares [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
A homogeneous search for stellar flares has been performed using every available Kepler light curve. An iterative light curve de-trending approach was used to filter out both astrophysical and systematic variability to detect flares.

Flare Stars Database: Present Status [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Astronomical Union Colloquium, 1995
AbstractAn updated data collection for UV Cet type stars and their registered flare events in stellar aggregates and in the solar neighbourhood during more than 9580 hours observing time is described. The Flare Stars Database (FSDB) presently includes 3127 entries for 1622 stars.

Oscillations in stellar superflares [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Two different mechanisms may act to induce quasi-periodic pulsations (QPP) in whole-disk observations of stellar flares. One mechanism may be magneto-hydromagnetic (MHD) forces and other processes acting on flare loops as seen in the Sun.

Tidal Disruption Events from Eccentric Orbits and Lessons Learned from the Noteworthy ASASSN-14ko

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Stars grazing supermassive black holes (SMBHs) on bound orbits may survive tidal disruption, causing periodic flares. Inspired by the recent discovery of the periodic nuclear transient ASASSN-14ko, a promising candidate for a repeating tidal disruption ...

An “A star” on an M star during a flare within a flare [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2010
AbstractM dwarfs produce explosive flare emission in the near-UV and optical continuum, and the mechanism responsible for this phenomenon is not well-understood. We present a near-UV/optical flare spectrum from the rise phase of a secondary flare, which occurred during the decay of a much larger flare.
