FUMES. IV. Optical and Far-ultraviolet Spectra of a Flare on the M Dwarf GJ 4334

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
On 2017 September 20, we observed GJ 4334, an M5V dwarf rotating with a period of 23.5 days, simultaneously with both the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph aboard Hubble (1160–1710 Å) and the Dual Imaging Spectrograph mounted on the 3.5 m telescope at

Potential Chromospheric Evaporation in the M Dwarf’s Flare Triggered by Einstein Probe Mission

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
Although flares from late-type main-sequence stars have been frequently detected in the multiwavelength, the associated dynamical process has been rarely reported so far.

Mind the Gap. II. The Near-UV Fluxes of M Dwarfs

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
Because of the continuous variations in mass, metallicity, and opacity, dwarf stars are distributed along the main sequence on optical and near-IR color–magnitude diagrams following a smooth polynomial.

The helium chromosphere, coronal holes, and stellar X-rays

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 1975
The solar chromosphere at the limb seen in D3 is an irregular bright band 1000 km thick with a dark band 1000 km thick beneath. The D3 chromosphere disappears in coronal holes. It is shown that the D3 emission, as well as the other He I and He II lines, can be explained quantitatively by photoionization by coronal back-radiation. A Chapman layer with N(

Stellar Library of Differential Emission Measures and Extreme Ultraviolet Spectra: Dwarf Stars Observed by the Extreme Ultraviolet Explorer

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Extreme ultraviolet (EUV; 100–912 Å) photons influence the formation and evolution of planets by ionizing hydrogen and other species, but the EUV radiation of most exoplanet host stars is poorly constrained.

HST Observations of HD 166620 and τ Ceti: First UV Spectra of a Magnetic Grand Minimum Star and the Extent of τ Ceti’s Astrosphere

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present new Hubble Space Telescope (HST) UV spectra of the K2 V star HD 166620, the first star clearly recognized to be in a “magnetic grand minimum” state analogous to the Sun’s “Maunder minimum” in the late 1600s. The stellar H I Ly α surface fluxes
