High-time-cadence Spectroscopy and Photometry of Stellar Flares on M dwarf YZ Canis Minoris with the Seimei Telescope and TESS. I. Discovery of Rapid and Short-duration Prominence Eruptions

The Astrophysical Journal
M dwarfs show frequent flares and associated coronal mass ejections (CMEs) may significantly impact close-in habitable planets. M dwarf flares sometimes show blue/red asymmetries in the H α line profile, suggesting prominence eruptions as an early stage ...

Occurrence rate of stellar Type II radio bursts from a 100 star-year search for coronal mass ejections

Astronomy & Astrophysics
Coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are major drivers of space weather in the Solar System, but their occurrence rate on other stars is unknown. A characteristic (deca-)metric radio burst with a time-frequency drift, known as a Type II radio burst, is a key observational signature of CMEs. We searched a total of 107 years of stellar data

Hunting for stellar coronal mass ejections

Solar flares are often accompanied by filament/prominence eruptions, sometimes leading to coronal mass ejections (CMEs). By analogy, we expect that stellar flares are also associated with stellar CMEs whose properties are essential to know the impact on ...

Exo–IPM Scattering as a Hidden Gatekeeper of Narrowband Technosignatures

The Astrophysical Journal
Narrowband radio technosignatures can be significantly modulated by the host star’s exoplanetary interplanetary medium (Exo-IPM), where turbulence in stellar winds and coronal mass ejections (CMEs) imprint spectral broadening.

Universal Constants in Self-organized Criticality Systems

The Astrophysical Journal
The occurrence frequency distributions of fluxes ( F ) and fluences or energies ( E ) observed in the majority (in 18 out of 23 cases) of astrophysical phenomena are found to be consistent with the predictions of the fractal-diffusive self-organized ...

First Detection of an Ultracool Dwarf at 340 MHz: VLITE Observations of EI Cancri AB

The Astronomical Journal
Magnetically driven phenomena such as flaring events and aurorae lead ultracool dwarfs (UCDs) to emit at radio frequencies. Despite decades of scrutiny, a comprehensive physical understanding of their radio emission at different frequencies remains ...

Solar Particle Acceleration

Astronomy
High-energy particles may be accelerated widely in stellar coronae; probably by the same processes we find in the Sun. Here, we have learned of two physical mechanisms that dominate the acceleration of solar energetic particles (SEPs).

Do Young Suns Produce Frequent, Massive CMEs? Results from Five-year Dedicated Optical Observations of EK Draconis and V889 Hercules

The Astrophysical Journal
We report results from a five-year (132-night) dedicated observational campaign targeting two nearby young solar-type stars, EK Draconis (∼50–125 Myr age) and V889 Hercules (∼30 Myr age), using the 3.8 m Seimei Telescope and Transiting Exoplanet Survey ...

Apache Point Observatory (APO)/SMARTS Flare Star Campaign Observations. I. Blue Wing Asymmetries in Chromospheric Lines during Mid-M-Dwarf Flares from Simultaneous Spectroscopic and Photometric Observation Data

The Astrophysical Journal
We conducted the time-resolved simultaneous optical spectroscopic and photometric observations of mid-M-dwarf flare stars YZ CMi, EV Lac, and AD Leo. Spectroscopic observations were obtained using Apache Point Observatory 3.5 m and Small and Moderate ...
