Constraining the Mass Loss and the Kinetic Energy of Stellar Coronal Mass Ejections with Solar Far-ultraviolet Flares

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Stellar eruptive events, such as flares and coronal mass ejections (CMEs), can affect planetary habitability by disturbing the stability of their atmospheres.

Constraining Stellar Coronal Mass Ejections through Multi-wavelength Analysis of the Active M Dwarf EQ Peg [PDF]

open access: yesAstrophysical Journal, 2018
Abstract Stellar coronal mass ejections remain experimentally unconstrained, unlike their stellar flare counterparts, which are observed ubiquitously across the electromagnetic spectrum. Low-frequency radio bursts in the form of a type II burst offer the best means of identifying and constraining the rate and properties of stellar CMEs ...

A Machine Learning Approach for Identifying Coronal Mass Ejection–associated Stellar Flares in TESS Observations

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series
Coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are major drivers of stellar space weather and can strongly influence the habitability of exoplanets. However, compared to the frequent occurrence of white-light flares, confirmed stellar CMEs remain extremely rare.

Investigating Possible Stellar Coronal Mass Ejections in M-type Dwarfs Using the CARMENES Data Release 1 Spectra

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
Stellar coronal mass ejections (CMEs) have significant impacts on surrounding exoplanets and stellar evolution. For M-type dwarf stars, hosting close-in habitable zones, frequent and intense stellar CMEs may render their potentially habitable planets ...

Indications of stellar coronal mass ejections through coronal dimmings [PDF]

open access: yesNature Astronomy, 2021
Coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are huge expulsions of magnetized matter from the Sun and stars, traversing space with speeds of millions of kilometers per hour. Solar CMEs can cause severe space weather disturbances and consumer power outages on Earth, whereas stellar CMEs may even pose a hazard to the habitability of exoplanets.

Coronal dimming as a proxy for stellar coronal mass ejections [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2019
AbstractSolar coronal dimmings have been observed extensively in the past two decades and are believed to have close association with coronal mass ejections (CMEs). Recent study found that coronal dimming is the only signature that could differentiate powerful flares that have CMEs from those that do not.

Detection of a High-velocity Prominence Eruption Leading to a CME Associated with a Superflare on the RS CVn-type Star V1355 Orionis

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Stellar coronal mass ejections (CMEs) have recently received much attention for their impacts on exoplanets and stellar evolution. Detecting prominence eruptions, the initial phase of CMEs, as the blueshifted excess component of Balmer lines is a ...

Hunting for Stellar Coronal Mass Ejections [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2016
AbstractCoronal mass ejections (CMEs) are explosive events that occur basically daily on the Sun. It is thought that these events play a crucial role in the angular momentum and mass loss of late-type stars, and also shape the environment in which planets form and live.

Stellar Winds, Dead Zones, and Coronal Mass Ejections [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2000
Axisymmetric stellar wind solutions are presented, obtained by numerically solving the ideal magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) equations. Stationary solutions are critically analysed using the knowledge of the flux functions. These flux functions enter in the general variational principle governing all axisymmetric stationary ideal MHD equilibria.

Where are the stellar coronal mass ejections?

open access: yes, 2022
Stellar flares and coronal mass ejections (CMEs) can have serious effects on their surroundings: they can erode or completely destroy atmospheres of orbiting planets over time and also have high importance in stellar evolution. Most of the stellar CME detections in the literature are single events found serendipitously sparse for statistical ...
