Ultracool Dwarfs Survey. VI. White light superflares observed on an L5 dwarf and flare rates of L dwarfs

Rishi R. Paudel, John E. Gizis, D. J. Mullan +3

Kepler K2 long cadence data are used to study white light flares in a sample of 45 L dwarfs. We identified 11 flares on 9 L dwarfs with equivalent durations of (1.3 - 198) hr and t…

The First Habitable Zone Earth-sized Planet from TESS. I: Validation of the TOI-700 System

Emily A. Gilbert, Thomas Barclay, Joshua E. Schlieder +92

We present the discovery and validation of a three-planet system orbiting the nearby (31.1 pc) M2 dwarf star TOI-700 (TIC 150428135). TOI-700 lies in the TESS continuous viewing zo…

Origin of radio-quiet coronal mass ejections in flare stars

D. J. Mullan, R. R. Paudel

Type II radio bursts are observed in the Sun in association with many coronal mass ejections (CME's. In view of this association, there has been an expectation that, by scaling fro…

K2 Ultracool Dwarfs Survey. V. High superflare rates on rapidly rotating late-M dwarfs

Rishi R. Paudel, John E. Gizis, D. J. Mullan +4

We observed strong superflares (defined as flares with energy in excess of 10^33 erg) on three late-M dwarfs: 2MASS J08315742+2042213 (hereafter 2M0831+2042; M7 V), 2MASS J08371832…

2MASS J10274572+0629104: The very short period young M6 Dwarf Binary System identified in K2 data

Rishi R. Paudel, John E. Gizis, Adam J. Burgasser +1

We report the identification of a very low mass new binary system 2MASS J10274572+0629104, based on Kepler K2 photometry and Gaia DR2 astrometry. The K2 light curve is consistent w…

K2 Ultracool Dwarfs Survey. IV. Monster flares observed on the young brown dwarf CFHT-BD-Tau 4

Rishi R. Paudel, John E. Gizis, D. J. Mullan +4

We present photometric measurements of two superflares observed on a very young brown dwarf CFHT-BD-Tau 4, observed during Campaign 13 of the \textit{Kepler K2} mission. The strong…
