The Curious Case of Dark Faculae on M Dwarf Stars
Alexander~I. ~Shapiro, Sara~Seager, Sami~K. ~Solanki +6
The study of exoplanet atmospheres has brought a renewed interest in stellar astrophysics. Specifically, stellar magnetic activity from the host star contaminates exoplanet atmosph…
Overestimated Pressure Broadening Misleads Model Spectra in Cool M Dwarf Stars
Ana Glidden, Veronika Witzke, Alexander I. Shapiro +1
Available one-dimensional stellar models fail to reproduce the observed spectrum of the ultracool M dwarf TRAPPIST-1. In particular, current models predict strong iron hydride (FeH…
Molecular hydrogen controls the temperatures of flares on TRAPPIST-1
Alexander I. Shapiro Nadiia Kostogryz Sara Seager Veronika Witzke Julien de Wit Valeriy Vasilyev Astrid M. Veronig Robert Cameron Hardi Peter Sami K. Solanki
Early JWST observations of TRAPPIST-1 have revealed an unexpected puzzle: energetic white-light flares ( erg) reach temperatures of only 3500--4000\,K, ne…
