The rotation and Galactic kinematics of mid M dwarfs in the Solar Neighborhood

Elisabeth R. Newton, Jonathan Irwin, David Charbonneau +3

Rotation is a directly-observable stellar property, and drives magnetic field generation and activity through a magnetic dynamo. Main sequence stars with masses below approximately…

Motion Verified Red Stars (MoVeRS): A Catalog of Proper Motion Selected Low-mass Stars from WISE, SDSS, and 2MASS

Christopher A. Theissen, Andrew A. West, Saurav Dhital

We present a photometric catalog of 8,735,004 proper motion selected low-mass stars (KML-spectral types) within the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) footprint, from the combined SDS…

A Catalog of GALEX Ultraviolet Emission from Spectroscopically Confirmed M Dwarfs

David O. Jones, Andrew A. West

We present a catalog of GALEX Near-UV (NUV) and Far-UV (FUV) photometry for the Palomar/MSU and SDSS DR7 spectroscopic M dwarf catalogs. The catalog contains NUV measurements match…

Runaway M Dwarf Candidates from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey

Andrej Favia, Andrew A. West, Christopher A. Theissen

We present a sample of 20 runaway M dwarf candidates (RdMs) within 1 kpc of the Sun whose Galactocentric velocities exceed 400 km s. The candidates were selected from the SD…

An Activity-Rotation Relationship and Kinematic Analysis of Nearby Mid-to-Late-type M Dwarfs

Andrew A. West, Kolby L. Weisenburger, Jonathan Irwin +4

Using spectroscopic observations and photometric light curves of 238 nearby M dwarfs from the MEarth exoplanet transit survey, we examine the relationships between magnetic activit…

Linking Stellar Coronal Activity and Rotation at 500 Myr: A Deep Chandra Observation of M37

Alejandro Núñez, Marcel A. Agüeros, Kevin R. Covey +9

Empirical calibrations of the stellar age-rotation-activity relation (ARAR) rely on observations of the co-eval populations of stars in open clusters. We used the Chandra X-ray Obs…
