Using Magnetic Activity and Galactic Dynamics to Constrain the Ages of M Dwarfs

Andrew A. West, Suzanne L. Hawley, John J. Bochanski +2

We present a study of the dynamics and magnetic activity of M dwarfs using the largest spectroscopic sample of low-mass stars ever assembled. The age at which strong surface magnet…

Chi Values for Blue Emission Lines in M Dwarfs

Andrew A. West, Suzanne L. Hawley

We compute chi values for blue emission lines in active M dwarfs. Using flux-calibrated spectra from nearby M dwarfs and spectral M dwarf templates from SDSS, we derive analytic re…

Tracers of Chromospheric Structure I: Observations of Ca II K and H alpha in M Dwarfs

Lucianne M. Walkowicz, Suzanne L. Hawley

We report on our observing program to capture simultaneous spectra of Ca II and Balmer lines in a sample of nearby M3 dwarfs. Our goal is to investigate the chromospheric temperatu…

Our Nearest 15 Million Neighbors: The Field Low-Mass Stellar Luminosity and Mass Functions

John J. Bochanski, Suzanne L. Hawley, I. Neill Reid +4

We report on a new measurement of the luminosity function (LF) and mass function (MF) of field low-mass dwarfs using Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) photometry. The final catalog i…

The Properties of Long-Period Variables in the Large Magellanic Cloud from MACHO

Oliver J. Fraser, Suzanne L. Hawley, Kem H. Cook

We present a new analysis of the long-period variables in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) from the MACHO Variable Star Catalog. Three-quarters of our sample of evolved, variable s…
