Spectroscopic observations of red dwarfs. III. Observations of red stars in the solar neighborhood

  • Published:
Astrophysics Aims and scope

Abstract

This list is based on 20 stars in the solar neighborhood for which there are 52 spectra. Twelve of them are known as UV Ceti flare stars. The others behave like flare stars, but are not known to be such. Among the 20 there are many binary and triple flare stars. They all belong to the disk population of the Galaxy. Red dwarfs comprise one of the numerous populations of the system. Flare stars either continue to flare or have ceased flare activity. Three diagrams are given that show satisfactory agreement with the expected ones. A cluster analysis is carried out, which is in agreement with the original proposition and confirms the foregoing.
