Confirmation of the electron cyclotron maser instability as the dominant source of radio emission from very low mass stars and brown dwarfs
(IOP Publishing, 2008-09-01)We report on radio observations of the M8.5 dwarf LSR J1835+3259 and the L3.5 dwarf 2MASS J00361617+ 1821104, which provide the strongest evidence to date that the electron cyclotron maser instability is the dominant ... -
Magnetospherically driven optical and radio aurorae at the end of the stellar main sequence
(Springer Nature, 2015-07-30)Aurorae are detected from all the magnetized planets in our Solar System, including Earth(1). They are powered by magnetospheric current systems that lead to the precipitation of energetic electrons into the high-latitude ...
