- Nature
- 25 August 2016
At a distance of 1.295 parsecs, the red dwarf Proxima Centauri (α Centauri C, GL 551, HIP 70890 or simply Proxima) is the Sun’s closest stellar neighbour and one of the best-studied low-mass stars.… Expand
IDENTIFYING THE YOUNG LOW-MASS STARS WITHIN 25 pc. II. DISTANCES, KINEMATICS, AND GROUP MEMBERSHIP*
- E. Shkolnik, G. Anglada-Escudé, +5 authors M. Tamura
- Physics
- 20 July 2012
We have conducted a kinematic study of 165 young M dwarfs with ages of 300?Myr. Our sample is composed of stars and brown dwarfs with spectral types ranging from K7 to L0, detected by ROSAT and with… Expand
Absolute Properties of the Low-Mass Eclipsing Binary CM Draconis
- J. Morales, I. Ribas, +12 authors R. Mathieu
- Physics
- 8 October 2008
Spectroscopic and eclipsing binary systems offer the best means for determining accurate physical properties of stars, including their masses and radii. The data available for low-mass stars have… Expand
The habitability of Proxima Centauri b. I. Irradiation, rotation and volatile inventory from formation to the present
- I. Ribas, É. Bolmont, +9 authors G. Anglada-Escudé
- Physics
- 24 August 2016
Proxima b is a planet with a minimum mass of 1.3 MEarth orbiting within the habitable zone (HZ) of Proxima Centauri, a very low-mass, active star and the Sun's closest neighbor. Here we investigate a… Expand
Distance and Kinematics of the TW Hydrae Association from Parallaxes
- A. Weinberger, G. Anglada-Escudé, A. Boss
- Physics
- 9 November 2012
From common proper motion and signatures of youth, researchers have identified about 30 members of a putative TW Hydrae Association. Only four of these had parallactic distances from Hipparcos. We… Expand
A planetary system around the nearby M dwarf GJ 667C with at least one super-earth in its habitable zone
- G. Anglada-Escudé, P. Arriagada, +14 authors J. Jenkins
- Physics
- 2 February 2012
We re-analyze 4 years of HARPS spectra of the nearby M1.5 dwarf GJ 667C available through the European Southern Observatory public archive. The new radial velocity (RV) measurements were obtained… Expand
Trigonometric Parallaxes and Proper Motions of 134 Southern Late M, L, and T Dwarfs from the Carnegie Astrometric Planet Search Program
- A. Weinberger, A. Boss, S. Keiser, G. Anglada-Escudé, I. Thompson, G. Burley
- Physics
- 19 April 2016
We report trigonometric parallaxes for 134 low mass stars and brown dwarfs, of which 38 have no previously published measurement and 79 more have improved uncertainties. Our survey targeted nearby… Expand
The habitability of Proxima Centauri b II. Possible climates and Observability
