Title: Using TESS To Characterize Flares On Low-Mass Stars

PI: Llama, Joe - Lowell Observatory

Type: SMALL

Summary: The atmospheres of planets evolve under the influence of their parent star. For planets orbiting within the habitable zone of low-mass stars, these effects can be magnified due to their proximity to the host star. We propose TESS two-minute light curves of the targets that will be observed by the NASA-funded Star-Planet Research CubeSat (SPARCS) to resolve the short-lived flares (typical lifetimes of a few hours), quantify the optical stellar rotational variability, and determine the flare-frequency distribution. There are 7 SPARCS target stars that will be observed by TESS in Cycle 2. The TESS and SPARCS data will provide multi-wavelength flare frequency distributions, rotational modulation, and total flare energies that will enable new scaling laws between the optical and UV.
