The Impact of Stellar Flares on the Atmospheric Escape of Exoplanets Orbiting M Stars. I. Insights from the AU Mic System
The X-ray and extreme ultraviolet (XUV) emission from M stars can drive the atmospheric escape on planets orbiting them. M stars are also known for their frequent emission of stellar flares, which will increase the high-energy flux received by their orbiting planets. To understand how stellar flares...
