We present results from a Chandra ACIS observation of the M8 dwarf star VB 10, a star near the hydrogen-burning mass limit. Until now, VB 10 has only been detected to flare at X-ray wavelengths. We can now report that nonflare, “quiescent,” X-ray emission has been detected with a luminosity, L<SUB>X</SUB>=(2.4+/-0.05)×10<SUP>25</SUP> ergs s<SUP>-1</SUP> and log(L<SUB>X</SUB>/L<SUB>bol</SUB>)=-4.9. This is consistent with the previous ROSAT nondetections of quiescent emission from VB 10. We discuss the implications of this discovery for the nature of coronae in ultracool dwarfs.
CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic
(which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments.
It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions.
The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager
like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
