Faint optical flares from the dwarf M star Gliese 812 (Ross 193).
Abstract
The authors report on a search for flaring on the Balmer emission line star, Gliese 812. Three flares were detected in a total monitoring time of 11.66 h. The time-averaged flare energy in the Johnson U-band is substantially smaller than in other stars of similar absolute U magnitude, such as AD Leo, EQ Peg and EV Lac.
