High resolution NIR RVs of K2-M4 low-mass stars
Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)
We present the results of a precise near-infrared (NIR) radial velocity (RV) survey of 32 low-mass stars with spectral types K2-M4 using CSHELL at the NASA InfraRed Telescope Facility in the K band with an isotopologue methane gas cell to achieve wavelength calibration and a novel, iterative RV extraction method.
Description
We surveyed 14 members of young (~25-150Myr) moving groups, the young field star {epsilon} Eridani, and 18 nearby (<25pc) low-mass stars and achieved typical single-measurement precisions of 8-15m/s with a long-term stability of 15-50m/s over longer baselines.
We obtain the best NIR RV constraints to date on 27 targets in our sample, 19 of which were never followed by high-precision RV surveys. Our results indicate that very active stars can display long-term RV variations as low as ~25-50m/s at ~2.3125{mu}m, thus constraining the effect of jitter at these wavelengths. We provide the first multiwavelength confirmation of GJ876bc and independently retrieve orbital parameters consistent with previous studies.

We recovered RV variabilities for HD160934AB and GJ725AB that are consistent with their known binary orbits, and nine other targets are candidate RV variables with a statistical significance of 3{sigma}-5{sigma}. Our method, combined with the new iSHELL spectrograph, will yield long-term RV precisions of <~5m/s in the NIR, which will allow the detection of super-Earths near the habitable zone of mid-M dwarfs.
