Young M dwarfs within 25pc. I.

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

We have completed a high-resolution (R~60000) optical spectroscopic survey of 185 nearby M dwarfs identified using ROSAT data to select active, young objects with fractional X-ray luminosities comparable to or greater than Pleiades members.

Description

Our targets are drawn from the "NStars" 20pc census and the "Moving-M" sample with distances determined from parallaxes or spectrophotometric relations. We limited our sample to 25pc from the Sun, prior to correcting for pre-main-sequence overluminosity or binarity.

Nearly half of the resulting M dwarfs are not present in the Gliese catalog and have no previously published spectral types. We identified 30 spectroscopic binaries (SBs) from the sample, which have strong X-ray emission due to tidal spin-up rather than youth.
