Stellar white-light flares are believed to play an essential role on the physical and chemical properties of the atmosphere of the surrounding exoplanets. Here we report an optical monitoring campaign on the nearby flaring system EI~Cnc…

We have carried out a search for flares from the analysis of light curves for 12 active G, K, and M dwarfs. As sources of data we used ground-based observations in 2000-2020 from the photometric databases ASAS, SuperWASP, KWS. Events of…

We present simultaneous UV-G-R-I monitoring of 19 M dwarfs that revealed a huge flare on the M9 dwarf 2MASSW J1707183+643933 with an amplitude in the UV of at least 6 magnitudes. This is one of the strongest detections ever of an optical…

We present the results of an observational campaign which obtained high time cadence, high precision, simultaneous optical and IR photometric observations of three M dwarf flare stars for 47 hours. The campaign was designed to characterize…

We present long-term, multi-color photometric monitoring and spectroscopic observations of the short-period M-type eclipsing binary BX Tri. Six flare events were recorded in 4 years from 2014 to 2017. Three of them were detected on one…

M dwarfs are the most common type of star in the solar neighborhood, and many exhibit frequent and highly energetic flares. To better understand these events across the electromagnetic spectrum, a campaign observed AU Mic (dM1e) over 7 days…

Photometric observations in the R and I bands of the detached M-type double-lined eclipsing binary CU Cnc have been acquired and analysed. The photometric elements obtained from the analysis of the light curves have been combined with an…
