Flares and CMEs can have deleterious effects on their surroundings: they can erode atmospheres of orbiting planets over time and also have high importance in stellar evolution. Most of the CME detections in the literature are single events…

Flares and coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are important for the evolution of the atmospheres of planets and their potential habitability, particularly for planets orbiting M stars at a distance < 0.4 AU. Detections of CMEs on these stars…

Tsinghua University-Ma Huateng Telescopes for Survey (TMTS) aims to detect fast-evolving transients in the Universe, which has led to the discovery of thousands of short-period variables and eclipsing binaries since 2020. In this paper, we…

We perform a study of stellar flares for the 24,809 stars observed with 2 minute cadence during the first two months of the TESS mission. Flares may erode exoplanets' atmospheres and impact their habitability, but might also trigger the…

Photometric space missions like Kepler and TESS continuously discover new exoplanets and advance the search for a second habitable world. The light curves recorded by these telescopes also reveal signs of magnetic activity, such as star…

Solar flares are often accompanied by filament/prominence eruptions ($\sim10^{4}$ K and $\sim 10^{10-11}$ cm$^{-3}$), sometimes leading to coronal mass ejections (CMEs) that directly affect the Earth's environment. `Superflares' are found…

The flare-associated stellar coronal mass ejection (CME) in solar-like and late type stars is quite essential for the habitability of an exoplanet. In this paper, we report detection of flare-associated CMEs in two M-dwarfs, thanks to the…
