Problems Associated with the M-Dwarf Population
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 14 August 2015
Abstract
The existence of a rich population of late M-type dwarfs with small peculiar velocities is discussed on the basis of the work of Weistrop, Murray and Sanduleak, Pesch and others. These stars probably supply the ‘missing’ mass in the solar neighborhood. Their small peculiar velocities create problems related to the stability of the galactic disk.
