Measured the amount of plasma between 10000 and 30 million degrees—responsible for the emission of extreme UV radiation and soft X-rays—in a sample of Sun-like and low-mass stars. Sun-like stars (spectral classes FGK) and low-mass stars (spectral class M) host in their outer atmospheres (the corona) plasma at temperatures of millions of degrees. Such high temperatures are reached through

Berkeley 59 is a young stellar clusters, which is experiencing a rapid asymmetric expansion Stars typically form in groups or stellar clusters containing from hundreds to thousands of members. Within these clusters, stars are not stationary but move along trajectories determined by the system’s overall gravity (that is, the gravitational potential of the cluster) and by their mutual interactions.
