The PLATO 2.0 Mission

Heike Rauer, +160 more
TL;DR: The PLATO 2.0 instrument consists of 34 small aperture telescopes (32 with 25 sec readout cadence and 2 with 2.5 sec candence) providing a wide field-of-view (2232 deg2) and a large photometric magnitude range (4-16 mag) as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

The PLATO 2.0 mission

Heike Rauer, +167 more
TL;DR: The PLATO 2.0 mission as discussed by the authors has been selected for ESA's M3 launch opportunity (2022/24) to provide accurate key planet parameters (radius, mass, density and age) in statistical numbers.
Journal ArticleDOI

Large-scale magnetic topologies of early M dwarfs

TL;DR: In this article, a small sample of stars ranging from spectral type M0 to M8 was used to investigate how dynamo processes operate in stars on both sides of the full convection threshold (spectral type M4).
Journal ArticleDOI

Stellar magnetism: empirical trends with age and rotation

TL;DR: In this article, the observed large-scale surface magnetic fields of low-mass stars were reconstructed through Zeeman-Doppler imaging (ZDI), and the results indicated that small and large scale fields could share the same dynamo field generation processes.
