Mind the Gap. I. Hα Activity of M Dwarfs Near the Partially/Fully Convective Boundary and a New Hα Emission Deficiency Zone on the Main Sequence

Since identifying the gap in the H-R Diagram (HRD) marking the transition between partially and fully-convective interiors, a unique type of slowly pulsating M dwarf has been proposed. These unstable M dwarfs provide new laboratories in which to understand how changing interior structures can produc...
