The Muscles Treasury Survey. II. Intrinsic LY alpha and extreme ultraviolet spectra of K and M dwarfs with exoplanets

The ultraviolet (UV) spectral energy distributions (SEDs) of low-mass (K- and M-type) stars play a critical role in the heating and chemistry of exoplanet atmospheres, but are not observationally well-constrained. Direct observations of the intrinsic flux of the Lyα line (the dominant sour...
