Abstract

As is well known, very rapid and non-periodic changes in brightness have been discovered in several late-type dwarf stars in recent years. In the vicinity of the sun, within a radius not exceeding 10 parsecs, nine or ten such objects have been found and named ‘flare’ stars because of their extraordinarily rapid variations. The prototype of these flare stars is UV Ceti. For the purpose of the present discussion, we shall call these objects ‘classical’ flare stars.
