I wonder what the energetic particle flux is like coming out of a red dwarf?

It's more intense than our yellow dwarf, by a lot. It is mentioned in the article that the solar flares of the red dwarf would likely destroy an atmosphere on the subject exoplanet, especially at it's short distance from the red dwarf.

Thanks now you took away the last remaining excuse I had to avoid helping my wife clean the house!

‘Honey I can’t ! I have to research red dwarf thermonuclear behavior’ was working! Now no longer!

:)

Anyway I should have read the article more carefully then I did.
