Observations of the radio emission from the red dwarf flare stars in the solar neighbourhood have been made at Jodrell Bank since 1958. In Australia, observations have been made both of these flare stars and of the early type flare stars in stellar aggregates. Observations in both Britain and Australia have been hampered by the difficulties involved in obtaining radio and optical coverage at the same time.In the initial Jodrell Bank programme, at a frequency of 240 mhz, between 1958 and 1960, 474 hours of observations were obtained, mostly on UV Ceti, and 13 events compatible with bursts of radio emission from the star were seen, but due to poor seeing conditions at the Cambridge Observatories the correlation between radio and optical flares could not be established, although the rate of occurence of radio events was similar to the reported rate for optical events of a few magnitudes.

In reviewing radio studies of M-dwarf flare stars one is struck by the curious way in which the field developed. Indeed, that is twenty years old may be the greatest surprise, for if one imagines the largest solar flares occurring at distances comparable to the nearest stars the expected flux densities would be < 10 mJy. Yet, despite the fact that detection thresholds in 1963 were about two orders of magnitude higher than the expected value, Lovell et al. (1963) made extensive observations and reported the. detection of UV Ceti. This remarkable discovery was followed immediately by detections of V371 Ori (Slee et al., 1963) and EV Lac (Lovell et al., 1964). One might have thought that these unexpected discoveries would have spurred significant interest in this new field but they did not.

AbstractKnown Southern flare stars and RSCVn-like variables are being observed with the Molonglo Observatory Synthesis Telescope in an attempt to detect quiescent (non-flaring) emission. Two flare stars out of 7 and one RSCVn out of 8 have been detected. Quiescent emission has not been observed previously from these sources at such a low frequency. All sources so far detected have mean flux densities below 10 mJy and in at least two of them the emission varies with a time scale of about one day.
