Metallicity of M dwarfs II. A comparative study of photometric metallicity scales

Metallicity of M dwarfs II. A comparative study of photometric metallicity scales

Stellar parameters are not easily derived from M dwarf spectra, which are dominated by complex bands of diatomic and triatomic molecules and not well described at the line by line level by atmospheric models. M dwarf metallicities are therefore most commonly derived through less direct techniques. Several recent publications propose …
