J/A+A/320/79 J/A+A/320/79 Mass-luminosity relation of low-mass stars O Yu Malkov A E Piskunov D A Shpil'kina Astron. Astrophys. 320 79 1997 1997A&A...320...79M Stars, late-type Stars, masses stars: late-type stars: low-mass, brown dwarfs stars: luminosity function, mass function To construct the MLR, empirical data for 56 stars in 30 low mass multiple systems, main sequence components of spectral class M0 and later were collected and processed. We considered only those systems where the determination of dynamical masses of components is possible, that is, where masses are derived directly from celestial mechanical considerations rather than from relations between mass and some observational parameter.
