Abstract:
We present 30 new nearby (d<30pc) red dwarf candidates, with estimated
spectral types M6 to M8. 26 were directly selected from the DENIS
database (B/denis), and another 4 were first extracted from the LHS
catalogue (I/87) and cross-identified with a DENIS counterpart.
Their proper motions were measured on the MAMA measuring machine from
plates spanning 13 to 48 years, and are larger than 0.1arcsec/yr,
ruling out the possibility that they are giants. Their distances were
estimated from the DENIS colours and IR colour-magnitude relations and
range between 15 and 30pc.
