Abstract

Twenty-two new dwarf M stars are reported. If the M dwarfs are distributed homogeneously in the Solar vicinity then the spatial mass density of the present sample is too small to explain the ‘missing mass’ required by stellar dynamics. There is a large uncertainty arising from the small sample size.
