Magnetospherically driven optical and radio aurorae at the end of the stellar main sequence [1]

Aurorae are detected from all the magnetized planets in our Solar System, including Earth. They are powered by magnetospheric current systems that lead to the precipitation of energetic electrons into the high-latitude regions of the upper atmosphere.
