NenuFAR beamformed Stokes-V data tentatively show a ~10σ left-hand circularly polarized burst from HD 189733 at 27–40 MHz lasting ~16 min, offset by ~1 h from the imaging burst of Zhang et al. (2025).

abstract
The low-mass star GJ 1151 has been reported to display variable low-frequency radio emission, which has been interpreted as a signpost of coronal star-planet interactions with an unseen exoplanet. Here we report the first X-ray detection of GJ 1151's corona based on XMM-Newton data. We find that the star displays a small flare during the X-ray observation. Averaged over the observation, we detect the star with a low coronal temperature of 1.6~MK and an X-ray luminosity of $L_X = 5.5\times 10^{26}$\,erg/s. During the quiescent time periods excluding the flare, the star remains undetected with an upper limit of $L_{X,\,qui} \leq 3.7\times 10^{26}$\,erg/s. This is compatible with the coronal assumptions used in a recently published model for a star-planet interaction origin of the observed radio signals from this star.

Tentative detection of circularly polarized bursty radio emissions from the HD 189733 exoplanetary system using NenuFAR beamformed observations
NenuFAR beamformed Stokes-V data tentatively show a ~10σ left-hand circularly polarized burst from HD 189733 at 27–40 MHz lasting ~16 min, offset by ~1 h from the imaging burst of Zhang et al. (2025).
