CARMENES. V: CARMENCITA, M dwarfs in multiple systems

  With the help of CARMENCITA, the CARMENES Cool dwarf Information and daTa
  Archive, we investigate the membership in double, triple or higher-order
  systems of almost 1000 of the brightest, latest M dwarfs in the solar
  neighbourhood. We use data compiled from the literature and measured by us.
  Angular separations range from a few tenths of arcseconds to several
  arcminutes, which translate into a very wide interval of projected physical
  separations. Studying M dwarfs in multiple systems provide information on a
  wealth of topics, e.g. from dynamical masses, through distance and
  metallicity, to the formation and evolution of weakly bound systems.
