Since 01 Jan 2016, CARMENES (Quirrenbach et al. 2016SPIE.9908E..12Q) is conducting a 750-night exoplanet survey targeting ~300 M dwarfs, including TESS targets, during Guaranteed Time Observations. The main scientific objective of CARMENES is to carry out a survey of late-type main sequence stars with the goal of detecting low-mass planets in their habitable zones. In the focus of the project are very cool dwarf stars later than spectral type M4 V and moderately active stars. We are able to detect a 2 MEarth planet in the habitable zone of an M5 V star, which requires a long-term radial velocity precision of 1 m s-1 per measurement. For stars later than M4 V (M < 0.25 Msol), such precision yields detections of super-Earths of 5 MEarth and smaller inside the entire width of the habitable zone. The CARMENES survey is thus providing a comprehensive overview of planetary systems around nearby northern M dwarfs. By reaching into the realm of Earth-like planets, it provides a treasure trove for follow-up studies probing their habitability.

At the same time, the CARMENES survey generates a unique data set for studies of M dwarf star atmospheres, rotation, and activity. The spectra cover important diagnostic lines for activity (Hα, Na I D1 and D2, and the Ca II infrared triplet), as well as FeH lines around 10,000 Å, from which the magnetic field can be inferred. Correlating the time series of these features with each other, and with wavelength-dependent radial velocities, provides new insight into the physical properties of M dwarf atmospheres, and provides excellent discrimination between planetary companions and stellar radial velocity "noise".
