Superflares are less harmful to exoplanets than previously thought

Superflares, extreme radiation bursts from stars, have been suspected of causing lasting damage to the atmospheres and thus habitability of exoplanets. A newly published study found evidence that they only pose a limited danger to planetary systems, since the radiation bursts do not explode in the direction of the exoplanets.

What is the expected thickness of the habitable zone of red dwarf stars in terms of astronomical units or similar measures between the zone's and outer edges in respect to the star?
