The traditional habitable zone depends on conditions suitable for long term stability of liquid water on the surface of planets. It is suggested that the frequent intense stellar CME events could have led to so rapid erosion of planetary atmospheres that generally speaking there is essentially no habitable zones around Earth-mass planets around M-stars. However, fast atmosperic mass loss should put the planetary atmosphere in the hydrodynamic, in which the energy consumption by the outflow could have limited the atmospheric loss and make a CO2-dominant planetary atmosphere stable in the habitable zones of M-stars. In this work we will explore the atmosphere stability of broad range of habitable planets with different mass and atmospheric composition.
