Scientific paper

We present the Sloan Low-mass Wide Pairs of Kinematically Equivalent Stars (SLoWPoKES), a catalog of 1342 very-wide (projected separation >500 AU), low-mass (at least one mid-K--mid-M dwarf component) common proper motion pairs identified from astrometry, photometry, and proper motions in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. A Monte Carlo based Galactic model is constructed to assess the probability of chance alignment for each pair; only pairs with a probability of chance alignment
