X-ray astronomy of stellar coronae

M Güdel - The Astronomy and Astrophysics Review, 2004 - Springer
X-ray emission from stars in the cool half of the Hertzsprung-Russell diagram is generally
attributed to the presence of a magnetic corona that contains plasma at temperatures …

X-ray spectroscopy of stars

M Güdel, Y Nazé - The Astronomy and Astrophysics Review, 2009 - Springer
Non-degenerate stars of essentially all spectral classes are soft X-ray sources. Their X-ray
spectra have been important in constraining physical processes that heat plasma in stellar …

Evidence for accretion: High-resolution X-ray spectroscopy of the classical T Tauri star TW Hydrae

JH Kastner, DP Huenemoerder, NS Schulz… - The Astrophysical …, 2002 - iopscience.iop.org
We present high-resolution X-ray spectra of the X-ray–bright classical T Tauri star, TW
Hydrae, covering the wavelength range of 1.5–25 Å. The differential emission measure …

The Sun in time: activity and environment

M Güdel - Living Reviews in Solar Physics, 2007 - Springer
The Sun's magnetic activity has steadily declined during its main-sequence life. While the
solar photospheric luminosity was about 30% lower 4.6 Gyr ago when the Sun arrived on …

X-ray-emitting young stars in the Orion nebula

ABSTRACT The Orion Nebula Cluster and the molecular cloud in its vicinity have been
observed with the ACIS-I detector on board the Chandra X-ray Observatory with 23 hr …

A unified picture of the first ionization potential and inverse first ionization potential effects

JM Laming - The Astrophysical Journal, 2004 - iopscience.iop.org
We discuss models for coronal abundance anomalies observed in the coronae of the sun
and other late-type stars following a scenario first introduced by Schwadron, Fisk, & …

The 'solar model problem'solved by the abundance of neon in nearby stars

JJ Drake, P Testa - Nature, 2005 - nature.com
The interior structure of the Sun can be studied with great accuracy using observations of its
oscillations, similar to seismology of the Earth. Precise agreement between …

High-Resolution X-Ray Spectroscopy with Chandra and XMM-Newton

FBS Paerels, SM Kahn - Annual Review of Astronomy and …, 2003 - annualreviews.org
▪ Abstract The launches of the Chandra X-Ray Observatory in June 1999 and the XMM-
Newton Observatory in December 1999 opened a new era in X-ray astronomy. Both of these …

Coronal evolution of the Sun in time: high-resolution X-ray spectroscopy of solar analogs with different ages

A Telleschi, M Güdel, K Briggs, M Audard… - The Astrophysical …, 2005 - iopscience.iop.org
We investigate the long-term evolution of X-ray coronae of solar analogs based on high-
resolution X-ray spectroscopy and photometry with XMM-Newton. Six nearby main …

Are coronae of magnetically active stars heated by flares? II. Extreme ultraviolet and X-ray flare statistics and the differential emission measure distribution

M Güdel, M Audard, VL Kashyap, JJ Drake… - The Astrophysical …, 2003 - iopscience.iop.org
We investigate the EUV and X-ray flare rate distribution in radiated energy of the late-type
active star AD Leo. Occurrence rates of solar flares have previously been found to be …
