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 …

Estimation of the XUV radiation onto close planets and their evaporation

J Sanz-Forcada, G Micela, I Ribas, AMT Pollock… - Astronomy & …, 2011 - aanda.org
Context. The current distribution of planet mass vs. incident stellar X-ray flux supports the
idea that photoevaporation of the atmosphere may take place in close-in planets. Integrated …

The X-ray sun in time: a study of the long-term evolution of coronae of solar-type stars

M Güdel, EF Guinan, SL Skinner - The Astrophysical Journal, 1997 - iopscience.iop.org
We have used the ASCA and ROSAT X-ray satellites to probe the coronae of a sample of
nine solar-like G stars. These stars are all ostensibly single with ages ranging from 70 Myr to …

[HTML][HTML] Coronae on solar-like stars.

JHMM Schmitt - Astronomy and Astrophysics, v. 318, p. 215 …, 1997 - adsabs.harvard.edu
Coronae on solar-like stars. ADS Classic is now deprecated. It will be completely retired in
October 2019. This page will automatically redirect to the new ADS interface at that point …

High-resolution X-ray spectra of Capella: initial results from the Chandra high-energy transmission grating spectrometer

CR Canizares, DP Huenemoerder… - The Astrophysical …, 2000 - iopscience.iop.org
High-resolution spectra of the active binary Capella (G8 III+ G1 III) covering the energy
range of 0.4–8.0 keV (1.5–30 Å) show a large number of emission lines, demonstrating the …

First light measurements of Capella with the low-energy transmission grating spectrometer aboard the Chandra X-Ray Observatory

AC Brinkman, CJT Gunsing, JS Kaastra… - The Astrophysical …, 2000 - iopscience.iop.org
We present the first X-ray spectrum obtained by the Low-Energy Transmission Grating
Spectrometer (LETGS) aboard the Chandra X-Ray Observatory. The spectrum is of Capella …

Element abundances in the upper atmospheres of the Sun and stars: update of observational results

U Feldman, JM Laming - Physica Scripta, 2000 - iopscience.iop.org
We review observational progress in the determination of element abundances in the solar
corona, largely due to the new capabilities offered by the instrumentation on the SOHO …

On the sizes of stellar X-ray coronae

JU Ness, M Güdel, J Schmitt, M Audard… - Astronomy & …, 2004 - aanda.org
Spatial information from stellar X-ray coronae cannot be assessed directly, but scaling laws
from the solar corona make it possible to estimate sizes of stellar coronae from the physical …
