    Description: The IUE data on 36 late type close binary stars are presented. It is shown that the chromospheric and TR line fluxes increase with decreasing stellar rotation period, though not as rapidly as does the X-ray flux. There is an increasing dependence upon rotation with increasing line temperature. The data are consistent with the hypothesis that there exists a critical rotation rate, which depends on temperature, below which the emission flux is independent of rotation and above which it increases linearly with increasing angular velocity omega.

    Description: High-resolution IUE spectra of the Mg II k line of HD 199178 were analyzed, applying spectral imaging techniques to derive an image of the chromospheric structure and to study the transient behavior of the chromosphere. All spectra in the IUE archives were uniformly reduced and analyzed. Results are compared with ground-based observations of the photosphere. Four ultraviolet flares on HD 199178 are observed; 3 of these occurred at roughly the same rotational phase. There is no clear phase-dependence of the SWP line fluxes, but there is for the Mg II k flux. The emission centroid of the Mg II k line varies in a quasi-sinusoidal fashion, presumably due to the rotation of a nonuniform chromosphere.

    Description: The eclipsing RS CVn system AR Lacertae was observed with IUE in October 1981 and October 1983. The phase coverage provided by the 1983 data is adequate to determine the location and size of two plage-like regions in the atmosphere of the K star using a Doppler imaging analysis of the Mg II k lines. A third epoch data set, consisting of many spectra spaced uniformly throughout a single orbital cycle was obtained in September 1985. Rotational modulation of the SWP line fluxes and an initial look at the Mg II lines reveals clear evidence of discrete chromospheric structures. These include a localized flare on the G star, a chromospherically inactive hemisphere on the G star, and plages on the K star.

    Description: The HEAO A-2 low energy X-ray detectors have surveyed over 95% of the sky in the spectral bands 0.18-0.44 and 0.44-2.8 keV, down to a typical limiting sensitivity of 1 x 10 to the -11th and 3 x 10 to the -11th ergs per sq cm per sec in each band, respectively. Using a significance criterion of 6 sigma for existence, 114 sources are cataloged, of which 54 were previously undiscovered and 32 remain unidentified. The catalog contains a listing of all counterpart identifications and a cross-reference to all HEAO 1 A-2 low energy detector team publications on the catalog sources complete through the end of 1981. Supplementary material allows the estimation of spectral parameters for the spectral models from the observed intensities. Simple graphs allow the extraction of energy fluxes at the earth, both with and without the effects of interstellar absorption. The angular distribution of the cataloged sources in the 0.44-2.8 keV band is concentrated toward the galactic plane and resembles that seen at higher energy. The distribution in the 0.18-0.44 keV band is more uniform and contains many more newly discovered and unidentified sources.

    Description: The HEAO 1 data has been searched for evidence of X-ray emission from 105 bright late-type stars of luminosity classes IV and V, selected on the basis of indirect optical evidence of the presence of a hot corona. Six of the target stars were detected at the 3-standard deviation level and 15 were coincident with 2-standard deviation X-ray sources. On a statistical basis no more than 5 of these 21 sources are spurious, and the probability that the identification with the class of active chromosphere stars is spurious is less than 0.00001. The sources lie near a line of X-ray/bolometric luminosity ratio = 0.0001, similar to a solar plage, and it is concluded that the most active coronae of late-type stars which are not members of close binary systems are being observed. The RS CVn systems discovered to date seem to form a distinct class of coronal X-ray sources, but the lowest X-ray luminosity members of the group, of which Capella may be the prototype, appear to overlap the domain of these single stars with active coronae. The data do not fit the coronal model of Gorenstein and Tucker (1976), but they are consistent with the coronal loop model of Rosner et al. (1978) as extended by Walter et al. (1980).

    Description: Observational evidence supporting the contention that coronal activity in G stars obeys the same relation with angular velocity as that observed in RS CVn systems is presented. It is found, however, that the level of the quiescent coronal activity, as measured by the ratio of the X-ray luminosity to the bolometric luminosity, at a given angular velocity is approximately one order of magnitude lower in G stars than in the RS CVn systems. Data on additional K stars indicate that these stars are indistinguishable from the K components of RS CVn systems. No evidence is found that the surface gravity has any appreciable effect on the level of coronal activity. The observation that the ratio of the X-ray luminosity to the bolometric luminosity is directly proportional to the product of the angular velocity and some function of the depth of the convective zone is seen as supporting a dynamo mechanism for the generation of the stellar magnetic flux.

    Description: Soft X-ray observations are presented of a nearly complete sample of RS Canum Venaticorum systems taken with the Einstein X-ray Observatory. It is shown that the quiescent coronal activity, as measured by the ratio of the X-ray to bolometric flux, is directly proportional to the angular velocity of the star with the active chromosphere in these systems. This relation is found to hold over two decades in angular velocity. It is also found that the stellar surface gravity has no obvious influence on the ratio of the X-ray luminosity to the bolometric luminosity over two decades in surface gravity. It is pointed out that the linear relation between the ratio of the X-ray luminosity to the bolometric luminosity on the one hand, and the angular velocity, on the other, holds important implications for dynamo theories of the generation of stellar magnetic fields.

    Description: Two soft X-ray sources positionally coincident with the supernova remnants PKS 1209-52 and RCW 103 have been discovered by using the A-2 experiment on HEAO 1. Their measured fluxes are, respectively, about 1.4 x 10 to the -10th erg/cm-sec (0.2-1.0 keV) and about 1.8 x 10 to the -10th erg/cm-sec (0.6-2.0 keV). Spectral data are used to derive physical parameters for each remnant. For PKS 1209-52 the parameters are suggestive of the remnant's being in an advanced evolutionary phase, with shock-heated interstellar material producing the soft X-ray emission. RCW 103, in contrast, is known from radio and optical data to be in an earlier evolutionary phase, and the soft X-ray flux is most likely due to emission originating in a reflected shock wave or in plasma evaporated from shock-heated interstellar clouds.

    Description: Stellar chromospheric and coronal activity appears ubiquitous among late type stars to the left of the TR-wind boundary line (Linksy and Haisch 1979). The level of activity as measured by the X-ray surface flux is linearly proportional to the stellar angular velocity, with the exception of slowly rotating dwarfs (Walter 1981, 1982; Walter and Bowyer 1981). The peculiar rapidly rotating G giant FK Comae (Merrill 1948) appears to fit into this pattern. Line widths indicate V sin i = 120 + or - 20 km s(-1) (Bopp and Stencel 1981). FK Comae has strong Ca II H and K and H alpha emission, strong transition region UV lines (Bopp and Stencel 1981), and an X-ray surface flux in good agreement with its rapid rotation (Walter 1981). Yet, FK Comae is an enigmatic star. It is a rapid rotator, but it is not clear why it is a rapid rotator. There is no direct evidence for duplicity; indeed, the upper limit of 20 km s(-1) on the K velocity puts tight constraints on any binary configuration, especially if sin i approx 1, as indicated by the large V sin i. Bopp and Stencel (1981) have suggested that FK Comae is an example of a coalesced W UMa system (Webbink 1976), wherein the orbital angular momentum has become rotational angular momentum of the coalesced star.
