Active Late-Type Stellar Coronae: Hints for Flare Heating?
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 25 May 2016
Abstract
The Extreme Ultraviolet Explorer data archive has been used to study flare energy distributions and infer the role of flares in coronal heating. We have constructed flare number distributions as a function of observed EUV and X-ray emitted thermal energy. We find cumulative flare distributions of the form N(> E) ∝ E−α+1 with α ≍ 1.5–2.6. We present results in the context of spectral type classification.
