ROSAT Results on Hot and Cool Stars (I)
Abstract
I will present selected highlights from ROSAT observations of stellar X-ray emission. Specifically I will discuss the dearth of X-ray emission among white dwarfs and new evidence for the occurrence of X-ray emitting shocks in the winds of early-type stars. Last I will focus on ROSAT observations of the eclipsing cool star binary systems AR Lac, Algol, YY Gem and α CrB and the resulting implications for coronal structure on these stars.
