内容記述 | During the all-sky survey conducted by the Rosat Wide Field Camera, the binary flare star system BY Draconis was monitored with coverage by the IUE satellite far-UV and optical observations and by the Rosat X-ray telescope for part of the time. A stellar flare was detected in all four wavebands. This is the first unambiguous EUV detection of a flare and one of the widest simultaneous wavelength-range coverages obtained. The peak luminosity and total energy of this flare in the photon energy range 0.08-0.18 keV are comparable with the values obtained for a number of flares integrated over a larger energy range by Exosat satellite observations in 1983-86. It is concluded that radiation in the EUV carries away a substantial fraction of the total flare energy. |
