Overview
Abstract
- Young T Tauri stars exhibit strong solar-type magnetic activity, with extremely high temperature coronae and energetic flares. In a few systems discovered with Chandra and XMM-Newton there is also evidence for X-ray emission produced by shocks associated with magnetically channeled accretion.
