Scientific paper

Monitor of All-Sky X-ray Image (MAXI) started its operation in 2009 August. Owing to its unprecedentedly high sensitivity as an all-sky X-ray monitor, and to its capability of real-time data transfer, MAXI is able not only to make a continuous monitor of X-ray sources, but also to catch quickly various transient X-ray events, like flares on stars. Making use of this capability, we have searched stellar flares, and have detected thirteen flares from six RS CVns and one flare from a Young Stellar Objects. These flares are on the high-end as flares from stars. In this talk, we will report the characteristics of X-ray flares in the sources.
