Scientific paper
The status of the newly born field of stellar X-ray astronomy is considered. The need for further observational capability, the study of stellar surface activity and the development of design criteria for a follow-up mission, with primary emphasis on stellar observations and with general capabilities within the scope of the Explorer program are examined. The criteria which lead to the desired instrumental capabilities are reviewed; and an overview of the proposed instrument and some of its capabilities, as indicated by simulations is presented. Two versions of a trial payload the stellar coronal. Explorer (STCOEX) which meet the observational desirable are developed.
