The infrared spectrum of ζ Pup that was obtained with the IRAS satellite has recently been compared by Lamers, Waters, and Wesseleus (1984) with flux distributions from models with coronal zones. Here the authors reconsider the thick corona and warm wind models used by Lamers et al. to interpret the IRAS data and find them unable to explain the X-ray observations. The thin coronal models of Waldron, however, are found to be capable of fitting the IRAS data. The question of the presence of base coronal regions must be considered still open.
