Scientific paper

We propose to obtain high quality LETG observations of the B giant Epsilon Canis Majoris (B2II). These observations will be analyzed together with available optical, IUE, EUVE, and XMM data. Epsilon Canis Majoris is one of only two early-type stars detected in the EUV (lambda < 900Ang) with the NASA Extreme Ultraviolet Explorer (EUVE) satellite, and is the main photoionization source within the solar neighborhood. With high quality Chandra X-ray spectra we will have a complete spectrum, from X-ray to IR wavelengths, that can be analyzed self- consistently. This will allow tight constraints to be placed on the star, its wind, and the X-ray emitting plasma.
