X-ray emission line components from Mg, Si, S and Fe were unambiguously detected from Capella with the Solid-State Spectrometer onboard the Einstein Observatory. The X-ray spectrum is inconsistent with an isothermal corona, and requires components between 6,000,000 K and at least 24,000,000 K for an adequate fit. An inhomogeneous corona in which the X-ray emitting plasma is confined to magnetically-contained loops appears to be reconcilable with all of the experimental evidence.
