Scientific paper

The correlation between the coronal X-ray temperature and the magnetic field strength in late-type stars is investigated, based on data primarily from the ROSAT PSPC. According to the observation, we divide the stars into three groups: single, binary and RS CVn stars. From the sample of single stars, we find a clear correlation of the coronal temperature with the magnetic field strength. We interpret that result as the magnetic heating process.
