Scientific paper

We report here on pointed ROSAT observations of the hybrid chromosphere stars alpha TrA (K4III) and iota Aur (K3II). We detect alpha TrA at signal-to-noise greater than 50, and iota Aur marginally. The column density of absorption of X-rays from alpha TrA is consistent with IUE observations. We also see a flare type event in its lightcurve. Finally, we find that the X-ray emission from alpha TrA is mostly from plasma at temperatures greater than 1 keV.
