Stellar X-ray flares from the 2XMM catalog

DOI

We present a uniform, large-scale survey of X-ray flare emission, based on the XMM-Newton Serendipitous Source Catalogue and its associated data products. Our survey comprises both XMM-targeted active stars and those observed serendipitously in the field-of-view of each observation. The 2XMM Catalogue and the associated time-series ('light-curve') data products have been used as the basis for the survey of X-ray flares from cool stars in the Hipparcos Tycho-2 catalogue. Our sample contains ~130 flares with well-observed profiles; they originate from ~70 stars.
