چکیده
High-resolution X-ray spectroscopy has addressed not only various topics in coronal physics of stars, but has also uncovered important features relevant for our understanding of stellar evolution and the stellar environment. I summarize recent progress in coronal X-ray spectroscopy and in particular also discuss new results from studies of X-rays from pre-main sequence stars.

η Carinae (η Car) is a stellar binary system with a period of 5.54 years. It harbors one of the brightest and most massive stars in our galaxy. This paper presents spectroscopic evidence for a fast (up to 2,000 km s) X-ray jet of ionized gas launched from η Car just before what is believed to be the binary periastron (point of smallest binary separation). By analogy with jets in other astrophys...

In these lecture notes I briefly discuss the present day situation and new discoveries in astrophysics of neutron stars focusing on isolated objects. The latter include soft gamma repeaters, anomalous X-ray pulsars, central compact objects in supernova remnants, the Magnificent seven, and rotating radio transients. In the last part of the paper I describe available tests of cooling curves of ne...

We discuss a set of tests which confront observations of cooling compact objects and theories of their thermal evolution. As an example we apply the recently developed LogNLog S test of compact star cooling theories to hybrid stars with a color superconducting quark matter core, we also apply and discuss other existing tests. While there is not yet a microscopically founded superconducting quar...

We suggest that superbursts from some low mass X-ray binaries may be due to breaking and re-formation of diquark pairs, on the surface of realistic strange stars. Diquarks are expected to break up due to the explosion and shock of the thermonuclear process. The subsequent production of copious diquark pairing may produce sufficient energy to produce the superbursts.

We present spectroscopy of the optical counterpart to 1RXS J162848.1-41524, also known as the microquasar candidate MCQC J162847-4152. All the data indicate that this X-ray source is not a microquasar, and that it is a singlelined chromospherically active binary system with a likely orbital period of 4.9 days. Our analysis supports a K3IV spectral classification for the star, which is dominant ...
