The joint XMM-Newton and Chandra view of YY Gem
read the original abstract
We have observed the flare star YY Gem simultaneously with XMM-Newton and Chandra as part of a multi-wavelength campaign aiming at a study of variability related to magnetic activity in this short-period eclipsing binary. Here we report on the first results from the analysis of the X-ray spectrum. The vicinity of the star provides high enough S/N in the CCD cameras onboard XMM-Newton to allow for time-resolved spectroscopy. Since the data are acquired simultaneously they allow for a cross-calibration check of the performance of the XMM-Newton RGS and the LETGS on Chandra.
