“…Its value of V − R = 0.72 mag places it to the left of the coronal dividing line in the Hertzsprung-Russel diagram (hereafter HRD) where stars are supposed to have a chromosphere, a transition region, and a corona. That dividing line was proposed by Linsky & Haisch (1979) near V −R = 0.80 mag and later confirmed by the study of Simon et al (1982) with a larger sample of stars. In the solar neighborhood (d ≤ 30 pc), β Ceti is the single giant star with the highest X-ray luminosity log L x = 30.2 erg/s (Maggio et al 1998;Hünsch et al 1996), which is calculated assuming a distance of d = 29.5 pc based on the Hipparcos parallax (van Leeuwen 2007).…”

“…The group of non-coronal stars (giant stars cooler than K2) display emission lines formed at temperatures cooler than 20 000 K, which can originate only in chromospheres. The Linsky-Haisch dividing line separates the groups of coronal and non-coronal stars in the Herzsprung-Russell (HR) diagram and was extensively studied in the 80's (Simon et al 1982;Haisch 1987;Brown & Carpenter 1984;Carpenter et al 1985). Even if this division of giant stars into two groups seemed too simplistic, hybrid giant stars with mixed coronae and significant wind activity have been revealed (Reimers 1982;Hall 2008;and Ayres 2010).…”
