Correcting
the Angular Size
R¥ /(d/100 pc) = 4.12 ± 0.68 km (Drake et al,
2002)
Ratio
of the emitted to the bb power in the 0.1-2 keV range for different values of the plasma frequency and B =3 x1013 G. Filled circles: T=constant. Open circles:
T(q).
T =const:
7.56 ± 1.25 km < R ¥ < 9.64 ± 1.59 km
T(q) (larger hardening) : 9.11 ± 1.50
km < R ¥ < 11.73 ± 1.94 km
If d ~ 130 pc +
emission from the entire star surface + 1 < wp / w p, 0 < 2.5:
THE MERIDIONAL T DISTRIBUTION CAN PROVIDE R ¥ ~10-12 km
