Coronal Structure and Abundances in Young Fast Rotators

AB Dor, Speedy Mic and Rst137B are in their early post-T Tauri evolutionary phase ( 10e7 toward the saturated-supersaturated boundary but a decline beyond this among supersaturated stars. All three of the stars studied in detail here show lower coronal abundances of the low FIP elements Mg, Si and Fe, relative to the high FIP elements S, O and Ne, as compared to the solar mixture. The coronal Fe abundances of the stellar sample are inversely correlated with Lx/Lbol, declining slowly with rising Lx/Lbol, but with a much more sharp decline at Lx/Lbol>3x10e-4. For dwarfs the Fe abundance is also well-correlated with Rossby number. The coronal O/Fe ratios for dwarfs show a clear increase with decreasing Rossby number, apparently reaching saturation at [O/Fe]=0.5 at the coronal supersaturation boundary. Similar increases in O/Fe with increasing coronal temperature and $L_X/L_{bol}$ are seen.
