Observations of X-ray oscillations in XI Boo: Evidence of a fast kink mode in the stellar loops

We report the observations of X-ray oscillations during the flare in a cool active star XI Boo for the first time. XI Boo was observed by EPIC/MOS of the XMM-Newton satellite. The X-ray light curve is investigated with wavelet and periodogram analyses. Both analyses clearly show oscillations of the period of 1019 s. We interpret these oscillations as a fundamental fast-kink mode of magnetoacoustic waves.
