dc.descriptionObservations of magnetically active stars with Chandra and XMM-Newton have deepened our knowledge of the physics of the atmospheres in late-type stars. In this review paper, I discuss two topics that have profited significantly from Chandra and XMM-Newton. Of particular interest, studies of the elemental composition of stellar coronae have taken advantage of the high spectral resolution available with the grating instruments on board these satellites. I summarize the status of our knowledge and discuss the elemental composition in a variety of stellar coronae. I also focus on the topic of flares in stellar coronae, and review the contributions made by XMM-Newton and Chandra to X-ray and multi-wavelength studies.
