Abstract
Based on an analogy between stellar and solar flares, we investigate the ten-second oscillations detected in the U and B bands on the star EV Lac. The emission pulsations are associated with fast magnetoacoustic oscillations in coronal loops. We have estimated the magnetic field, B ≈ 320 G; the temperature, T ≈ 3.7 × 107 K; and the plasma density, n ≈ 1.6 × 1011 cm−3, in the region of energy release. We provide evidence suggesting that the optical emission source is localized at the loop footpoints.
