Radio evidence for nonthermal particle acceleration on stars of late spectral type (G, K, and M) is reviewed, including the pre-main-sequence T Tauri stars, the dwarf M flare stars, and the RS CVn binary stars. Both the long-lasting radio emission and the transient radio flares can be attributed to nonthermal electrons accelerated in magnetically confined coronae, radiating by either incoherent gyrosynchrotron radiation or by coherent processes. Related observations of the Sun provide the framework for interpreting the radio emission of late-type stars. We review recent Very Long Base Interferometry (VLBI) observations of single and binary stars, observations of rapid acceleration and dynamic spectra of dwarf M flare stars, and models for long-lasting radio emission from dwarf M flare stars and RS CVn stars. The VLBI data provide evidence for nonthermal particle acceleration in large-scale magnetospheres several times larger than the stellar radius for T Tauri and RS CVn stars. In contrast, rapid radio flares on dwarf M stars require sources much smaller than the visible star in size, and this is consistent with the VLBI data. Dynamic spectra suggest particle acceleration by relativistic electron beams on dwarf M stars. The long-lived radio radiation of dwarf M stars and RS CVn stars requires more-or-less continuous particle acceleration over periods of hours, perhaps by persistent low-amplitude flaring.
