Abstract
Conversion of zero-mass Goldstone particles (arions), generated in the central regions of stars, into photons in the magnetic field of stars leads to a noticeably higher x-ray emission than in the other mechani sms. The intensity of x-ray emission depends strongly on the physical parameters of the arion. Observation of radiation from different kinds of stars permits one, in principle, to determine these parameters.
