Abstract
The theoretical Xray-EUV spectral code of Landini and Monsignori Fossi (1990) has been compared with an emission spectrum of the active late type star AU Mic obtained during the initial calibration phase of Ext reme Ultraviolet Explorer Spectrometer. This comparison has been used to test the overall applicability of the code and to provide inputs fo r improvement. A number of lines were identified in the spectrum of AU Mic including several highly ionized iron lines.
