The high sensitivity and angular resolving power of the VLA permits observations for the first time of the steady (quiescent) microwave emission from stellar coronae as well as detailed studies of stellar flares. Gary and Linsky (1981) first detected steady 6 cm emission from χ1 Ori (GO V) and UV Cet (M5.6e V), and Topka and Marsh (1982) subsequently detected quiescent emission from both components of EQ Peg (dM3.5e + dM4.5e).
