    Abstract

    Extreme Ultraviolet Explorer (EUVE) observations have provided detailed spectroscopic and timing studies of several flare stars, including AU Mic (Cully et al., 1993), AD Leo (Hawley et al., 1995) and EQ Peg (Monsignori-Fossi et al., 1995). In this bulletin, we present the EUVE and optical follow-up observations of a newly detected flare star. This star was serendipitously discovered during an EUVE observation of the G star HD 43162 as part of the analysis for the 3rd EUVE Right Angle Program Catalog (Christian, 2002). Analysis of the EUVE spectra obtained during the largest flare (Fe XIX-XXIV emission and a strong 300-650 � continuum) have been presented elsewhere (Christian et al., 2003). We present optical spectroscopy and results obtained at MT Stromlo Observatory to identify the optical counterpart in � 1, and the long-term EUVE Deep Survey light-curves in � 2.
