Density Diagnostics of the Hot Plasma in AE Aquarii with XMM-Newton

We report on XMM-Newton observations of the magnetic CV AE Aqr. High-resolution spectroscopy of the He-like triplet of N and O with the RGS has enabled us to measure the electron number density of the plasma as 6 10 super(11) cm super(-3). Incorporating this with the emission measure, we estimate th...
