Abstract

Aims.We studied the thermal properties and chemical composition of the X-ray emitting plasma of a sample of bright members of the Taurus Molecular Cloud to investigate possible differences among classical and weak-lined T Tauri stars, and possible dependences of the abundances on the stellar activity level and/or on the presence of accretion/circumstellar material.
