Abstract
We present an X-ray study of the young and massive star cluster NGC 2362. The aim of this work is to analyze the activity level of the pre-main sequence (PMS) late-type population of the cluster and compare it with that from late-type stars with similar ages but located in intermediate and low-mass star forming regions. In this way we could understand if the environment plays an important role in the magnetic activity of PMS late-type stars. This is still an open issue in early stellar evolution.
