The flare star AD Leo (dM3.5e, 4.9 pc) was observed by EUVE from 1993 March 1-March 3 UT. A flare was detected by the EUVE DS/S and seen in optical photometry on 1993 March 2 UT. We summarize an analysis of the flare’s physical parameters, and present differential emission measure (DEM) curves calculated for the quiescent, flare peak and flare decay phases of the observation.
