  In a previous paper we have described a technique to derive constraints on
the differential emission measure (DEM) distribution, a measure of the
temperature distribution, of collisionally ionized hot plasmas from their X-ray
emission line spectra. We apply this technique to the Chandra/HETG spectra of
all of the nine hot stars available to us at the time this project was
initiated. We find that DEM distributions of six of the seven O stars in our
sample are very similar but that theta Ori has an X-ray spectrum characterized
by higher temperatures. The DEM distributions of both of B stars in our sample
have lower magnitudes than those of the O stars and one, tau Sco, is
characterized by higher temperatures than the other, beta Cru. These results
confirm previous work in which high temperatures have been found for theta Ori
and tau Sco and taken as evidence for channeling of the wind in magnetic
fields, the existence of which are related to the stars' youth. Our results
demonstrate the utility of our method for deriving temperature information for
large samples of X-ray emission line spectra.
