ROSAT All-Sky Survey: Chamaeleon Star Forming Region Study

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

This catalog contains a source list derived from observations of the ROSAT all-sky survey (RASS) in the direction of the Chamaeleon star-forming region cloud complex, as well as spectroscopic identifications for the detected X-ray sources.

Description

The main purpose of this identification program was the search for low-mass pre-main sequence stars. Sixteen previously known PMS stars were detected with high confidence by ROSAT: eight are classical T Tauri stars and eight are weak-line T Tauri stars.

Seventy-seven new weak-line T Tauri stars were identified on the basis of the presence of strong Li 6707 Angstrom absorption, a spectral type later than F0, and chromospheric emission. In addition, 6 new dKe-dMe candidates were found among the RASS sources. Coordinates and count rates are given for all of the X-ray sources.
