A Search for Pre-Main Sequence Stars in the High-Latitude Molecular Clouds - Part Two - a Survey of the Einstein Database

The preliminary results are reported of a survey of every EINSTEIN image which overlaps any high-latitude molecular cloud in a search for X-ray emitting pre-main sequence stars. This survey, together with complementary KPNO and IRAS data, will allow the determination of how prevalent low mass star formation is in these clouds in general and, particularly, in the translucent molecular clouds.
