The Einstein Observatory Stella X-Ray Database
Abstract
The authors present the motivation for and methodology followed in constructing the Einstin Observatory Stellar X-ray Database from a uniform analysis of nearly 4000 Imaging Proportional Counter fields obtained during the life of this mission. This project has been implemented using the INGRESTM database system, so that statistical analyses of the properties of detected X-ray sources are relatively easy and flexibly accomplished.
