X-Ray-Emitting Stars Identified from the ROSAT All-Sky Survey and the Sloan Digital Sky Survey
The ROSAT All-Sky Survey (RASS) was the first imaging X-ray survey ofthe entire sky. Combining the RASS Bright and Faint Source Catalogsyields an average of about three X-ray sources per square degree.However, while X-ray source counterparts are known to range from distantquasars to nearby M dwarfs, the RASS data alone are often insufficientto determine the nature of an X-ray source. As a result, large-scalefollow-up programs are required to construct samples of known X-rayemitters. We use optical data produced by the Sloan Digital Sky Survey(SDSS) to identify 709 stellar X-ray emitters cataloged in the RASS andfalling within the SDSS Data Release 1 footprint. Most of these arebright stars with coronal X-ray emission unsuitable for SDSSspectroscopy, which is designed for fainter objects (g > 15 [mag]).Instead, we use SDSS photometry, correlations with the Two Micron AllSky Survey and other catalogs, and spectroscopy from the Apache PointObservatory 3.5 m telescope to identify these stellar X-raycounterparts. Our sample of 707 X-ray-emitting F, G, K, and M stars isone of the largest X-ray-selected samples of such stars. We derivedistances to these stars using photometric parallax relationsappropriate for dwarfs on the main sequence, and use these distances tocalculate LX . We also identify a previously unknowncataclysmic variable (CV) as a RASS counterpart. Separately, we usecorrelations of the RASS and the SDSS spectroscopic catalogs of CVs andwhite dwarfs (WDs) to study the properties of these rarer X-ray-emittingstars. We examine the relationship between (fX /fg) and the equivalent width of the Hβ emission line for 46X-ray-emitting CVs and discuss tentative classifications for a subsetbased on these quantities. We identify 17 new X-ray-emitting DA(hydrogen) WDs, of which three are newly identified WDs. We report onfollow-up observations of three candidate cool X-ray-emitting WDs (oneDA and two DB (helium) WDs); we have not confirmed X-ray emission fromthese WDs.Includes observations obtained with the Apache Point Observatory 3.5 mtelescope, which is owned and operated by the Astrophysical ResearchConsortium.

| The Vienna-KPNO search for Doppler-imaging candidate stars. I. A catalog of stellar-activity indicators for 1058 late-type Hipparcos stars
We present the results from a spectroscopic Ca ii H&K survey of 1058late-type stars selected from a color-limited subsample of the Hipparcoscatalog. Out of these 1058 stars, 371 stars were found to showsignificant H&K emission, most of them previously unknown; 23% withstrong emission, 36% with moderate emission, and 41% with weak emission.These spectra are used to determine absolute H&K emission-linefluxes, radial velocities, and equivalent widths of theluminosity-sensitive Sr ii line at 4077 Ä. Red-wavelengthspectroscopic and Strömgren y photometric follow-up observations ofthe 371 stars with H&K emission are used to additionally determinethe absolute Hα -core flux, the lithium abundance from the Li i6708 Å equivalent width, the rotational velocity vsin i, theradial velocity, and the light variations and its periodicity. Thelatter is interpreted as the stellar rotation period due to aninhomogeneous surface brightness distribution. 156 stars were found withphotometric periods between 0.29 and 64 days, 11 additional systemsshowed quasi-periodic variations possibly in excess of ~50 days. Further54 stars had variations but no unique period was found, and four starswere essentially constant. Altogether, 170 new variable stars werediscovered. Additionally, we found 17 new SB1 (plus 16 new candidates)and 19 new SB2 systems, as well as one definite and two possible new SB3systems. Finally, we present a list of 21 stars that we think are mostsuitable candidates for a detailed study with the Doppler-imagingtechnique.
