X-rays from emission-line stars in the Herbig-Haro 1 regionWe have observed the region in Orion containing Herbig-Haro 1 as well as a number of young, active stars. This observation shows a similar X-ray morphology to that in the first X-ray imaging observation about 10 years ago. The ROSAT High Resolution Instrument with its approximately arcsecond spatial resolution allows us in most cases to make definite optical identifications of the 0.1-2.4 keV X-ray sources. New identifications with emission-line stars are made, and prior identifications using lower resolution observations are confirmed or corrected. The X-ray emission previously detected from the vicinity of HH-1 is not associated with HH-1 but with a known T Tauri star. The observed relationships among X-ray, optical line, and infrared excess emission do not simply fall into the suggested classifications for T Tauri or T Tauri-like stars. This could be an indication of another X-ray emission region such as accretion disks that add to the emission from the stellar atmospheres.
