Observations of Double Stars. XVIII.
Micrometer observations of 1350 pairs in 1995-1997 are listed.

Micrometer observations of double stars and new pairs. XII
Measurements of 2132 pairs and 103 double stars, obtained in both theNorthern and Southern Hemispheres in the period June 1982 to September1984, are listed in a table. The observations were carried out using theSwarthmore College 61-cm refractor, and the 100 and 91 cm telescopes ofthe Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory. Corrections to the IDScatalog (1961 version) are given for some of the fainter stars in thesurvey.

A magnitude limited stellar X-ray survey and the F star X-ray luminosity function
An X-ray survey has been conducted of stars brighter than visualmagnitude 8.5 that have serendipitously fallen into the fields of viewof the Imaging Proportional Counter of the Einstein Observatory. Thesurvey includes 227 separate 1 x 1 deg fields, containing 274 stars witha visual magnitude of no more than 8.5 and covering a wide range ofspectral types and luminosity classes. X-ray emission was detected from33 stars, and upper limits have been determined for the remainder of thesample. F type stars dominate the detected sample, and most of these areshown to be dwarfs. An X-ray luminosity function for dF stars has beendeduced, and reveals that the average 0.2-4.0 keV luminosity of thesestars is around 10 to the 29th erg/sec. Constraints have been placed onthe high luminosity tails and medians of the X-ray luminosity functionsfor other types of stars.
