Scientific paper

Cross-correlations are established between 14,708 selected IRAS sources and the ROSAT All Sky Survey X-ray sources. The resulting catalog of 244 IRAS galaxies positionally coincident with ROSAT X-ray sources is presented. For 222 of them, optical counterparts could be identified by a comparison with the NASA/IPAC Extragalactic Database. An unexpected result was the discovery of several spiral galaxies with luminosities up to 10 exp 43 erg/s, well above those found with the Einstein satellite.
