Scientific paper

ANCHORS is an archive of Chandra observations of regions of star formation. X-Atlas is a database of all stellar observations made with Chandra's High Energy Transmission Grating (HETG). Both catalogs contain uniformily reduced data products including count rates, fluxes, hardness ratios, lightcurves, and low and high resolution spectral fits to several models. They are designed to aid both the X-ray astronomer with a desire to compare X-ray datasets and the star formation astronomer wishing to compare stars across the spectrum. Multi-wavelength images and data are cross-linked to other resources such as 2MASS and SIMBAD. Results are easily accessible, searchable, and downloadable online. Virtual Observatory interfaces are in place for advanced searches and cross-matching for both catalogues. We will demonstrate the systems, examine scientific pilot studies using the archive, and solicit users' feedback. These projects are supported by Chandra grants GO5-6002A, GO5-6006, GO5-6006A and NASA contract NAS8-39073.
