Scientific paper

A survey of the ultrasoft X-ray sources in the data base of the Einstein Observatory's imaging proportional counter revealed a large number of active galactic nuclei (AGN) that have ultrasoft X-ray components. The survey contains the highest redshift objects for which soft components are known. Findings on the ultrasoft AGN are summarized. The selection criteria and spectral parameters for the AGN are described. Some of the implications of the high-redshift sources for possible emission mechanisms and luminosity-enhancing processes are considered.
