Scientific paper

Coordinates, finding charts, photometry, and spectroscopy are presented for 55 X-ray selected QSOs. The selection technique, optical identification of X-ray sources observed serendipitously by the Einstein Observatory was used to find QSOs projected near bright galaxies, pairs of QSOs with similar redshifts; and low-redshift QSOs (z less than 0.5) which are well suited for imaging. Very luminous QSOs of more than 10 to the 46th ergs/s, and a very-high redshift X-ray-selected object were also found. It is suggested that most efforts to identify optically faint QSO counterparts to X-ray sources may yield intrinsically less luminous objects at redshifts less than 1 due to the weak influence of the limiting magnitude on the mean redshift of the sample. A complete list of the QSOs is given.
