Scientific paper

ANCHORS is a web based archive of all the point sources observed during Chandra observations of regions of star formation. It is 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. For some 50 Chandra fields, yielding 10,000+ sources, the database contains X-ray source properties including position, net count rates, flux, hardness ratios, lightcurve statistics and plots. Spectra are fit using several models, with final parameters and plots recorded in the archive. Multi-wavelength images and data are cross-linked to other archives such as 2MASS and SIMBAD. The pipeline processing ensures consistent analysis techniques for direct comparisons among clusters. Results are presented on-line with sorting, searching, and download functions HTML/XML interface. We will demonstrate the system and solicit users' feedback.
