Scientific paper

Unbiased and complete samples of pre-main sequence stars in star forming regions are essential for determining the initial mass function, star formation history and efficiency of clouds, magnetic activity evolution, and the longevities of circumstellar disks (and thereby timescales for planet formation). Infrared samples select preferentially stars with hot disks while X-ray surveys are unbiased in this respect. The nearby, rich Chamaeleon I-North star forming region offers a superb opportunity to detect several dozen pre-main sequence stars and brown dwarfs down to extremely low masses in a single Chandra field to address these issues.
