The well-established X-ray/FIR luminosity correlation suggests that X-ray luminosity may be a star-formation rate indicator. We propose to test this hypothesis with a survey of unbiased galaxies with very well known star-formation rates due to extinction-corrected, integrated Halpha luminosities. The resultant X-ray/SFR correlation will allow X-rays to be used reliably as a star-formation rate indicator. This will allow the high-z detections of star-forming galaxies to be assessed properly. It will also fascilitate the addition of X-ray points to SFR evolution plots using X-ray galaxy luminosity density estimates. Our study will also result in an unbiased X-ray/H-alpha luminosity correlation for galaxies.
