Scientific paper

The Rosat X-ray astronomy satellite has completed the first all sky X-ray and XUV survey with imaging telescopes. About 60,000 new X-ray and 400 new XUV sources were detected. Preliminary results from the Rosat All Sky X-ray Survey are addressed. The Rosat X-ray Skymap, the positional accuracy obtained for the X-ray sources, general information on their properties, and first results from correlations performed with available catalogs in various energy bands like the radio, infrared, visible, UV, and hard X-rays as well as identifications from optical follow up observations are presented.
