Low-mass pre-main-sequence stars are often strong X-ray emitters. There is a clear relationship between rotation and X-ray activity in older low-mass stars, but exactly when this relationship is established is unclear. Most if not all young low-mass stars form with circumstellar disks. Despite the logical suggestion that circumstellar matter should influence X-ray flux from young stars, there is mixed evidence in the literature of any correlation between circumstellar disks and X-rays. We have obtained Chandra X-ray data of two fields in the Orion Flanking Fields ( 3 Myr) and two fields in NGC 2264 ( 5 Myr). In this poster, we examine whether or not there is any correlations between disks, rotation, and X-rays in these young clusters.
