Scientific paper

We report on the discovery of hundreds of new T Tauri stars (TTS) in several star forming regions like Taurus-Auriga and Orion. Our target selection for ground-based optical follow-up observations of X-ray sources is based on the large sample of ROSAT All-Sky Survey sources. Most of the newly discovered TTS are weak-line TTS, one of their main characteristics is strong X-ray emission. Based on the spatially complete ROSAT All-Sky Survey, we can confirm that weak-line TTS outnumber classical TTS by a factor between 3 and 10.
