X-rays turned out rather unexpectedly to be of fundamental importance in studying, and especially in discovering, pre-main sequence stars. The bulk of the data we now have comes from observations using the Einstein satellite, operating in the imaging mode between ~0.4 to ~4 keV (for reviews, see, e.g., Feigelson 1984, Feigelson, Giampapa, and Vrba 1990); because many of the detected sources turned out to suffer a relatively large absorption (Av up to several magnitudes, see below), EXOSAT, sensitive to softer X rays, unfortunately proved to be of little use.
