Abstract:
    The 120000 X-ray sources detected in the RASS II processing of the
    ROSAT All-Sky Survey are correlated with the 14315 IRAS galaxies
    selected from the IRAS Point Source Catalogue: 372 IRAS galaxies show
    X-ray emission within a distance of 100 arcsec from the infrared
    position. By inspecting the structure of the X-ray emission in
    overlays on optical images we quantify the likelihood that the X-rays
    originate from the IRAS galaxy. For 197 objects the soft X-ray
    emission is very likely associated with the IRAS galaxy. Their soft
    X-ray properties are determined and compared with their far-infrared
    emission.
