Abstract
Methods for determining the frequency distribution function of optical flares have been developed and successfully applied in statistical studies of flare stars. X-ray observations of flare stars provide a basis for extending the use of these methods to statistical studies of X-ray flares of young stellar objects. This article gives a brief description of methods which can be used for determining the frequency distribution of the X-ray flares of young stellar objects. The corresponding function is determined for a sample of 195 low-mass young stellar objects in the cloud L1688, which forms part of the complex of dark clouds ρ Oph. It is found to have an exponential form.
