				<abstract>
					<para>
     Coronal X-ray emission of the Pleiades stars is investigated, and
     maximum likelihood, integral X-ray luminosity functions are
     computed for Pleiades members in selected color-index ranges. A
     detailed search is conducted for long-term variability in the
     X-ray emission of those stars observed more than once. An overall
     comparison of the survey results with those of previous surveys
     confirms the ubiquity of X-ray emission in the Pleiades cluster
     stars and its higher rate of emission with respect to older
     stars. It is found that the X-ray emission from dA and early dF
     stars cannot be proven to be dissimilar to that of Hyades and
     field stars of the same spectral type. The Pleiades cluster
     members show a real rise of the X-ray luminosity from dA stars to
     early dF stars. X-ray emission for the young, solar-like Pleiades
     stars is about two orders of magnitude more intense than for the
     nearby solar-like stars.</para></abstract>

			<definition>Ribs and Edge Code flag
	<footnote footnoteId="???"><para>number=7</para>
			<para>This column is flagged "Y" if the X-ray luminosity is derived in
          the presence of potential source shadowing. Reco is a ribs and
          edge code, indicating that the source fell on or near the
          detector ribs or edges. The local detect algorithm uses a
          detection cell subdivided into nine central subcells (3x3) with a
          background frame (around the central cell) subdivided into 16
          subcells. The reco value provides an estimate of the number of
          background and detection subcells potentially obscured and is
          nonzero whenever a source could have any of its central or frame
          subcells obscured. However, this approach necessarily employs
          simplifying assumptions regarding the shape and dimensions of the
          ribs, and it neglects spectral dependencies. Consequently,
          although a quantitative attempt is made to correct for such
          effects, the only completely reliable approach is to regard count
          rates for sources with nonzero reco values (flagged "Y" here) as
          indeterminate. See the paper (1990ApJ...348..557M) for more details.

          through the South Atlantic Anomaly, or because of unacceptable

          dead time, a fractional correction for the time during which the
          detector is unable to record events because it is "processing" a
          prior event.
