Abstract:
    Extensive survey observations  were carried  out for  H-alpha emission
    stars in six Kiso  Areas in  the Orion  region. The  observations were
    made using mainly  the Kiso  Schmidt telescope,  and partly  using the
    CTIO Curtis  Schmidt  telescope.  Our  surveys  extends  the  limiting
    magnitude  to V=17.5 over an area of 150 square degrees, and the total
    number of  detected H-alpha  emission stars  were 1157.  The celestial
    coordinates and the V magnitudes  were  measured  along  with  an  eye
    estimation  of the  H-alpha intensities.  The identification  from the
    previous observations were also  made.  The  brightness  distribution,
    which   is  peaked  around  V=15,  suggests  that  they  are  probable
    candidates of T Tauri-type stars.

Note (2): For A0904 and A0976, at three and two epochs of observations,
    respectively. The scale of emission intensity is given by the six
    grades of 5 (very strong), 4 (strong), 3 (medium), 2 (weak), 1 (very
    weak), 0 (absent or doubtful), and 9 means that it lies out of area
    on the CTIO plates.
Note (3): "99.9" indicates unreliable magnitude measurement by several
    causes, such as unseparated double star image, saturated bright star
    image, contamination by nebulosities.
