Spitzer Extragalactic Representative Volume Survey ELAIS-N1 4.5 micron Catalog
The "Spitzer Extragalactic Representative Volume Survey" (SERVS) Exploration Science program conducted deep IRAC 3.6 and 4.5 micron observations of five extragalactic fields (ELAIS-N1, Lockman Hole, XMM, ELAIS-S1, and CDFS).Objects in the single band catalogs are not required to have any counterparts in the other band. They are cut at CSNR > 5 and also have the low coverage areas at the edges of the survey omitted (POLY=1), resulting in a single-band reliability flag REL=1. They are thus deeper than the 2-band high reliability catalogs. These should be used if you are matching with a reliable catalog from another band (e.g. near-infrared), and simply want as many matches as possible, or are doing a statistical study.
HEAO 1 A2 Pointing Catalog
The HEAO 1 A-2 Pointing Catalog of High-Energy X-ray Sources is the result of a study of selected targets using the three detectors of the A-2 Experiment. The detectors consisted of the HED (high energy detector) in the range 3-6 KeV, the MED (medium energy detector) in the range 1.5-15 KeV, and the LED (low energy detector) in the range 0.15-3 KeV. The HEAO A-2 Experiment was primarily designed for studying the diffuse X-ray background; however, it was also capable of studying point sources to good sensitivity. Thus, after several months of continuous scanning to survey 95% of the diffuse X-ray sky, the A-2 detectors began individual pointings at selected targets. The point maneuvers began on day 319, 15 November 1977 and ended on day 739, 9 January 1979. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .
ROSAT PSPC M 31 Source Catalog
This catalog is the complete ROSAT PSPC Source List of X-ray sources found in two surveys of M 31 reported by Supper et al. (1997, 2001). These papers reported the results of the analysis of the two ROSAT PSPC surveys of M 31 performed in the summers of 1991 and 1992, respectively. summer 1992. Supper et al. (2001) compare and combine the results from the two surveys. In the first survey, 396 X-ray point sources were detected, and an identical number in the second survey, although this equality is coincidental, as the source lists are different and contain only 239 sources in common. Within the approximately 10.7 square degrees field of view of the second survey, 396 individual X-ray sources were detected, of which 164 sources were new detections. When combined with the first survey, this resulted in a total of 560 X-ray sources in the field of M 31. Their (0.1 keV-2.0 keV) fluxes range from 7 x 10<sup>-15</sup> to 7.6 x 10<sup>-12</sup> erg cm<sup>-2</sup> s<sup>-1</sup>, and of these 560 sources, 55 are tentatively identified with foreground stars, 33 with globular clusters, 16 with supernova remnants, and 10 with radio sources and galaxies (including M 32). A comparison with the results of the Einstein M 31 survey reveals 491 newly detected sources, 11 long-term variable sources, and 7 possible transient sources. Comparing the two ROSAT surveys, Supper et al. come up with 34 long-term variable sources and 8 transient candidates. For the M 31 sources, the observed X-ray luminosities range from 4 x 10<sup>35</sup> to 4 x 10<sup>38</sup> erg s<sup>-1</sup>. The total (0.1 keV-2.0 keV) luminosity of M 31 is (3.4 +/- 0.3) x 10<sup>39</sup> erg s<sup>-1</sup>, distributed approximately equally between the bulge and disk. Within the bulge region, the luminosity of a possible diffuse component combined with faint sources below the detection threshold is (2.0 +/- 0.5) x 10<sup>38</sup> erg s<sup>-1</sup>. An explanation in terms of hot gaseous emission leads to a maximum total gas mass of (1.0 +/- 0.3) x 10<sup>6</sup> solar masses. The conversion of PSPC count rates into X-ray fluxes depends on the assumed spectral shape. For M 31-sources, a power law with photon index of -2.0 and an intervening column density pf 9 x 10<sup>20</sup> H atoms cm<sup>-2</sup> may be used, leading to the conversion factor of 1 ct/ksec = 3.00 x 10<sup>-14</sup> erg cm<sup>-2</sup> s<sup>-1</sup> in the 0.1-2.0 keV broad band. For foreground stars, the application of this conversion factor leads to an over-estimate of the fluxes. This online catalog was created by the HEASARC in October 2001 based on machine-readable tables obtained from the ADC/CDS data centers (their catalog J/A+A/373/63, and table table6.dat).

C2D High Reliability CORES Catalog
The Cores to Disks (C2D) Spitzer Legacy Program used all three Spitzer instruments (IRAC, MIPS, and IRS) to observe sources that span the evolutionary sequence from molecular cores to protoplanetary disks, encompassing a wide range of cloud masses, stellar masses, and star-forming environments. In addition to targeting about 150 known compact cores, it surveyed with IRAC and MIPS (3.6-70 mum) the entire areas of five of the nearest large molecular clouds for new candidate protostars and substellar objects as faint as 0.001 solar luminosities. C2D observed with IRAC and MIPS about 190 systems likely to be in the early stages of planetary system formation (ages up to about 10 Myr), probing the evolution of the circumstellar dust, the raw material for planetary cores.The High Reliability CORES Catalog provides the most reliable list of sources in the C2D CORES fields (82 small cloud cores). It is derived from the Full Catalog but requires good signal-to-noise detection in some bands.
Spitzer Deep Wide-Field Survey 5.8 micron Combined Catalog
The Spitzer Deep, Wide-Field Survey (SDWFS) is a four-epoch infrared survey of 10 square degrees in the Boötes field of the NOAO Deep Wide-Field Survey using the IRAC instrument on the Spitzer Space Telescope. SDWFS, a Spitzer Cycle 4 Legacy project, occupies a unique position in the area-depth survey space defined by other Spitzer surveys. The four epochs that make up SDWFS permit - for the first time - the selection of infrared-variable and high proper motion objects over a wide field on timescales of years. Because of its large survey volume, SDWFS is sensitive to galaxies out to z ~ 3 with relatively little impact from cosmic variance for all but the richest systems. The SDWFS data sets will thus be especially useful for characterizing galaxy evolution beyond z ~ 1.5.The delivery consists of four band-matched catalogs for each of the four epochs and for the total SDWFS coadd data, a total of 20 catalogs. Vega magnitudes are reported for each IRAC band: 3.6, 4.5, 5.8, and 8 microns. Each source was measured three ways: 4 arcsec diameter aperture, 6 arcsec diameter aperture, and Kron radius aperture (MAG_AUTO in SExtractor). Source coordinates correspond to 2MASS catalog positions to within 0.2 arcsec. The tabulated uncertainties are twice the SExtractor (statistical only) uncertainties as an attempt to account for systematic uncertainties.
COSMOS Photometry Catalog January 2006
COSMOS is an astronomical survey designed to probe the formation and evolution of galaxies as a function of cosmic time (redshift) and large scale structural environment. The survey covers a 2 square degree equatorial field with imaging by most of the major space-based telescopes (Hubble, Spitzer, GALEX, XMM, Chandra) and a number of large ground based telescopes (Subaru, VLA, ESO-VLT, UKIRT, NOAO, CFHT, and others). Over 2 million galaxies are detected, spanning 75% of the age of the universe.This is an I band selected multi-color catalog for 2 square degrees centered on the COSMOS field at 10:00:28.6, +02:12:21. A detailed description of the catalog is given in Capak et. al. (2007) and it is recomended that you read this paper before using the catalog.
Spitzer Deep Wide-Field Survey 8 micron Epoch 3 Catalog
The Spitzer Deep, Wide-Field Survey (SDWFS) is a four-epoch infrared survey of 10 square degrees in the Boötes field of the NOAO Deep Wide-Field Survey using the IRAC instrument on the Spitzer Space Telescope.

Planck Catalog of 70-GHz Compact Sources (PCCS) Release 2
Planck was a European Space Agency (ESA) mission, with significant contributions from the National Aeronautics and Space Agency (NASA). It was the third generation of space-based cosmic microwave background experiments, after the Cosmic Background Explorer (COBE) and the Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP). Planck was launched on 14 May 2009 on an Ariane 5 rocket from Kourou, French Guiana. Following a cruise to the Earth-Sun L2 Lagrange point, cooling and in orbit checkout, Planck initiated the First Light Survey on 12 August 2009. Planck then continuously measured the intensity of the sky over a range of frequencies from 30 to 857 GHz (wavelengths of 1 cm to 350 micron) with spatial resolutions ranging from about 33 to 5 arcminutes, respectively. The Low Frequency Instrument (LFI) on Planck provided temperature and polarization information using radiometers which operated between 30 and 70 GHz. The High Frequency Instrument (HFI) used pairs of polarization-sensitive bolometers at each of four frequencies between 100 and 353 GHz but did not measure polarization information in the two upper HFI bands at 545 and 857 GHz. The lowest Planck frequencies overlapped with WMAP, and the highest frequencies extended far into the submillimeter in order to improve separation between Galactic foregrounds and the cosmic microwave background (CMB). By extending to wavelengths longer than those at which the Infrared Astronomical Satellite (IRAS) operated, Planck provided an unprecedented window into dust emission at far-infrared and submillimeter wavelengths. The Second Planck Catalogue of Compact Sources is a list of discrete objects detected in single-frequency maps from the full duration of the Planck mission and supersedes previous versions. It consists of compact sources, both Galactic and extragalactic, detected over the entire sky. Compact sources detected in the lower frequency channels are assigned to the PCCS2, while at higher frequencies they are assigned to one of two subcatalogs, the PCCS2 or PCCS2E, depending on their location on the sky. The first of these (PCCS2) covers most of the sky and allows the user to produce subsamples at higher reliabilities than the target 80% integral reliability of the catalog. The second (PCCS2E) contains sources detected in sky regions where the diffuse emission makes it difficult to quantify the reliability of the detections. Both the PCCS2 and PCCS2E include polarization measurements, in the form of polarized flux densities, or upper limits, and orientation angles for all seven polarization-sensitive Planck channels. The improved data-processing of the full-mission maps and their reduced noise levels allow the authors to increase the number of objects in the catalog, improving its completeness for the target 80% reliability as compared with the previous versions, the PCCS and the Early Release Compact Source Catalogue (ERCSC). The Low Frequency Instrument (LFI) Data Processing Center (DPC) produced the 30, 44, and 70 GHz maps after the completion of eight full surveys (spanning the period from 12 August 2009 to 3 August 2013). In addition, special LFI maps covering the period 1 April 2013 to 30 June 2013 were produced in order to compare the Planck flux-density scales with those of the Very Large Array and the Australia Telescope Compact Array, by performing simultaneous observations of a sample of sources over that period. The High Frequency Instrument (HFI) DPC produced the 100-, 143-, 217-, 353-, 545-, and 857-GHz maps after five full surveys (from 2009 August 12 to 2012 January 11). As in the PCCS, the PCCS2 provides four different measures of the flux density for each source. They are determined by the source detection algorithm (DETFLUX), aperture photometry (APERFLUX), point spread function fitting (PSFFLUX), and Gaussian fitting (GAUFLUX). Only the first is obtained from the filtered maps; the other measures are estimated from the full-sky maps at the positions of the sources. The source detection algorithm photometry, the aperture photometry, and the point spread function (PSF) fitting use the Planck band-average effective beams, calculated with FEBeCoP (Fast Effective Beam Convolution in Pixel space). Note that only the PSF fitting algorithm takes into account the variation of the PSF with position on the sky. The PCCS2 has been produced from the Planck full-mission maps (eight sky surveys in the LFI and five sky surveys in the HFI), and therefore supersedes the previous catalogs (for the PCCS only 1.5 surveys were analyzed). It also includes the latest calibration and beam information, and the authors have improved some of the algorithms used to measure the photometry of the sources. This table contains the PCCS Public Release 2 table of sources detected at 70 GHz. Where the HEASARC parameter names differ from those used in the original table, the original names are listed parenthetically in upper case at the end of the parameter description. This table w
Kepler K2 Ecliptic Plane Input Catalog
Launched in 2009, the Kepler Mission is surveying a region of our galaxy to determine what fraction of stars in our galaxy have planets and measure the size distribution of those exoplanets. Although Kepler completed its primary mission to determine the fraction of stars that have planets in 2013, it is continuing the search, using a more limited survey mode, under the new name K2. The K2 Ecliptic Plane Input Catalog is the primary source of information about objects observed as potential targets for the K2 mission, as the Kepler Input Catalog was used for the original Kepler mission.
CRATES Flat-Spectrum Radio Source Catalog
The authors have assembled an 8.4 GHz survey of bright, flat-spectrum (alpha > -0.5) radio sources with nearly uniform extragalactic (|b| > 10 degrees) coverage for sources brighter than a 4.8 GHz flux density S_4.8GHz = 65 mJy. The catalog is assembled from existing observations (especially the Cosmic Lens All-Sky Survey, CLASS, and the Wright et al. PMN-CA survey), augmented by reprocessing of archival VLA and ATCA data and by new observations to fill in coverage gaps. The authors refer to this program as CRATES, the Combined Radio All-Sky Targeted Eight-GHz Survey. The resulting catalog provides precise positions, subarcsecond structures, and spectral indices for some 11,000 sources. The authors describe the morphology and spectral index distribution of the sample and comment on the survey's power to select several classes of interesting sources, especially high-energy blazars. Comparison of CRATES with other high-frequency surveys also provides unique opportunities for identification of high-power radio sources. This table contains 14467 entries, where each entry corresponds to an 8.4-GHz counterpart source (or absence thereof) to one of 11,131 4.8-GHz sources. The number of entries exceeds the number of 4.8-GHz sources because there are many cases in which there are multiple (from 2 - 20) 8.4-GHz counterparts to a single 4.8-GHz source. There are also 762 entries in which no 8.4-GHz counterpart was detected (morph_type = 'N'). This table was created by the HEASARC in August 2007 based on the electronic version of Table 5 obtained from the electronic ApJ web site. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .
NGC 4472 Chandra X-Ray Point Source Catalog
The Chandra X-Ray Point Source Catalog of the giant elliptical galaxy NGC 4472 contains the results of a Chandra ACIS-S/Hubble Space Telescope (HST) study of the point sources of this Virgo Cluster galaxy. The authors ran WAVDETECT from the CIAO 2.2 software package using wavelet scales from 1 to 16 pixels spaced by factors of 2, setting a false-source probability detection threshold of 10<sup>-6</sup>, which should yield an expectation value of slightly less than one false source over the entire ACIS-S chip. They identify 144 X-ray point sources outside the nuclear region, 72 of which are located within the HST fields. An additional 3 sources are within 8" of the center of the galaxy and appear to be associated either with a weak active galactic nucleus or with brightness enhancements in the hot interstellar gas. One additional source (not included in this table) appears to be a spurious detection, as WAVDETECT assigns it a count rate of 1.5 counts, and visual inspection fails to find evidence of a source at that location. The optical data show 1102 sources whose half-light radii are small enough to be globular cluster candidates, 829 of which also have colors consistent with being globular clusters (with only four in the restricted central 10" region). 30 X-ray sources within 0.7" of an optical source with optical colors consistent with being globular clusters were found. Two additional sources show optical colors outside the globular cluster color range and are likely to be either foreground or background objects. The thirty globular cluster matches are likely to be low-mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs) associated with the globular clusters, while ~ 42 of the X-ray sources have no optical counterparts to V <~ 25 and I <~ 24, indicating that they are likely to be predominantly LMXBs in the field star population with a small amount of possible contamination from background active galactic nuclei. Thus approximately 40% of the X-ray sources are in globular clusters and ~ 4% of the globular clusters contain X-ray sources. This HEASARC table contains the X-ray data for the above-mentioned 147 detected X-ray sources, and the correlative optical data for the 30 optical counterparts which have colors consistent with being globular clusters. It does not contain the data from the full list of optical sources which were given in Table 2 of the reference paper. This table was created by the HEASARC in May 2007 based on CDS table J/ApJ/586/814 files table1.dat and table3.dat. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .
Spitzer Wide-area InfraRed Extragalactic Survey CDFS MIPS 70 micron Catalog
The Spitzer Wide-area InfraRed Extragalactic survey (SWIRE), the largest Spitzer Legacy program, is a wide-area, imaging survey to trace the evolution of dusty, star-forming galaxies, evolved stellar populations, and AGN as a function of environment, from redshifts z~3 to the current epoch. SWIRE surveys 6 high-latitude fields, totaling ~50 sq. deg. in all 7 Spitzer bands: 3.6, 4.5, 5.8, and 8 microns with IRAC and 24, 70, and 160 microns with MIPS (Lonsdale et al. 2003). The SWIRE Legacy Extragalactic Source Catalogs will eventually contain in excess of 2 million IR-selected galaxies, from those dominated by the light of stellar populations detected primarily by IRAC, to starbursts, ultra-luminous infrared galaxies and AGN detected also by MIPS.
SDSS NBCKDE Catalog of Photometrically Selected Quasar Candidates
This table contains a catalog of 1,015,082 quasar candidates selected from the photometric imaging data of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) using a non-parametric Bayesian classification kernel density estimator (NBC-KDE). It excludes 157,075 initial candidates that were culled as known or likely contaminants. The objects are all point sources to a limiting magnitude of i = 21.3 from 8417 deg<sup>2</sup> of imaging from SDSS Data Release 6 (DR6). This sample extends the previous catalog (Paper I: Richards et al. 2004, ApJS, 155, 257) by using the latest SDSS public release data and probing both ultraviolet (UV)-excess and high-redshift quasars. While the addition of high-redshift candidates reduces the overall efficiency (quasars:quasar candidates) of the catalog to ~80%, it is expected to contain no fewer than 850,000 bona fide quasars, which is ~8 times the number of the previous sample and ~10 times the size of the largest spectroscopic quasar catalog. Cross-matching between this photometric catalog and spectroscopic quasar catalogs from both the SDSS and 2dF survey yields 88,879 spectroscopically confirmed quasars. For judicious selection of the most robust UV-excess sources (~500,000 objects in all), the efficiency is nearly 97 - more than sufficient for detailed statistical analyses. The catalog's completeness to type 1 (broad-line) quasars is expected to be no worse than 70%, with most missing objects occurring at z < 0.7 and 2.5 < z < 3.0. In addition to classification information, the authors provide photometric redshift estimates (typically good to Delta(z) +/- 0.3 [2-sigma]) and cross-matching with radio, X-ray, and proper-motion catalogs. Finally, the authors have considered the catalog's utility for determining the optical luminosity function of quasars and are able to confirm the flattening of the bright-end slope of the quasar luminosity function at z ~ 4 as compared to z ~ 2. Much more information on the SDSS is available at the project's web site at <a href="http://www.sdss.org/">http://www.sdss.org/</a>.

HerMES 350 micron StarFinder Catalog
The Herschel Multi-tiered Extragalactic Survey (HerMES) is a legacy programme (KPGT_soliver1) designed to map a set of nested fields totalling 380 sq. deg. Fields range in size from 0.01 to 20 sq. deg., using SPIRE at 250, 350 and 500 microns. These bands cover the peak of the redshifted thermal spectral energy distribution from interstellar dust and thus capture the reprocessed optical and ultraviolet radiation from star formation that has been absorbed by dust, and are critical for forming a complete multiwavelength understanding of galaxy formation and evolution.
Planck ERCSC Bandmerged Catalog
The Planck Early Release Compact Source Catalogue (ERCSC) includes nine lists of highly reliable sources, individually extracted at each of the nine Planck frequency channels. To facilitate the study of the Planck sources, especially their spectral behaviour across the radio/infrared frequencies, Chen et al. (2016) provide a `bandmerged' catalogue of the ERCSC sources. This catalogue consists of 15,191 entries, with 79 sources detected in all nine frequency channels of Planck and 6818 sources detected in only one channel.
LOFAR 3C295 Field 62-MHz Source Catalog
This table contains the source list from Low Frequency Array (LOFAR) Low Band observations of the 3C 295 field at 62 MHz. The images of this field and the Bootes field made at 62 MHz reach a noise level of 5 mJy beam<sup>-1</sup>, making them the deepest images ever obtained at this frequency. In total, the authors detect 329 sources in the 3C 295 62-MHz field image, covering an area of 17.0 square degrees out to a primary-beam attenuation factor of 0.4. From the observations, the authors derive Euclidean-normalized differential source counts. The 62-MHz source counts agree with previous GMRT 153 MHz and Very Large Array 74 MHz differential source counts, scaling with a spectral index of -0.7. The authors find that a spectral index scaling of -0.5 is required to match up the LOFAR 34 MHz source counts. This result is also in agreement with source counts from the 38 MHz 8C survey, indicating that the average spectral index of radio sources flattens toward lower frequencies. The authors also find evidence for spectral flattening using the individual flux measurements of sources between 34 and 1400 MHz and by calculating the spectral index averaged over the source population. To select ultra-steep spectrum (alpha < -1.1) radio sources that could be associated with massive high-redshift radio galaxies, the authors compute spectral indices between 62 MHz, 153 MHz, and 1.4 GHz for sources in the Bootes field. They cross-correlate these radio sources with optical and infrared catalogs and fit the spectral energy distribution to obtain photometric redshifts. They find that most of these ultra-steep spectrum sources are located in the 0.7 <~ z <~ 2.5 range. The Bootes and 3C 295 fields were simultaneously observed on 2012 April 12 as part of a multi-beam observation with the LOFAR LBA stations. The idea behind the multi-beam setup was to use the 3C 295 observations as a calibrator field to transfer the gain amplitudes to the (target) Bootes field. The pointing center of the 3C 295 field was J2000.0 RA, Dec = 14<sup>h</sup> 11<sup>m</sup> 20.9<sup>s</sup>, +52<sup>o</sup> 13' 55". The total integration time on both fields was 10.25 hr. The observing band for the 3C 295 field 62-MHz observations was 54 - 70 MHz, was centered at 62 MHz, with a full coverage bandwidth of 16 MHz. The synthesized beam for this observation had dimensions of 29 arcseconds x 18 arcseconds. An overview of the observations is given in Table 1 of the reference paper, and an overview of the image characteristics in Table 2 of the reference paper. This table was created by the HEASARC in January 2015 based on some of the contents of the machine-readable version of Table 3 from the reference paper, namely the 329 entries listing sources in the 3C 295 field detected at 62 MHz. The remaining entries in this table listing the sources detected in the Bootes field at a frequency of 62 MHz. and the sources detected in the 3C295 field at frequencies of 34 and 46 MHz, are available as the HEASARC tables LOFARBF62M, LOF3C29534 and LOF3C29546, respectively.

WISE All-Sky Source Catalog
NASA's Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE; Wright et al. 2010) mapped the sky at 3.4, 4.6, 12, and 22 μm (W1, W2, W3, W4) in 2010 with an angular resolution of 6.1", 6.4", 6.5", & 12.0" in the four bands. WISE achieved 5σ point source sensitivities better than 0.08, 0.11, 1 and 6 mJy in unconfused regions on the ecliptic in the four bands. Sensitivity improves toward the ecliptic poles due to denser coverage and lower zodiacal background.The All-Sky Release includes all data taken during the WISE full cryogenic mission phase, 7 January 2010 to 6 August 2010, that were processed with improved calibrations and reduction algorithms. Release data products include an Atlas of 18,240 match-filtered, calibrated and coadded image sets, a Source Catalog containing positional and photometric information for over 563 million objects detected on the WISE images, and an Explanatory Supplement that is a guide to the format, content, characteristics and cautionary notes for the WISE All-Sky Release products.
Australia Telescope 20-GHz (AT20G) High-Angular Resolution Catalog
This table contains the high-angular-resolution catalog for the Australia Telescope 20-GHz (AT20G) survey, using the high-angular-resolution 6-km antenna data at the baselines of ~4500 m of the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA). The authors have used the data to produce the visibility catalog that separates the compact active galactic nuclei (AGNs) from the extended radio sources at the 0.15-arcsecond angular scale, corresponding to the linear size scale of 1 kpc at redshifts higher than 0.7. They find the radio population at 20 GHz to be dominated by compact AGNs constituting 77% of the total sources in the AT20G. In the paper, they introduce the visibility-spectra diagnostic plot, produced using the AT20G cross-matches with lower frequency radio surveys at 1 GHz [the NRAO VLA Sky Survey (NVSS: Condon et al. 1998, AJ, 115, 1693) and the Sydney University Molonglo Sky Survey (SUMSS: Mauch et al. 2003, MNRAS, 342, 1117)], that separates the 20-GHz population into distinct sub-populations of the compact AGNs, the compact steep-spectrum (CSS) sources, the extended AGN-powered sources and extended flat-spectrum sources. The extended flat-spectrum sources include a local thermal emitting population of high-latitude planetary nebulae and also gravitational lens and binary black hole candidates among the AGNs. The authors find a smooth transition in properties between the CSS sources and the AGN populations. The visibility catalog, together with the main AT20G survey, provides an estimate of angular size scales for sources in the AT20G and an estimate of the flux arising from central cores of extended radio sources. The identification of the compact AGNs in the AT20G survey provides high-quality calibrators for high-frequency radio telescope arrays and very large baseline interferometry observations. This table was created by the HEASARC in December 2013 based on machine-readable versions of Tables 2 and 3 from the reference paper which were obtained from the MNRAS web site.

Centaurus A Galaxy Chandra X-Ray Point Source Catalog
This table contains the results from two Chandra X-ray Observatory observations of the X-ray point source population in the nearby radio galaxy Centaurus A (NGC 5128). Using a wavelet decomposition detection algorithm, 246 individual point sources are detected above a limiting luminosity of ~ 2 * 10<sup>36</sup> ergs/s, 82 of which are detected in both data sets where the fields of view overlap. Thirty-eight sources were detected in only one observation but were within the field of view of both pointings, implying considerable variability. Eight foreground stars were identified in these observations, and nine of the sources were identified with known globular clusters in Centaurus A. All previously observed ROSAT sources within our field of view were detected. The faintest source in this table has 5 counts, which corresponds to a limiting luminosity of ~2.2 x 10<sup>36</sup> erg/s at the center of the field of view. The two observations of Cen A were made with the ACIS-I array (observation IDs were 00316 and 00962) on 1999 December 5 and 2000 May 17, with 35.9 36.5 ks exposures, respectively.

VLA M 31 325-MHz Source Catalog
This table contains some of the results from a 325-MHz radio survey of M 31, conducted with the A configuration of the Very Large Array. The survey covered an area of 7.6 square degrees, and a total of 405 radio sources between <~ 6" and 170" in extent were mapped with a resolution of 6" and a 1-sigma sensitivity of ~ 0.6mJy/beam. For each source, its morphological class, major axis theta<sub>M</sub>, minor axis theta<sub>m</sub>, position angle theta<sub>PA</sub>, peak flux I, integrated flux density S, spectral index alpha, and spectral curvature parameter {phi were calculated. A comparison of the flux and radial distribution - both in the plane of the sky and in the plane of M 31 - of these sources with those of the XMM-Newton Large-Scale Structure Survey and the Westerbork Northern Sky Survey revealed that a vast majority of sources detected are background radio galaxies. As a result of this analysis, the authors expect that only a few sources are intrinsic to M 31. This study is based on a 5 hr (4 hr on-source) observation of M 31 conducted on 2000 December 15 with the VLA in A configuration. The procedures used to generate the source list and the source properties (essentially making use of the MIRIAD task SFIND) are discussed in Sections 2.2.2 and 2.3 of the reference paper, respectively. This table was created by the HEASARC in September 2014 based on <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/J/ApJS/155/89">CDS Catalog J/ApJS/155/89</a> file table3.dat, the GLG (Gelfand, Lazio, Gaensler) source list.
