Spectroscopic Binary Orbits Ninth Catalog (Dynamic Version)

The Ninth Catalog of Spectroscopic Binary Orbits (SB9) continues the series of compilations of spectroscopic orbits carried out over the past 35 years by Batten and collaborators, e.g., the 8th SBO Catalog (SB8, <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/V/64">CDS Catalog V/64</a>) of Batten, Fletcher and MacCarthy 1989, Publ. DAO, 17, 1. This catalog is regularly updated. This version of SB9 contains orbits for over three thousand binary systems; notice that the numbers of orbits and binary systems included in this version differ from those in the reference publication, as the latter reflected the 2004 May 1 status of the catalog, when it had 2694 orbits for 2386 binary systems. There is an online version of this catalog, maintained by the authors, which is continuously updated, at <a href="http://sb9.astro.ulb.ac.be/">http://sb9.astro.ulb.ac.be/</a>. This table was created by the HEASARC based on the <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/B/sb9">CDS Catalog B/sb9</a>, using the files main.dat, alias.dat, orbits.dat and notes.txt. The CDS updates it regularly, and this HEASARC version is accordingly updated within a week of such updates. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .

Small Magellanic Cloud XMM-Newton Point Source Catalog

The XMM-Newton survey of the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) yielded complete coverage of the bar and eastern wing in the 0.2-12.0 keV energy band. In addition to the main-field (5.58 deg<sup>2</sup>), available outer fields were included in the catalogue, yielding a total field area of 6.32 deg<sup>2</sup>. This catalog comprises 3,053 unique X-ray point sources and sources with moderate extent that have been reduced from 5,236 individual detections found in 100 observations between April 2000 and April 2010 (the details of these exposures are given in Table B.1 of the reference paper). For 927 sources, there were detections at multiple epochs, with some SMC fields observed up to 36 times. The detected sources have a median position uncertainty of 1.3 arcseconds (1 sigma) and limiting fluxes down to ~1 x 10<sup>-14</sup> erg/s/cm<sup>2</sup> in the 0.2-4.5 keV band, corresponding to X-ray luminosities of ~5 x 10<sup>33</sup> erg/s for sources located in the SMC. Sources have been classified using X-ray hardness ratios, X-ray variability, and their multi-wavelength properties. In their paper, the authors discuss the statistical properties of the detected X-ray sources, like the spatial distribution, X-ray color diagrams, luminosity functions, and time variability. They have identified 49 SMC high-mass X-ray binaries (HMXB), four super-soft X-ray sources (SSS), 34 foreground stars, and 72 active galactic nuclei (AGN) behind the SMC. In addition, they found candidates for SMC HMXBs (45) and faint SSSs (8) as well as AGN (2092) and galaxy clusters (13). Notice that X-ray sources with high extent (>40 arcseconds), e.g. supernova remnants and galaxy clusters, have been previously presented by Haberl et al. (2012, A&A, 545, A128) and are not included in this table. To investigate the spectral behavior of all sources, the authors used hardness ratios HR<sub>i</sub> (i = 1, 2, 3, 4), defined by HR<sub>i</sub> = (R<sub>i+1</sub> - R<sub>i</sub>)/(R<sub>i+1</sub> + R<sub>i</sub>), where R<sub>i</sub> is the count rate in energy band i as defined by: <pre> Band Energy Range 1 0.2-0.5 keV 2 0.5-1.0 keV 3 1.0-2.0 keV 4 2.0-4.5 keV 5 4.5-12. keV </pre> To increase statistics, the authors also calculated average HR_i<sub>s</sub>, combining all available instruments and observations. HR<sub>i</sub> is not given if both rates R<sub>i</sub> and R<sub>i+1</sub> are null or if the 1-sigma uncertainty of Delta(HR<sub>i</sub>) covers the complete HR interval from -1 to +1. To convert an individual count rate R<sub>i</sub> of an energy band i into a setup-independent, observed flux F<sub>i</sub>, the authors calculated energy conversion factors (ECFs) f<sub>i</sub> = R<sub>i</sub>/F<sub>i</sub> , as described in Sect. A.3 of the reference paper. For the calculation, they assumed a universal spectrum for all sources, described by a power-law model with a photon index of 1.7 and a photo-electric foreground absorption by the Galaxy of N<sub>H,Gal</sub> = 6 x 10<sup>20</sup> cm<sup>-2</sup> (average for the SMC main field in the H I map of Dickey & Lockman 1990, ARAA, 28, 215). In addition to the fluxes for each detection, the authors calculated flux upper limits F<sub>UL</sub> for each observation and source, if the source was observed but not detected in an individual observation. As for the initial source detection, they used the emldetect task to fit sources, but kept the source positions fixed at the master positions and accepted all detection likelihoods in order to get an upper limit for the flux. This table was created by the HEASARC in October 2013 based on <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/J/A+A/558/A3">CDS Catalog J/A+A/558/A3</a> file smc_src.dat.

Spitzer Wide-area InfraRed Extragalactic Survey Lockman Hole 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.

ROSAT Hard-Spectrum X-Ray Source Catalog

This table contains a catalog of 147 serendipitous X-ray sources selected to have hard spectra (spectral indices Alpha < 0.5) from a survey of 188 ROSAT fields. Such sources must be the dominant contributors to the X-ray background at faint fluxes. The authors have used Monte Carlo simulations to verify that their technique is very efficient at selecting hard sources: the survey has >= 10 times as much effective area for hard sources as it has for soft sources above a 0.5 - 2 keV flux level of 10<sup>-14</sup> erg cm<sup>-2</sup> s<sup>-1</sup>. The distribution of best-fitting spectral slopes of the hard sources suggests that a typical ROSAT hard source in this survey has a spectral slope Alpha ~ 0. The hard sources have a steep number-flux relation (dN/dS ~ _S<sup>-Gamma</sup>, with a best-fitting value of Gamma = 2.72 +/- 0.12), and make up about 15% of all 0.5 - 2 keV sources with S > 10<sup>-14</sup> erg cm<sup>-2</sup> s<sup>-1</sup>. If their N(S) continues to fainter fluxes, the hard sources will comprise ~ 40% of sources with 5 x 10<sup>-15</sup> < S < 10<sup>-14</sup> erg cm<sup>-2</sup> s<sup>-1</sup>. The population of hard sources can therefore account for the harder average spectra of ROSAT sources with S < 10<sup>-14</sup>erg cm<sup>-2</sup> s<sup>-1</sup>. They probably make a strong contribution to the X-ray background at faint fluxes and could be the solution to the X-ray background spectral paradox. This table was created by the HEASARC in March 2012 based on <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/J/MNRAS/318/1073">CDS Catalog J/MNRAS/318/1073</a> file table2.dat, the ROSAT hard X-ray source catalog.

Master EUV Catalog

The EUV database table is the Extreme Ultraviolet (EUV) Master Catalog and contains a compendium of EUV sources. It is comprised of selected fields from the following HEASARC EUV database tables: <pre> * <a href="/W3Browse/all/euvebsl.html">EUVEBSL</a> - First Extreme UltraViolet Explorer Bright Source List * <a href="/W3Browse/all/euvecat2.html">EUVECAT2</a> - Second Extreme UltraViolet Explorer Source Catalog * <a href="/W3Browse/all/roswfc2re.html">ROSWFC2RE</a> - ROSAT Wide Field Camera 2RE Catalog * <a href="/W3Browse/all/rosatxuv.html">ROSATXUV</a> - ROSAT Wide Field Camera Pointed Phase Catalog of XUV Sources * <a href="/W3Browse/all/euverap1.html">EUVERAP1</a> - First Extreme UltraViolet Explorer Right Angle Program Catalog * <a href="/W3Browse/all/euverap2.html">EUVERAP2</a> - Second Extreme UltraViolet Explorer Right Angle Program Catalog * <a href="/W3Browse/all/euverap3.html">EUVERAP3</a> - Third Extreme UltraViolet Explorer Right Angle Program Catalog * <a href="/W3Browse/all/euvexrtcat.html">EUVEXRTCAT</a> - All-Sky Catalog of Faint EUV Sources </pre> Notice that we have not included EUVECAT1 (First Extreme UltraViolet Explorer Source Catalog) and WFCBSC (ROSAT Wide Field Camera Bright Source Catalog), as these are obsolete catalogs superceded by EUVECAT2 and ROSWFC2RE, respectively. The EUVEBSL database table contains a detailed list of verified bright EUVE sources detected during the survey phase of the EUVE mission (calibration targets are also included). Two distinct surveys, the all-sky and deep surveys, were conducted by the four EUVE telescopes during the first six months of the mission. EUVEBSL contains 356 sources. EUVECAT2 is the 2nd Catalog of EUV objects detected by the Extreme Ultraviolet Explorer (EUVE) and published by Bowyer et al. in 1996 (ApJS, 102, 129). The data include (i) all-sky survey detections from the initial 6-months scanner survey phase, (ii) additional scanner detections made later during specially programmed observations designed to fill in low-exposure sky areas of the initial survey, (iii) sources detected with deep-survey telescope observations along the ecliptic plane, (iv) objects detected by the scanner telescopes during targeted spectroscopy observations, and (v) other observations. Plausible optical, X-ray, radio, and/or UV identifications are available for about 65% of the EUV sources. EUVECAT2 contains 801 sources. ROSWFC2RE is the ROSAT Wide Field Camera 2RE Source Catalog. It contains 479 EUV sources found during the ROSAT all-sky survey of July 1990 to January 1991. The information in this database is based on what has been published by Pye et al. (1995, MNRAS, 274, 1165). It supersedes the earlier WFC Bright Source Catalog (WFCBSC), but we have retained the latter in the EUV database for reasons of completeness The ROSATXUV database table is a catalog of XUV sources (Kreysing H.C., Brunner H., and Staubert, R. 1995, A&AS, 114, 465), extracted from observations by the ROSAT Wide Field Camera during the pointed phase. The 5916 WFC pointed observations that were included are from the calibration and verification phase in June 1990 and from the period of pointed observations from February 9, 1991 to July 15, 1994. The catalog contains 1022 independent source detections corresponding to 4 different filters (S1, S2, P1 and P2) and 328 individual sources, many of which were observed repeatedly. Only ROSATXUV detections in the S1 filter band are included in the EUV table. If there are multiple observations of a single source/position in ROSATXUV, then only one entry for that source will be present in the EUV Master Catalog. The EUVERAP1 database table contains the detections of 114 extreme-ultraviolet (EUV; 58 - 740 Angstrom) sources, of which 99 are new serendipitous sources, based on observations covering approximately 8% of the sky which were made with the imaging telescopes on board the Extreme Ultraviolet Explorer (EUVE) during the Right Angle Program (RAP). These data were obtained using the survey scanners and the Deep Survey instrument during the first year of the spectroscopic guest observer phase of the mission, from January 1993 to January 1994. The data set consists of 162 discrete pointings whose exposure times are typically two orders of magnitude longer than the average exposure times during the EUVE all-sky survey. The EUVERAP2 database table is a catalog of 235 extreme ultraviolet (EUV) sources, of which 169 are new detections, using the EUVE Observatory's Right Angle Program (RAP) data obtained with the A, B and C scanners and the Deep Survey (DS) instrument in the period from January 1994 through November 1998. The EUVE RAP used the all-sky survey telescopes (also known as the "scanners"), which were mounted at right angles to the Deep Survey and Spectrometer (DS/S) instruments, in order to obtain photometric data

South Pole Telescope-Sunyarv-Zeldovich (SPT-SZ) Survey Catalog

This table contains a catalog of galaxy clusters selected via their Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) effect signature from 2500 deg<sup>2</sup> of South Pole Telescope (SPT) data. This work represents the complete sample of clusters detected at high significance in the 2500 deg<sup>2</sup> SPT-SZ survey, which was completed in 2011. A total of 677 (409) cluster candidates are identified above a signal-to-noise threshold xi of 4.5 (5.0). Ground- and space-based optical and near-infrared (NIR) imaging confirms overdensities of similarly colored galaxies in the direction of 516 (or 76%) of the xi > 4.5 candidates and 387 (or 95%) of the xi > 5 candidates; the measured purity is consistent with expectations from simulations. Of these confirmed clusters, 415 were first identified in SPT data, including 251 new discoveries reported in this work. The authors estimate photometric redshifts for all candidates with identified optical and/or NIR counterparts; they additionally report redshifts derived from spectroscopic observations for 141 of these systems. The mass threshold of the catalog is roughly independent of redshift above z ~ 0.25 leading to a sample of massive clusters that extends to high redshift. The median mass of the sample is M<sub>500c</sub>(rho<sub>crit</sub>) ~ 3.5x10<sup>14</sup> M<sub>sun</sub> h<sub>70</sub><sup>-1</sup>, the median redshift is z<sub>med</sub> = 0.55, and the highest-redshift systems are at z > 1.4. The combination of large redshift extent, clean selection, and high typical mass makes this cluster sample of particular interest for cosmological analyses and studies of cluster formation and evolution. The South Pole Telescope (SPT) is a 10m diameter telescope located at the National Science Foundation Amundsen-Scott South Pole station in Antarctica. From 2008 to 2011 the telescope was used to conduct the SPT-SZ survey, a survey of ~ 2500 deg<sup>2</sup> of the southern sky at 95, 150, and 220 GHz. The survey covers a contiguous region from 20h to 7h in Right Ascension and -65 to -40 degrees in Declination (see, e.g., Figure 1 in Story et al. 2013, ApJ, 779, 86) and was mapped to depths of approximately 40, 18, and 70 microK-arcmin at 95, 150, and 220 GHz, respectively. The authors use optical and in some cases NIR imaging (Blanco Telescope, Magellan/Baade, Magellan/Clay, Swope, MPG/ESO, New Technology Telescope, Spitzer, WISE) to confirm candidates as clusters and to obtain redshifts for confirmed systems (see section 4 of the reference paper for more details). They have also used a variety of facilities to obtain spectroscopic observations of the SPT clusters (including VLT/FORS2 & Gemini/GMOS-S). This HEASARC table contains the total of 677 cluster candidates which were identified above a signal-to-noise threshold of xi = 4.5 in the 2500 deg<sup>2</sup> SPT-SZ survey.

ROSAT All-Sky Survey Single FIRST Matches Catalog

This table contains a subset of the results of a correlation of the ROSAT All-Sky Survey (RASS) with the April 1997 release of the VLA 20-cm Faint Images of the Radio Sky at Twenty cm (FIRST: <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/VIII/59">CDS Cat. <VIII/59></a>) Catalog. It focusses on the analysis of the 843 X-ray sources which have unique radio counterparts. The majority of these objects (84%) have optical counterparts on the POSS 1 plates. Approximately 30% have been previously classified and the authors obtain new spectroscopic classifications for 85 sources by comparison with the ongoing FIRST Bright Quasar Survey and 106 additional sources from their own new spectroscopic data. Approximately 51% of the sources are presently classified, and the majority of the unclassified objects are optically faint. The newly classified sources are generally radio weak, exhibiting properties intermediate with previous samples of radio- and X-ray-selected AGN. This also holds for the subsample of 71 BL Lacs which includes many intermediate objects. The 146 quasars show no evidence for a bimodal distribution in their radio-loudness parameter, indicating that the supposed division between radio-quiet and radio-loud AGN may not be real. The X-ray and radio luminosities are correlated over two decades in radio luminosity, spanning the radio-loud and radio-quiet regimes, with radio-quiet quasars showing a linear correlation between the two luminosities. Many of the sources show peculiar or unusual properties which call for more detailed follow-up observations. In their paper (Table 2), the authors also give the X-ray and radio data for the 518 X-ray sources for which more than one radio object is found. Because of the difficulties inherent in identifying optical counterparts to these complex sources, they do not consider these data in the current analysis, and they are not included in the present table (but are available at <a href="http://cdsarc.u-strasbg.fr/ftp/cats/J/A+A/356/445/">http://cdsarc.u-strasbg.fr/ftp/cats/J/A+A/356/445/</a>).

Planck High-Redshift Source Candidates Catalog

The Planck mission, thanks to its large frequency range and all-sky coverage, has a unique potential for systematically detecting the brightest, and rarest, sub-millimeter sources on the sky, including distant objects in the high-redshift Universe traced by their dust emission. A novel method, based on a component-separation procedure using a combination of Planck and IRAS data, has been validated and characterized on numerous simulations, and applied to select the most luminous cold sub-millimeter sources with spectral energy distributions peaking between 353 and 857GHz at 5-arcminute resolution. A total of 2,151 Planck high-z source candidates (the PHZ list) have been detected in the cleanest 26% of the sky, with flux density at 545 GHz above 500 mJy. Embedded in the cosmic infrared background close to the confusion limit, these high-z candidates exhibit colder colors than their surroundings, consistent with redshifts z greater than 2, assuming a dust temperature of T<sub>xgal</sub> = 35 K and a spectral index of beta<sub>xgal</sub> = 1.5. Exhibiting extremely high luminosities, larger than 10<sup>14</sup> L<sub>sun</sub>, the PHZ objects may be made of multiple galaxies or clumps at high redshift, as suggested by a first statistical analysis based on a comparison with number count models. Furthermore, first follow-up observations obtained from optical to sub-millimeter wavelengths, which can be found in companion papers, have confirmed that this list consists of two distinct populations. A small fraction (around 3%) of the sources have been identified as strongly gravitationally lensed star-forming galaxies at redshift 2 to 4, while the vast majority of the PHZ sources appear as overdensities of dusty star-forming galaxies, having colors consistent with being at z > 2, and may be considered as proto-cluster candidates. The PHZ provides an original sample, which is complementary to the Planck Sunyaev-Zeldovich Catalog (PSZ2); by extending the population of virialized massive galaxy clusters detected below z < 1.5 through their SZ signal to a population of sources at z > 1.5, the PHZ may contain the progenitors of today's clusters. Hence the Planck list of high-redshift source candidates opens a new window on the study of the early stages of structure formation, particularly understanding the intensively star-forming phase at high-z. The compact source detection algorithm used herein requires positive detections simultaneously within a 5-arcminute radius in the 545-GHz excess map, and the 857-, 545-, and 353-GHz cleaned maps. It also requires a non-detection in the 100-GHz cleaned maps, which traces emission from synchrotron sources. A detection is then defined as a local maximum of the signal-to-noise ratio (S/N) above a given threshold in each map, with a spatial separation of at least 5 arcminutes being required between two local maxima. A threshold of S/N > 5 is adopted for detections in the 545-GHz excess map, while this is slightly relaxed to S/N > 3 for detections in the cleaned maps because the constraint imposed by the spatial consistency between detections in all three bands is expected to reinforce the robustness of a simultaneous detection. Concerning the 100-GHz band, the authors adopt a similar threshold by requiring the absence of any local maximum with S/N > 3 within a radius of 5 arcminutes. The HEASARC has changed the names of many of the parameters from those given in the original table. In such cases we have listed the original names in parentheses at the end of the parameter descriptions given below. This table was created by the HEASARC in May 2017 based upon the <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/J/A+A/596/A100">CDS Catalog J/A+A/596/A100</a> file phz.dat.

BeppoSAX High-Energy Large Area Survey (HELLAS) X-Ray Source Catalog

The BeppoSAX High Energy Large Area Survey (HELLAS) has surveyed about 85 deg<sup>2</sup> of sky in the 4.5 - 10 keV band down to a flux of 4 - 5 x 10<sup>-14</sup> erg/cm<sup>2</sup>/s using 142 high Galactic latitude (|b| > 20<sup>o</sup>) observations made by the BeppoSAX Medium Energy Concentrator Spectrometer (MECS). The source surface density of 16.9 +/- 6.4 deg<sup>2</sup> at the survey limit corresponds to a resolved fraction of the 5 - 10 keV X-ray background (XRB) of the order of 20-30 per cent. Hardness ratio analysis indicates that the spectra of a substantial fraction of the HELLAS sources (at least one-third) are harder than a alpha<sub>E</sub> = 0.6 power law. This hardness may be caused by large absorbing columns. The hardness ratio analysis also indicates that many HELLAS sources may have a spectrum more complex than a single absorbed power law. A soft component, superimposed on a strongly cut-off power law, is likely to be present in several sources. There is no overlap among the 142 fields used and, wherever possible, multiple observations of the same field have been merged in one single pointing to increase the sensitivity. Fields were selected among public data (such as that of March 1999) and the authors' proprietary data. Fields centered on bright extended sources and bright Galactic sources were excluded from the survey, as were fields close to the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) and M 33. Most of the fields have exposures between 30 and 100 ks, and 20 fields have an exposure higher than 80 ks (see Fig. 1 of reference paper). Sources were detected in images accumulated between 4.5 and 10 keV. Source count rates in four bands (1.3 - 10 keV, total or T; 1.3 - 2.5 keV, low band or L; 2.5 - 4.5 keV, middle band or M; 4.5 - 10 keV, high band or H) were extracted and corrected for the energy-dependent vignetting and for the MECS PSF. The count rates were converted to fluxes using a conversion factor of 7.8 x 10<sup>-11</sup> erg cm<sup>-2</sup> s<sup>-1</sup> (5 - 10 keV flux) per one '3 ECS count' (4.5 - 10 keV) appropriate for a power-law spectrum with alpha<sub>E</sub> = 0:6. The factor is not strongly sensitive to the spectral shape, owing to the narrow band: thus, for alpha<sub>E</sub> = 0.4 and 0.8 it is 8.1 and 7.6 x 10<sup>-11</sup> erg cm<sup>-2</sup> s<sup>-1</sup>, respectively. A conversion factor of 9:9 x 10<sup>-11</sup> erg cm<sup>-2</sup> s<sup>-1</sup> per one '3 MECS count' has been used for sources under the 550 micron (µm) beryllium strongback supporting the MECS window to account for the reduced detector sensitivity.

VLA-COSMOS Large Project 1.4-GHz Source Catalog

The international COSMOS (Cosmic Evolution) survey (Scoville et al. 2007, ApJS, 172, 1) is a panchromatic imaging and spectroscopic survey of a 1.4 degree by 1.4 degree field designed to probe galaxy and SMBH (supermassive black hole) evolution as a function of cosmic environment. One major aspect of the COSMOS survey is the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) Treasury Project (Scoville et al. 2007, ApJS, 172, 38), entailing the largest ever allocation of HST telescope time. The equatorial location of the COSMOS field offers the critical advantage of allowing major observatories from both hemispheres to join forces in this endeavor. State-of-the-art imaging data at all wavelengths (X-ray to centimeter, plus large optical spectroscopic campaigns using the VLT VIMOS and the Magellan IMACS instruments (Lilly et al. 2007; Impey et al. 2007; Trump et al. 2007) have been or are currently being obtained for the COSMOS field. These make the COSMOS field an excellent resource for observational cosmology and galaxy evolution in the important redshift range z ~ 0.5 - 3, a time span covering ~ 75% of the lifetime of the universe. The VLA-COSMOS Large Project produced a catalog of 3643 radio sources found in the 2 square degrees COSMOS field at 1.4 GHz with a signal-to-noise threshold S/N >= 4.5. The observations in the VLA A and C configurations resulted in a resolution of 1.5" by 1.4" and a mean rms noise of ~ 10.5 µJy (µJy) beam<sup>-1</sup> in the central 1 deg<sup>2</sup>, and of 15 uJy in the 2 deg<sup>2</sup> field. Eighty radio sources are clearly extended consisting of multiple components, and most of them appear to be double-lobed radio galaxies. The astrometry of the catalog has been thoroughly tested, and the uncertainty in the relative and absolute astrometry are 130 and < 55 mas, respectively. This table was created by the HEASARC in September 2007 based on the electronic version of Table 3 from the reference paper which was obtained from the ApJ web site.

Candidate Gamma-Ray Blazar Survey Source Catalog

The authors have constructed a uniform all-sky survey of bright blazars, selected primarily by their flat radio spectra, that is designed to provide a large catalog of likely gamma-ray active galactic nuclei (AGNs). The defined sample, the Candidate Gamma-Ray Blazar Survey (CGRaBS) source catalog, has 1625 targets with radio and X-ray properties similar to those of the EGRET blazars, spread uniformly across the |b| > 10 degrees sky. They also report progress toward optical characterization of the sample; of objects with known red magnitude R < 23, 85% have been classified and 81% have measured redshifts. One goal of this program is to focus attention on the most interesting (e.g., high-redshift, high-luminosity, etc.) sources for intensive multi-wavelength study during the observations by the Large Area Telescope (LAT) on the Gamma-Ray Large-Area Space Telescope (GLAST) satellite observatory.

Sloan Digital Sky Survey/XMM-Newton Type1 AGN X-Ray and Radio Properties Catalog

X-ray emission from active galactic nuclei (AGN) is dominated by the accretion disk around a supermassive black hole. The radio luminosity, however, has not such a clear origin except in the most powerful sources where jets are evident. The origin (and even the very existence) of the local bi-modal distribution in radio-loudness is also a debated issue. By analyzing X-ray, optical and radio properties of a large sample of type 1 AGN and quasars (QSOs) up to z > 2, where the bulk of this population resides, the authors aim to explore the interplay between radio and X-ray emission in AGN, in order to further our knowledge on the origin of radio emission, and its relation to accretion. They analyze a large (~800 sources) sample of type 1 AGN and QSOs selected from the 2XMMi XMM-Newton X-ray source catalog, cross-correlated with the SDSS DR7 spectroscopic catalog, covering a redshift range from z ~ 0.3 to z ~ 2.3. Supermassive black hole masses are estimated from the Mg II emission line, bolometric luminosities from the X-ray data, and radio emission or upper limits from the FIRST catalog. Most of the sources accrete close to the Eddington limit and the distribution in radio-loudness does not appear to have a bi-modal behavior. This study confirms that radio-loud AGN are also X-ray loud, with an X-ray-to-optical ratio up to twice that of radio-quiet objects, even excluding the most extreme strongly jetted sources. By analyzing complementary radio-selected control samples, the authors find evidence that these conclusions are not an effect of the X-ray selection, but are likely a property of the dominant QSO population. The authors of this catalog conclude that their findings are best interpreted in a context where radio emission in AGN, with the exception of a minority of beamed sources, arises from very close to the accretion disk and is therefore heavily linked to X-ray emission. They also speculate that the radio-loud/radio-quiet dichotomy might either be an evolutionary effect that developed well after the QSO peak epoch, or an effect of incompleteness in small samples. Basic information and derived properties are presented for the sample of X-ray selected type 1 AGN (as well as for the 11 X-ray undetected type 1 AGN in the "control sample"): coordinates, redshift, X-ray and radio fluxes, optical magnitudes, from the SDSS, 2XMMi, and FIRST catalogs; continuum luminosities at 3000 Angstroms and in the X-ray band, black hole masses, bolometric luminosities, Eddington ratios; for the sources falling in the FIRST field, optical fluxes at 2500 and 4400 Angstroms, X-ray-to-optical index, radio classification, and the ratios between the radio and the UV, optical, and X-ray fluxes.

Chandra Nearby Galaxies Point Source Catalog

The authors have analyzed Chandra ACIS observations of 32 nearby spiral and elliptical galaxies. The properties (e.g., counts in 3 energy bands, hardness ratios and inferred X-ray luminosities) of the 1441 X-ray point sources that were detected in these galaxies are listed in this table. The total point-source X-ray (0.3 - 8.0 keV) luminosity L<sub>XP</sub> is found to be well correlated with the B-band, K-band, and FIR+UV luminosities of spiral host galaxies, and is well correlated with the B-band and K-band luminosities of elliptical galaxies. This suggests an intimate connection between L<sub>XP</sub> and both the old and the young stellar populations, for which K and FIR+UV luminosities are reasonable proxies for the galaxy mass and the star formation rate (SFR).

AT Large Area Survey (ATLAS) ELAIS-S1/SWIRE ID and Classification Catalog

This table contains results from the Australia Telescope Large Area Survey (ATLAS), and consists of sensitive (1 sigma < 30 uJy) 1.4-GHz radio observations of a 3.9 deg<sup>2</sup> field centered on the European Large Area ISO Survey S1 (ELAIS-S1) region, largely coincident with infrared observations of the Spitzer Wide-Area Infrared Extragalactic (SWIRE) Survey. In their paper, the authors describe the observations and calibration, source extraction, and cross-matching to infrared sources. A total of 1366 radio components are identified, corresponding to 1276 distinct radio sources, 1183 of which are matched with infrared sources in the present table. The authors have discovered 31 radio sources with no infrared counterpart at all, adding to the class of Infrared-Faint Radio Sources. The radio observations where made on 27 separate days in 2004 and 2005 with the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA) with a total net integration time of 231 hours, as described in detail in Section 2.1 and Tables 1 and 2 of the reference paper. The observations were made in a mosaic of 20 overlapping pointings, where pointings 1-12 have net integration times of 10.5 hours per pointing and pointings 13-24 have net integration times of 13.5 hours per pointing. All observations were made with two 128-MHz bands, centered on frequencies of 1.34 and 1.43 GHz. After editing, the predicted noise level is 22 uJy in the center of the mosaic. Toward the image edges, the noise level increases due to primary beam attenuation. This table contains the list of 1276 radio sources and their cross-identifications at optical and infrared wavelengths which were given in Table 5 of the reference paper. The authors define a radio 'component' as a region of radio emission which is best defined as a Gaussian. Close radio doubles are very likely to be best represented by two Gaussians and are therefore deemed to consist of two components. Single or multiple components are called a radio source if they are deemed to belong to the same object.

eROSITA Observations Master Catalog

This is the eROSITA Master Catalog which has been created from information supplied to the HEASARC by the <a href="https://erosita.mpe.mpg.de/edr/eROSITAObservations/">eROSITA-DE</a> team. This database table contains the list of observations made by the SRG eROSITA mission. Currently, the German eROSITA Consortium (eROSITA-DE) has made public the observations obtained during the Calibration and Performance Verification (Cal-PV) program for which it holds data exploitation rights. Over one hundred individual pointing and field scans were performed with eROSITA as a prime instrument between mid-September and mid-December 2019 form part of the Cal-PV program. For practical purposes, the eROSITA-DE team has divided the Cal-PV observations into four categories: <pre> Survey fields: These are scan observations of large, contiguous areas of the sky. Magellanic Clouds: These are observations around the Small and Large Magellanic Clouds. Galactic fields: These include observations with |Galactic latitude| < 17 deg. Extragalactic fields: These include observations with |Galactic latitude| > 17 deg. </pre> The HEASARC has created this database table, based on the observations from the shared public data, and added links to associated <a href="https://heasarc.gsfc.nasa.gov/db-perl/W3Browse/w3table.pl?MissionHelp=srg-erosita">eROSITA</a> catalogs and data products, where available. The HEASARC produced this database table based on information obtained from the eROSITA-DE website in July 2023. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .

MIPSGAL 24 micron Catalog

The MIPSGAL Survey is a Legacy Program of the Spitzer Space Telescope that imaged the 24 and 70 micron emission along the inner disk of the Milky Way (Carey et al. 2009). These mid-infrared bands are sensitive to the thermal emission radiated by interstellar dust grains that reside within a broad range of environments such as the envelopes of evolved stars, circumstellar disks and infalling envelopes surrounding young stellar objects, HII regions, supernova remnants, and the extended domains of dense, interstellar clouds. With its primary 24 micron band, MIPSGAL provides a critical wavelength measurement, which links the near infrared data from 2MASS and GLIMPSE to the far-infrared/submillimeter information for both point sources and diffuse emission. The MIPSGAL 24 micron Catalog contains the high reliability subset of MIPSGAL sources.

ROSAT All-Sky Survey/6dF Galaxy Survey Catalog of X-Ray Selected AGN

This table contains a catalog of 3405 X-ray sources from the ROSAT All Sky Survey (RASS) Bright Source Catalog which fall within the area covered by the 6dF Galaxy Survey (6dFGS). The catalog is count-rate limited at 0.05 ct s<sup>-1</sup> in the X-ray and covers the area of sky with Declination < 0 degrees and |b| > 10 degrees. The RASS-6dFGS sample was one of the additional target catalogs of the 6dFGS and as a result the authors obtained optical spectra for 2224 (65 per cent) RASS sources. Of these, 1715 (77%) have reliable redshifts with a median redshift of z = 0.16 (excluding the Galactic sources). For the optically bright sources (b_J <= 17.5) in the observed sample, over 90% have reliable redshifts. The catalog mainly comprises quasi-stellar objects (QSOs) and active galaxies but also includes 238 Galactic sources. Of the sources with reliable redshifts, the majority are type 1 active galactic nuclei (AGN, 69%), while 12% are type 2 AGN, 6% absorption-line galaxies and 13% are stars. The authors also identify a small number of optically faint, very low redshift, compact objects which fall outside the general trend in the b_J - z plane. The RASS-6dFGS catalog complements a number of Northern hemisphere samples, particularly the ROSAT Bright Source Catalogue-NRAO VLA Sky Survey (RBSC-NVSS) sample (Bauer et al. 2000, ApJS, 129, 547), and furthermore, in the same region of sky (-40 degrees < Declination < 0 degrees) reveals an additional 561 sources that were not identified as part of that sample. The authors detect 918 sources (27%) of the RASS-6dFGS sample in the radio using either the 1.4 GHz NVSS or the 843 MHz Sydney University Molonglo Sky Survey (SUMSS) catalogues and find that the detection rate changes with redshift. At redshifts larger than 1 virtually all of these sources have radio counterparts and with a median flux density of 1.15 Jy, they are much stronger than the median flux density of 28.6 mJy for the full sample. The authors attribute this to the fact that the X-ray flux of these objects is being boosted by a jet component, possibly Doppler boosted, that is only present in radio-loud AGN. The RASS-6dFGS sample provides a large set of homogeneous optical spectra ideal for future studies of X-ray emitting AGN.

Planck Catalog of Compact Sources 545GHz Catalog

The Planck Catalogue of Compact Sources (PCCS) is a sample of reliable sources, both Galactic and extragalactic, extracted directly from the Planck nominal maps. The first public version of the PCCS, a component of Planck Data Release 1, is derived from the data acquired by Planck between August 13 2009 and November 26 2010. The PCCS consists of nine lists of sources, extracted independently from each of Planck's nine frequency channels. The source lists contain 24 columns per source at the LFI and HFI bands. The 857 GHz source list has six additional columns which give the flux densities and flux density uncertainties at the three adjacent lower frequencies: 217, 353, and 545 GHz.
