ROSAT PSPC 400 Square Degree Galaxy Cluster Catalog
This is a catalog of galaxy clusters detected in a new ROSAT PSPC survey. The survey is optimized to sample, at high redshifts, the mass range corresponding to T > 5 keV clusters at z = 0. Technically, our survey is the extension of the 160 square degree survey (160d, the HEASARC Browse table called ROSGALCLUS). The authors use the same detection algorithm, thus preserving the high quality of the resulting sample; the main difference is a significant increase in sky coverage. The new survey covers 397 square degrees and is based on 1610 high Galactic latitude ROSAT PSPC pointings, virtually all of the pointed ROSAT data that were suitable for the detection of distant clusters. The search volume for X-ray luminous clusters within z < 1 exceeds that of the entire local universe (z < 0.1). The authors detected 287 extended X-ray sources with fluxes f_x > 1.4 x 10<sup>-13</sup> erg s<sup>-1</sup> cm<sup>-2</sup> in the 0.5 - 2 keV energy band, of which 266 (93%) are optically confirmed as galaxy clusters, groups or individual elliptical galaxies. The paper from which this table is extracted provides a description of the input data, the statistical calibration of the survey via Monte Carlo simulations, and the catalog of detected clusters. The authors also therein compare the basic results with those from previous, smaller area surveys and find good agreement for the logN - log S distribution and the local X-ray luminosity function. This sample clearly shows a decrease in the number density for the most luminous clusters at z > 0.3. The comparison of these ROSAT-derived fluxes with the accurate Chandra measurements for a subset of high-redshift clusters demonstrates the validity of the 400 square degree survey's statistical calibration. This Browse table contains the main cluster catalog (Table 4 of the reference paper) which comprises 242 serendipitously detected clusters of galaxies. It does not include 24 clusters within a redshift of 0.01 of the redshift of the target of the ROSAT observation (given in Table 5 of the reference paper), as these latter are not entirely serendipitous, 5 noncluster extended sources (given in Table 6 of the reference paper), nor 16 likely false X-ray detections (given in Table 7 of the reference paper). This table was created by the HEASARC in December 2007 based on the machine-readable version of Table 4 (the 'Cluster Catalog') obtained from the electronic ApJ website.

VLA XMM Large Scale Structure Field 74-MHz Source Catalog
The XMM Large Scale Structure survey (XMM-LSS) is an X-ray survey aimed at studying the large scale structure of the Universe. The XMM-LSS field (centered at RA (J2000) = 02<sup>h</sup> 24<sup>m</sup> 00.27<sup>s</sup>, Dec (J2000) = -04<sup>o</sup> 09' 47.6") is currently being followed up using observations across a wide range of wavelengths, and in their paper the authors present the observational results of a low frequency radio survey of the XMM-LSS field using the Very Large Array at 74 and 325 MHz. This survey will map out the locations of the extragalactic radio sources relative to the large scale structure as traced by the X-ray emission. This is of particular interest because radio galaxies and radio-loud AGN show strong and complex interactions with their small and larger scale environment, and different classes of radio galaxies are suggested to lie at different places with respect to the large scale structure. For the phase calibration of the radio data, the authors used standard self-calibration at 325 MHz and field-base calibration at 74 MHz. Polyhedron-based imaging as well as mosaicking methods were used at both frequencies. At 74 MHz, the resolution was 30 arcseconds, the median 5-sigma sensitivity was ~ 162 mJy/beam and 666 sources were detected over an area of 132 square degrees. At 325 MHz, the resolution was 6.7 arcseconds, the median 5-sigma sensitivity was 4 mJy/beam, and 847 sources were detected over an area of 15.3 square degrees. At 325 MHz, a region of diffuse radio emission which is a cluster halo or relic candidate was detected. The observations were conducted using the VLA in July 2003 in the A-configuration (most extended) and in June 2002 in the B-configuration. This table contains the VLA 74-MHz source list, comprising 617 single sources and 108 components of 51 multiple sources, for a total of 725 entries. (Notice that, in Section 4.3 of the reference paper, somewhat different numbers are given, i.e., the authors quote 615 single sources). For the multiple sources, each component (A, B, etc.) is listed separately, in order of decreasing brightness. This table was created by the HEASARC in March 2012 based on <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/J/A+A/456/791">CDS Catalog J/A+A/456/791</a> file tablea2.dat.

SHELA Epoch 2 IRAC Catalog
The Spitzer/HETDEX Exploratory Large-Area (SHELA) survey covers ~24 sq. deg at 3.6 and 4.5 microns. The survey area falls within the footprints of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey "Stripe 82" region, the Hobby-Eberly Telescope Dark Energy Experiment (HETDEX), and the Dark Energy Survey. The images and catalogs are 80% (50%) complete to limiting magnitudes of 22.0 (22.6) AB mag in the detection image, which is constructed from the weighted sum of the IRAC 3.6 and 4.5 micron images. The catalogs reach limiting sensitivities of 1.1 microJy at both 3.6 and 4.5 microns (1#, for R = 2" circular apertures).
PEP PACS 160 micron Catalog
The PACS Evolutionary Probe (PEP, Lutz et al. 2011) is a Herschel guaranteed time deep extragalactic survey (KPGT_dlutz_1) targeting six among the most popular "blank fields", ten lensing clusters of galaxies, and two z ~1 clusters at wavelengths of 100, and 160 microns. PEP includes SPIRE observations of the two z ~1 clusters at wavelengths of 250, 350, and 500 microns. SPIRE coverage of all other fields is available from the HerMES survey (Oliver et al. 2010). In addition, deep SPIRE GOODS-N data are provided by the GOODS-Herschel program (Elbaz et al. 2011).PEP used the Starfinder IDL code (Diolaiti et al. 2000a,b) to blindly extract the PACS catalogs, by means of PSF-fitting. PEP adopted the "direct" noise maps and extracted PSFs directly from the observed maps (see documentation). The released catalogs include all sources above a S/N threshold of 3 sigma, derived directly from the measured fluxes and flux uncertainties. Users should keep in mind that the error estimate does not take into account confusion noise. PEP recommends to use any flux below 0.6 mJy in the green band and below 2.0 mJy in the red band with care.
HEAO 1 A1 X-Ray Source Catalog
The HEAO 1 A-1 X-Ray Source Catalog contains information about X-ray sources detected with the NRL Large Area Sky Survey Experiment (also referred to as the A-1 Experiment) flown aboard the HEAO-1 satellite. The catalog represents results from the first six months of data from HEAO-1, during which time a scan of the entire sky was completed. Positions and intensities for 842 sources are listed, with a limiting flux of 250 nanoJanskies (nJy) at 5 keV, or about 0.25 Uhuru flux units (UFU). The catalog is more than 90% complete at a flux level equivalent to 1.5 microJanskies (µJy) at 5 keV, for a Crab-like spectrum. The A-1 catalog has been cross-referenced with published literature. Identifications based on coincidence in position have been proposed for some of the sources for which previous work has established no firm identification. Half of the sources remained unidentified at the time of catalog publication (1984). The A3 database contains a list of 654 optical objects identified with A-1 error boxes. Minor structural changes were made to this database table and the documentation was revised by the HEASARC in July 2004. The basic content of the database table was unchanged, however.

DeepDrill ELAIS S1 2-band Catalog
The Vera C. Rubin Observatory Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST) will observe several Deep Drilling Fields (DDFs) to a greater depth and with a more rapid cadence than the main survey. The "DeepDrill" survey (Program ID 11086, P.I. Lacy) used the Spitzer Space Telescope Infrared Array Camera (IRAC) to observe three of the four currently defined DDFs in two bands, centered on 3.6 um and 4.5 um. These observations expand the area which was covered by an earlier set of observations in these three fields by the Spitzer Extragalactic Representative Volume Survey (SERVS). The combined DeepDrill and SERVS data cover the footprints of the LSST DDFs in the Extended Chandra Deep Field-South field (ECDFS), the ELAIS-S1 field (ES1), and the XMM-Large-Scale Structure Survey field (XMM-LSS).
FIRST Catalog of FR I Radio Galaxies
The authors have built a catalog of 219 Fanaroff and Riley class I edge-darkened radio galaxies (FR Is), called FRICAT, that is selected from a published sample and obtained by combining observations from the NVSS, FIRST, and SDSS surveys. They included in the catalog the sources with an edge-darkened radio morphology, redshift <= 0.15, and extending (at the sensitivity of the FIRST images) to a radius r larger than 30 kpc from the center of the host. The authors also selected an additional sample (sFRICAT) of 14 smaller (10 < r < 30 kpc) FR Is, limiting to z < 0.05. The hosts of the FRICAT sources are all luminous (-21 >~ M<sub>r</sub> >~ 24), red early-type galaxies with black hole masses in the range 10<sup>8</sup> <~ M<sub>BH</sub> <~ 3 x 10<sup>9</sup> solar masses); the spectroscopic classification based on the optical emission line ratios indicates that they are all low excitation galaxies. Sources in the FRICAT are then indistinguishable from the FR Is belonging to the Third Cambridge Catalogue of Radio Sources (3C) on the basis of their optical properties. Conversely, while the 3C-FR Is show a strong positive trend between radio and [O III] emission line luminosity, these two quantities are unrelated in the FRICAT sources; at a given line luminosity, they show radio luminosities spanning about two orders of magnitude and extending to much lower ratios between radio and line power than 3C-FR Is. The authors' main conclusion is that the 3C-FR Is represent just the tip of the iceberg of a much larger and diverse population of FR Is. This HEASARC table contains both the 219 radio galaxies in the main FRICAT sample listed in Table B.1 of the reference paper and the 14 radio galaxies in the additional sFRICAT sample listed in Table B.2 of the reference paper. To enable users to distinguish from which sample an entry has been taken, the HEASARC created a parameter galaxy_sample which is set to 'M' for galaxies from the main sample, and to 'S' for galaxies from the supplementary sFRICAT sample. Throughout the paper, the authors adopted a cosmology with H<sub>0</sub> = 67.8 km s<sup>-1</sup> Mpc<sup>-1</sup>, Omega<sub>M</sub> = 0.308, and Omega<sub>Lambda</sub> = 0.692 (Planck Collaboration XIII 2016).

NGC 6334 Chandra X-Ray Point Source Catalog
The full stellar population of NGC 6334, one of the most spectacular regions of massive star formation in the nearby Galaxy, has not been well sampled in past studies. The authors have analyzed a mosaic of two Chandra X-ray Observatory images of the region using sensitive data analysis methods, giving a list of 1607 faint X-ray sources with arcsecond positions and approximate line-of-sight absorption. About 95% of these are expected to be cluster members, most lower mass pre-main-sequence stars. Extrapolating to low X-ray levels, the total stellar population is estimated to be 20,000 - 30,000 pre-main-sequence stars. The X-ray sources show a complicated spatial pattern with ~10 distinct star clusters. The heavily obscured clusters are mostly associated with previously known far-infrared sources and radio H II regions. The lightly obscured clusters are mostly newly identified in the X-ray images. Dozens of likely OB stars are found, both in clusters and dispersed throughout the region, suggesting that star formation in the complex has proceeded over millions of years. A number of extraordinarily heavily absorbed X-ray sources are associated with the active regions of star formation. This table was created by the HEASARC in August 2009 based on the electronic version of table 1 from the above reference which were obtained from the AJ web site.

COSMOS Zamojski Morphology Catalog
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.Objects in this catalog were selected from the 2005 release of the ground-based photometry catalog, with the criterion that their I-band (auto) magnitude had to be <= 23. The IDs, ra and dec provided in this catalog correspond to those of that 2005 release.
WMAP 7-Year Internal Templates and Needlets New Source Catalog
The authors have developed a new needlet-based method to detect point sources in cosmic microwave background (CMB) maps and have applied it to the Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) 7-year data. They use both the individual frequency channels as well as internal templates, the latter being the difference between pairs of frequency channels and hence having the advantage that the CMB component is eliminated. Using the area of the sky outside the Kq85 galactic mask, they detect a total of 2102 point sources at the 5-sigma level in either the frequency maps or the internal templates. Of these, 1116 are detected either at 5 sigma directly in the frequency channels or at 5 sigma in the internal templates and >= 3 sigma at the corresponding position in the frequency channels. Of the 1116 sources, 603 are detections that have not been reported so far in WMAP data. The authors have made a catalog of these sources available with position and flux estimated in the WMAP channels where they are seen. In total, they identified 1029 of the 1116 sources with counterparts at 5 GHz and 69 at other frequencies. This table was created by the HEASARC in July 2012 based on an electronic version of Table 6 from the reference paper which was obtained from the ApJ web site.

Near-UV Detected Bright Early-M Dwarf Star Catalog
Planets orbiting within the close-in habitable zones of M dwarf stars will be exposed to elevated high-energy radiation driven by strong magnetohydrodynamic dynamos during stellar youth. Near-ultraviolet (NUV) irradiation can erode and alter the chemistry of planetary atmospheres, and a quantitative description of the evolution of NUV emission from M dwarfs is needed when modeling these effects. The authors investigated the NUV luminosity evolution of early M-type dwarfs by cross-correlating the Lepine & Gaidos (LG11: 2011, AJ, 142, 138) catalog of bright M dwarfs (available at the HEASARC as the MDWARFASC table) with the Galaxy Evolution Explorer (GALEX) catalog of NUV (1771-2831 Angstrom) sources. Of the 4,805 sources with GALEX counterparts, 797 have NUV emission significantly (> 2.5 sigma) in excess of an empirical basal level. The authors inspected these candidate active stars using visible-wavelength spectra, high-resolution adaptive optics imaging, time-series photometry, and literature searches to identify cases where the elevated NUV emission is due to unresolved background sources or stellar companions; they estimated the overall occurrence of these "false positives" (FPs) as ~ 16%. The authors constructed an NUV luminosity function that accounted for FPs, detection biases of the source catalogs, and GALEX upper limits. They found the NUV luminosity function to be inconsistent with predictions from a constant star-formation rate and simplified age-activity relation defined by a two-parameter power law. This table was created by the HEASARC in March 2015 based on an electronic versions of Table 4 from the reference paper which was obtained from the ApJ web site.

Spitzer Deep Wide-Field Survey 3.6 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. 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.
Spitzer Extragalactic First Look Survey IRAC Ch3 Verification Field Catalog
The Extragalactic First Look Survey is composed of 4 square degrees of imaging with MIPS and IRAC centered at J1718+5930, with extensive ancillary data from ground-based optical and radio telescopes. As one of the first observations made with Spitzer after the completion of Science Verification at the end of 2003 November, the aim of this 67 hr survey was to characterize the extragalactic source populations observed with Spitzer down to sub-millijansky levels in the mid-infrared.
Chandra Deep Field-South 7-Megasecond X-Ray Source Catalog
This table contains the X-ray source catalogs for the ~7 Ms exposure of the Chandra Deep Field-South (CDF-S), which covers a total area of 484.2 square arcminutes. Utilizing WAVDETECT for initial source detection and ACIS Extract for photometric extraction and significance assessment, the authors have created a main source catalog (entries with source_sample = 'M' in this HEASARC table) containing 1,008 sources that are detected in up to three X-ray bands: 0.5-7.0 keV, 0.5-2.0 keV, and 2-7 keV. A supplementary source catalog entries with source_sample = 'S' in this HEASARC table) is also provided, including 47 lower-significance sources that have bright (K<sub>s</sub> <~ 23<sup>m</sup>) near-infrared (NIR) counterparts. The authors have identified multiwavelength counterparts for 992 (98.4%) of the 1,008 main-catalog sources, and they have collected redshifts for 986 of these sources, including 653 spectroscopic redshifts and 333 photometric redshifts. Based on the X-ray and multiwavelength properties, the authors have identified 711 active galactic nuclei (AGNs) from the main-catalog sources. Compared to the previous ~4 Ms CDF-S catalogs, 291 of the main-catalog sources are new detections. The observations utilized in this survey have achieved unprecedented X-ray sensitivity with average flux limits over the central ~1 arcmin<sup>2</sup> region of ~1.9 x 10<sup>-17</sup>, 6.4 x 10<sup>-18</sup>, and 2.7 x 10<sup>-17</sup> erg cm<sup>-2</sup> s<sup>-1</sup> in the three X-ray bands, respectively. In the reference paper, the authors provide cumulative number-count measurements observing, for the first time, that normal galaxies start to dominate the X-ray source population at the faintest 0.5-2.0 keV flux levels. The highest X-ray source density reaches ~50,500 deg<sup>-2</sup>, and 47% +/- 4% of these sources are AGNs (~23,900 deg<sup>-2</sup>). The authors adopted a binomial no-source probability value, P<sub>B</sub> < 0.007 as the criterion to prune their initial candidate source list and generate a main source catalog, which includes 1,008 sources with a ~97% multiwavelength-identification rate. This adopted P<sub>B</sub> threshold will have inevitably rejected real X-ray sources. To recover some of these real sources, the authors created a supplementary source catalog that contains lower-significance X-ray sources that have bright optical/NIR counterparts; the chance of a bright optical/NIR source being associated with a spurious X-ray detection is quite small. A total of 47 candidate CDF-S sources having 0.007 <= P<sub>B</sub> < 0.1 are associated with bright, K<sub>s</sub> <= 23<sup>m</sup>, TENIS sources, where the false-match rate is only 1.7%, and these 47 sources constitute the supplementary catalog. A Galactic column density of N<sub>H,Gal</sub> = 8.8 * 10<sup>19</sup> cm<sup>-2</sup> along the line of sight to the CDF-S is assumed in this study. All quoted magnitudes are in the AB system. A cosmology with H<sub>0</sub> = 67.8 km s<sup>-1</sup> Mpc<sup>-1</sup>, Omega<sub>M</sub> = 0.308, and Omega<sub>Lambda</sub> = 0.692 (Planck Collaboration et al. 2016 values) is used to calculate luminosities. This HEASARC table contains the 1,008 sources from the main Chandra source catalog (these entries are identified by the HEASARC-created source_sample parameter being set to 'M' in this table) and the 47 lower-significance sources from the supplementary NIR-bright Chandra source catalog (these entries are identified by the HEASARC-created source_sample parameter being set to 'S' in this table). This table thus has 1,055 entries. This table was created by the HEASARC in March 2017 based upon electronic versions of Tables 4 and 5, the 'Main Chandra Source Catalog' and the 'Supplementary NIR-Bright Chandra Source Catalog', respectively, which were obtained from the ApJS website. Some of the values for the name parameter in the HEASARC's implementation of this table were corrected in April 2018. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .
9C Continued 15-GHz Ryle Telescope Survey of VSA Fields Source Catalog
The 9C (9th Cambridge) survey of radio sources with the Ryle Telescope at 15.2 GHz was set up to survey the fields of the cosmic microwave background telescope, the Very Small Array (VSA). In their first paper (Waldram et al. 2003, MNRAS, 342, 915), the authors described three regions of the survey, constituting a total area of 529 deg<sup>2</sup> to a completeness limit of ~ 25 mJy. In this follow-up, they present results from a series of deeper regions, constituting a total area of 115 deg<sup>2</sup> complete to ~ 10 mJy and of 29 deg<sup>2</sup> complete to ~ 5.5 mJy. The authors have investigated the source counts and the distributions of the 1.4 to 15.2 GHz spectral indices for these deeper samples. The whole catalog of 643 sources is contained in the present table. Down to their lower limit of 5.5 mJy, the authors detect no evidence for any change in the differential source count from the earlier fitted count above 25 mJy, n(S) = 51(S/Jy)<sup>-2.15</sup> Jy<sup>-1</sup> sr<sup>-1</sup>. They matched both their new and earlier catalogues with the NRAO VLA Sky Survey (NVSS) catalogue at 1.4 GHz and selected flux-limited samples at both 15 and 1.4 GHz. As they expected, they found that the proportions of sources with flat and rising spectra in the samples selected at 15 GHz are significantly higher than those in the samples selected at 1.4 GHz. In addition, for 15-GHz samples selected in three flux density ranges, they detect a significant shift in the median value of the 1.4 to 15.2 GHz spectral index: the higher the flux densities, the higher the proportions of sources with flat and rising spectra. In the area complete to ~ 10 mJy, the authors find five sources between 10 and 15 mJy at 15 GHz, amounting to 4.3 per cent of sources in this range, with no counterpart in the NVSS catalogue. This implies that, had they relied on the NVSS for locating their sources, they could have missed a significant proportion of them at low flux densities. These results illustrate the problems inherent in using a low-frequency catalog to characterize the source population at a much higher frequency and emphasize the value of a blind 15.2-GHz survey. This table was created in November 2010 based on <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/J/MNRAS/404/1005">CDS catalog J/MNRAS/404/1005</a> file 9c_cont.dat.

Planck Catalog of 217-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 PCCS2 subsample of the PCCS Public Release 2 table of sources detected at 217 GHz. One of the primary differences of this release of the PCCS from previous releases is the division of the six highest frequency catalogs into two subcatalogs, the PCCS2 a
ROSAT North Ecliptic Pole Survey X-Ray Source Catalog
This table contains the ROSAT North Ecliptic Pole (NEP) Survey X-Ray Source Catalog. The sky around the NEP, at RA (J2000.0) = 18h00m00s, Declination (J2000.0) = +66d33'39", has the deepest exposure of the entire ROSAT All-Sky Survey (RASS). The NEP is an undistinguished region of moderate Galactic latitude, b = 29.8 degrees, and hence it is suitable for compiling statistical samples of both Galactic and extragalactic objects. The authors have made such a compilation in the 80.6 square degrees region surrounding the NEP. Their sample fully exploits the properties of the RASS, since the only criteria for inclusion are source position and significance, and it yields the deepest large solid angle contiguous sample of X-ray sources to date. They find 442 unique sources above a flux limit ~2 x 10<sup>-14</sup> ergs cm<sup>-2</sup> s<sup>-1</sup> in the 0.5-2.0 keV band. In this table, the X-ray properties of these sources as determined from the RASS are presented. These include positions, fluxes, spectral information in the form of hardness ratios, and angular sizes.

IceCube All-Sky Point-Source Neutrino Events Catalog (2008-2018)
IceCube has performed several searches for point-like sources of neutrinos. The events contained in this release make up the sample used in IceCube's 10-year time-integrated neutrino point source search [1]. Events in the sample are track-like neutrino candidates detected by IceCube between April 2008 and July 2018. The data contained in this release of IceCube's point source sample shows 3.3 sigma evidence of a cumulative excess of events from a catalog of 110 potential sources, primarily driven by four sources (NGC 1068, TXS 0506+056, PKS 1424+240, and GB6 J1542+6129). NGC 1068 gives the largest excess and appears in spatial coincidence with the hottest spot in the full Northern sky search [1]. IceCube's 10-year neutrino point source event sample includes updated processing for events between April 2012 and May 2015, leading to differences in significances of some sources, including TXS 0506+056. For more information, please refer to [2]. This release contains data beginning in 2008 (IC40) until the spring of 2018 (IC86-VII). In order to standardize the release format of IceCube's point source candidate events, this release duplicates and supplants previously released data from 2012 and earlier. Events from this release cannot be combined with other IceCube public data releases. Please note that this dataset is dominated by background events from atmospheric muons and neutrinos detected by IceCube, with a subdominant astrophysical event contribution. Any spatial or temporal correlations should therefore be carefully evaluated on a statistical basis. See [1] and references therein for details regarding the statistical techniques used by IceCube.

COSMOS VLA 327MHz Catalog
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.The 90 cm Very Large Array imaging of the COSMOS field comprises a circular area of 3.14 square degrees at 8.0 arcsec by 6.0 arcsec angular resolution with an average rms of 0.5 mJy/beam. The extracted catalogue contains 182 sources (down to 5.5 sigma), 30 of which are multicomponent sources.
GALEX/SDSS z=0.5-1.5 QSO Candidates Catalog
A sample of ~60,000 objects from the combined Sloan Digital Sky Survey-Galaxy Evolution Explorer (SDSS-GALEX) database with UV-optical colors that should isolate QSOs in the redshift range 0.5 to 1.5 is discussed. The authors use SDSS spectra of a subsample of ~ 4,500 to remove stellar and galaxy contaminants in the sample to a very high level, based on the 7-band photometry. In their paper, they discuss the distributions of redshift, luminosity, and reddening of the 19,100 QSOs (~96%) that they estimate to be present in their final sample of 19,812 point sources. This latter catalog is available in the present table. This paper is based on archival data from the Galaxy Evolution Explorer (GALEX) which is operated for NASA by the California Institute of Technology under NASA contract NAS5-98034, and on data from the SDSS. This table was created by the HEASARC in March 2011 based on the electronic version of Table 2 from the reference paper which was obtained from the AJ web site. Some of the values for the name parameter in the HEASARC's implementation of this table were corrected in April 2018. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .
