M 81 Chandra X-Ray Point Source Catalog
This table contains the source table from an analysis of 15 Chandra ACIS observations of the nearby spiral galaxy M81 taken over the course of six weeks in 2005 May-July. Each observation reaches a sensitivity of ~10<sup>37</sup> erg s<sup>-1</sup>. With these observations and one previous deeper Chandra observation (the properties of which are described in Table 1 and Section 2 of the reference paper), the authors have compiled a master source list of 265 point sources, extracted and fitted their spectra, and differentiated basic populations of sources through their colors. They also carried out variability analyses of individual point sources and of X-ray luminosity functions (XLFs) in multiple regions of M 81 on timescales of days, months, and years. They find that, despite measuring significant variability in a considerable fraction of sources, snapshot observations provide a consistent determination of the XLF of M81. They also fit the XLFs for multiple regions of M81 and, using common parametrization, compare these luminosity functions to those of two other spiral galaxies, M31 and the Milky Way. This table contains the 265 point sources at or above the 99.9% probability level of being real according to AE's PROB_NO_SOURCE statistic (the "master" source list), and 11 additional "borderline" sources which have 99.0-99.9% probability of being real according to AE's PROB_NO_SOURCE statistic, for a total of 276 sources whose properties were described in Tables 3 and 4 of the reference paper. The 265 "master" sources have source numbers from 1 to 265 while the 11 "borderline" sources have source numbers beginning with 'B', e.g., they have source numbers 'B1' to 'B11'. Note that only coordinates are listed for 3 sources in the master source list (source numbers 234, 241 and 262) and 2 sources in the borderline source list (B8 and B9) because they were only in the field of view (on chip) of one observation (ObsID 735). Six additional sources near the center of M81 which were found using maximum likelihood image reconstruction are not included in either the master or borderline source lists contained herein but their positions are listed in table 2 of the reference paper. This table was created by the HEASARC in August 2011 based on electronic versions of Tables 3 and 4 from the reference paper which were obtained from the ApJ 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 .
XMM-Newton Large-Scale Structure Optical Identifications Catalog
This table contains optical spectroscopic identifications of X-ray sources in ~3 square degrees of the XMM-Large Scale Structure survey (XMM-LSS), also covered by the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope Legacy Survey (CFHTLS), which were obtained with the AAOmega instrument at the 3.9-m Anglo-Australian Telescope during the nights of 2006 September 25-27 and 2007 September 11-13. In a flux-limited sample of 829 point-like sources in the optical band with g' <= 22 magnitudes and the 0.5-2 keV flux (f_0.5-2keV) > 10<sup>-15</sup> erg/cm<sup>2</sup>/s, the authors observed 693 objects and obtained reliable spectroscopic identification for 487 sources, approximately 59% of the overall sample. The authors therefore have increased the number of identifications in this field by a factor close to 5. Galactic stellar sources represent about 15% of the total (74/487). About 54% (265/487) are broad-line active galactic nuclei (AGN) spanning redshifts between 0.15 and 3.87 with a median value of 1.68. The optical-to-X-ray spectral index (alpha_ox) of the broad-line AGN is 1.47 +/- 0.03, typical of optically selected type I quasars, and is found to correlate with the rest-frame X-ray and optical monochromatic luminosities at 2 keV and 2500 Angstroms, respectively. Consistent with previous studies, the authors find that alpha_ox is not correlated with z. In addition, 32 and 116 X-ray sources are, respectively, absorption- and emission-line galaxies at z < 0.76. From a line ratio diagnostic diagram, it is found that in about 50% of these emission-line galaxies, the emission lines are powered significantly by the AGN. 30 of the XMM sources are detected at one or more radio frequencies (see Table 5 in the published paper). In addition, 24 sources (listed in table 4 of the published paper) have ambiguous identification: in eight cases, two XMM sources have a single optical source within 6 arcsec of each of them, whereas two and 14 XMM sources have, respectively, three and two possible optical sources within 6 arcsec of each of them. Spectra of multiple possible counterparts were obtained in such ambiguous cases. This HEASARC table contains the 487 sources which were reliably spectroscopically identified. This table was created by the HEASARC in July 2010 based on the <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/J/MNRAS/401/294">CDS Catalog J/MNRAS/401/294</a> file table2.dat.

Spitzer Wide-area InfraRed Extragalactic Survey ELAIS-N1 MIPS 160 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.
XMM-Newton OM Object Catalog
The Optical Monitor Catalog of serendipitous sources (OMCat) contains entries for every source detected in the publicly available XMM-Newton Optical Monitor (OM) images taken in the imaging mode. Since the OM records data simultaneously with the X-ray telescopes on XMM-Newton, it typically produces images in one or more near-UV/optical bands for every pointing of the observatory. As of the beginning of 2014, the data in the public archive covered roughly 0.5% of the sky in 3425 fields. The OMCat is not dominated by sources previously undetected at other wavelengths; the bulk of objects have optical counterparts. However, the OMCat can be used to extend optical or X-ray spectral energy distributions for known objects into the ultraviolet, to study at higher angular resolution objects detected with GALEX, or to find high-Galactic-latitude objects of interest for UV spectroscopy. Differences between the current OMCat and the previous version of the OMCat (which was designated as XMMOMOBJ) are improved coordinates, improved quality flags, and a reduced number of spurious sources. The OM reduction was done with the standard ESAS software, with post-processing to apply the coordinate corrections in a more consistent manner. There is a major change in the way the data are represented in the table. In the previous XMMOMOBJ table a separate row was generated for each filter. In the current XMMOMCAT table each observation of each object generates only a single row regardless of how many filters were used. Unused filters have nulls while filters where the object is not detected have nulls for the detection parameters but a non-zero value for exposure. The table includes information for each filter and averaged information for the object as a whole. Only filters in which the object was detected are used in the averages. The parameters in this table comprise two sets: parameters describing the detection overall including id's and mean values, and values specific to the individual bands. There are three possible situations for the band data: (1) If there was no exposure in that band, then all fields for that band will be null. (2) If there was some exposure in the band but the object was not detected in that band, then the exposure field will give the actual exposure, but all of the other fields for that band will be null. (3) If the object was detected, then all of the fields for the band should be filled in. The filters included are V, B, U, UVW1, UVM2, UVW2 and white (i.e., unfiltered). The original table (formerly known as XMMOMOBJ) was created by the HEASARC in March 2008, based on a table supplied by the authors. The XMMOMCAT version was generated and ingested in February 2014 using a program which concatenated the objects detected in processing each observation. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .
Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope XMM Large Scale Structure 610-MHz Source Catalog
The low-frequency radio survey of the XMM-Large Scale Structure (XMM-LSS) field centered at RA (J2000) = 2<sup>h</sup>24<sup>m</sup>00<sup>s</sup>, Dec (J2000) = -4<sup>0</sup>09'47" aims to study the connection between the extragalactic radio source populations and their environment as traced by X-ray and optical emission. In their paper, the authors present new radio observations of the XMM-LSS field carried out using the Giant Meterwave Radio Telescope (GMRT) at 240 and 610 MHz. These observations complement the observations presented by Cohen at al. (2003, ApJ, 591, 640; <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/J/ApJ/591/640">CDS Cat. <J/ApJ/591/640></a>) and Tasse et al. (2006, A&A, 456, 791; <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/J/A+A/456/791">CDS Cat. <J/A+A/456/791></a>) at 74 and 325 MHz with the Very Large Array (VLA). At 240 and 610 MHz, the authors reach noise levels of ~2.5 and ~0.3 mJy/beam, leading to the detection of 466 and 769 sources over 18.0 and 12.7 degree<sup>2</sup> with resolutions of 14.7 arcseconds and 6.5 arcseconds, respectively. Combining these data with the available source lists at 74 MHz, 325 MHz (Tasse et al., 2006) and 1400MHz (NVSS), the authors built a multifrequency catalog containing 1611 radio sources. They checked for consistency of the astrometry and flux density estimates. They fit a simple synchrotron radiation model to the flux density measurements of the 318 radio sources that were detected in at least 4 bands. While ~26% of them showed signature of spectral ageing, ~6% showed self absorption. This table contains the GMRT 610-MHz source list, comprising 592 single sources and 445 components of multiple sources, for a total of 1037 entries. For the multiple sources, each component (A, B, etc.) is listed separately, in order of decreasing brightness.

NGC 2264 Chandra X-Ray Point Source Catalog
The NGC 2264 Chandra X-Ray Point Source Catalog contains the results of a Chandra observation of a field in the NGC 2264 star-forming region. The observation was made with Chandra's Advanced CCD Imaging Spectrometer imaging array (ACIS-I) on 2002 February 9, and has an exposure time of 48.1 ks. The catalog contains 263 sources, and includes X-ray luminosity, optical and infrared photometry, and X-ray variability information. The authors found 41 variable sources, 14 of which have a flare-like light curve, and two of which have a pattern of a steady increase or decrease over a 10-hr period. The optical and infrared photometry for the stars identified as X-ray sources are consistent with most of these objects being pre-main sequence stars with ages younger than 3 Myr. The authors found that 213 (81%) of the 263 X-ray sources have optical and/or infrared counterparts, most, but probably not all, of which are likely to be member stars of NGC 2264. There are 51 X-ray sources that lack optical or infrared counterparts: the authors believe that these are most likely extragalactic objects (active galaxies). This table was created by the HEASARC in February 2007 based on CDS table J/AJ/127/2659, files table1.dat, table4.dat and table5.dat. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .
Westerlund 1 Chandra X-Ray Point Source Catalog
The nature of the X-ray point source population within the young massive cluster Westerlund 1 (Wd 1) is investigated. Chandra X-ray Observatory (CXO) observations were used to determine the X-ray properties of emitters within Wd 1, while a comprehensive multi-wavelength dataset was employed to constrain their nature. Wd 1 (l=339.5, b=-0.4) was observed with the CXO Advanced CCD Spectrometer Spectroscopic array on 2005 May 22 for 18 ks (sequence 6283) and 2005 June 20 for 42 ks (sequence 5411). 241 sources were found above a sensitivity threshold that corresponded to a 10<sup>-6</sup> chance per PSF element of detecting a spurious source. X-ray emission from a multitude of different stellar sources within Wd 1, including both evolved high mass and low-mass pre-MS stars, is found. This table was created by the HEASARC in May 2008 based on CDS table J/A+A/477/147 files table1.dat and table3.dat. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .
INTEGRAL/ISGRI Catalog of Variable X-Ray Sources
In 6 years of operation, INTEGRAL/ISGRI revealed more than 500 sources. Many of these sources are variable. Taking into account that nearly half of INTEGRAL/ISGRI sources are new and many of them are still unidentified, the variability properties of the sources can serve as additional parameters that may help to classify and identify the unknown sources. In order to study the variability properties of the sources detected by INTEGRAL/ISGRI, the authors have developed a method to quantify the variability of a source which is described in their paper. They have compiled a catalog of the sources that fit their criteria of variability. This catalog gives the values of fractional variability, the flux, and the corresponding 2-sigma errors of the sources from the INTEGRAL Reference Catalog (<a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/J/A+A/411/L59:">CDS Cat. J/A+A/411/L59:</a> INTVARCAT in Browse) version 30. The data are given for 3 energy bands: 20-40, 40-100, and 100-200 keV. The exposure times of the sources are given for each energy band only if the source was detected in the given band. This table also gives the source type according to the reference catalog. If the source is localized in more then one map then the weighted mean values of the flux and variability are given. The sources active during specific time periods and not detected at the total variability map are indicated with "b" letter in the source_flag parameter. The sources detected only in the total variability map are indicated with an "i" letter value for this parameter, while a letter "g" indicates that the source was affected by the "ghost" of another source. The map<sub>det</sub>* parameters specify the time period map(s) in which the source was visible, where the presence of an 'X' following a map number means that the source was not detected in the respective significance map, and that a lower limit for the fractional variability is given in such a case. This table was created by the HEASARC in December 2010 based on <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/J/A+A/522/A68">CDS Catalog J/A+A/522/A68</a> file table3.dat.

Spitzer Wide-area InfraRed Extragalactic Survey Lockman Hole Optical-IRAC-MIPS24 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.The main SWIRE catalogs for 24 micron data are the Optical-IRAC-MIPS24 bandmerged catalogs. The bandmerged catalogs require a detection in the shortest IRAC band (3.6 microns). The SWIRE project has produced single-band 24 micron catalogs to cover regions that lie outside the IRAC images, and to include sources that for some reason were not associated with a 3.6 micron detection.
Planck PCCS2 44GHz Catalog
The second Planck Catalogue of Compact Sources (PCCS2) is a set of single-frequency source catalogues extracted from the Planck full-mission maps in intensity and polarization. The 100, 143, 217, and 353 GHz catalogs include polarization measurements. 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.
Cep B/OB3 Star-Forming Region Chandra X-Ray Point Source Catalog
This table contains the Cepheus B star formation region (the Cep B molecular cloud and the Cep OB3b OB association) Chandra X-Ray point source catalog. The Cepheus B (Cep B) molecular cloud and a portion of the nearby Cep OB3b OB association, one of the most active regions of star formation within 1 kpc, have been observed with the ACIS detector on board the Chandra X-Ray Observatory. 431 X-ray sources have been detected, of which 89% are confidently identified as clustered pre-main-sequence (PMS) stars. Two main results are obtained. First, the best census to date for the stellar population of the region has been made, with many members of two rich stellar clusters, the lightly obscured Cep OB3b association and the deeply embedded cluster in Cep B, whose existence was previously traced only by a handful of radio sources and T Tauri stars, being identified. Second, a discrepancy between the X-ray luminosity functions of the Cep OB3b and the Orion Nebula cluster has been found. This may be due to the different initial mass functions of the two regions (an excess of ~=0.3 M_solar stars) or different age distributions. Several other results are obtained. A diffuse X-ray component seen in the field is attributed to the integrated emission of unresolved low-mass PMS stars. The X-ray emission from HD 217086 (O7n), the principle ionizing source of the region, follows the standard model, involving many small shocks in an unmagnetized radiatively accelerated wind. X-ray source 294 joins a number of similar superflare PMS stars for which long magnetic structures may connect the protoplanetary disk to the stellar surface. The Chandra observation of Cep B and Cep OB3b was obtained on 2003 March 11.51-11.88 with the ACIS camera. Only results from the imaging array (ACIS-I) covering about 17' x 17' on the sky are considered here. The aim point of the array was 22 56 49.4 +62 39 55.6 (J2000.0 RA and Dec), and the satellite roll angle was 7.9 degrees. The total net exposure time was 30 ksec, with no background flaring or data losses. This table was created by the HEASARC in February 2007 based on the merger of electronic versions of tables 1, 2 and 3 from the above reference which were obtained from the ApJS website.

Eta Chamaeleontis eROSITA EDR Field X-Ray (2.3-5.0 keV) Source Catalog
This database table contains the catalog of the X-ray sources in the eta Chamaeleontis field scan eROSITA observation (OBSID 300004; see Robrade et al., 2022) in the hard (2.3-5.0 keV) band. The nearby young open cluster eta Chamaeleontis was observed by eROSITA/SRG during its CalPV phase for 150 ks. The eROSITA data were taken in the field-scan mode, an observing mode of Spectrum-Roentgen-Gamma (SRG) that follows a rectangular grid-like pattern, covering a 5x5 deg field with an exposure depth of about 5 ks. The authors studied the known members in X-rays and searched for potential new members of the anticipated dispersed low-mass cluster population. Detected sources were identified by cross-matching X-ray sources with Gaia and 2MASS, and young stars were identified by their X-ray activity, by their position in the color-magnitude diagram, and by their astrometric and kinematic properties. X-ray luminosities, light curves, and spectra of cluster members were obtained and compared with previous X-ray data. Literature results of other member searches were used to verify the new member candidates in the observed field. The authors determined X-ray properties of virtually all known eta Cha members and identified five additional stellar systems that showed basically identical characteristics, but are more dispersed. Four of them were previously proposed as potential members; this status is supported by this X-ray study. Based on their spatial distribution, further members are expected beyond the sky region surveyed. The identified stellar systems very likely belong to the ejected halo population, which brings the total number of eta Cha cluster members to at least 23. <a href="/W3Browse/erosita/etachamain.html">ETACHAMAIN</a> is the related catalog of main (0.2-2.3 keV) sources. This database table was ingested by the HEASARC in August 2022 and is based upon a file downloaded from the eROSITA-DE Early Data Release <a href="https://erosita.mpe.mpg.de/edr/eROSITAObservations/Catalogues/">catalogs web page</a>. In some cases, the HEASARC has altered the original field names, as per HEASARC conventions, and provides the original field names in square brackets. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .
Ultraviolet Imaging Telescope Near-UV Bright Objects Catalog
The Ultraviolet Imaging Telescope (UIT) Near-UV Bright Objects Catalog is a photometric catalog of 2244 objects detected by the UIT in the near-ultraviolet (NUV; 1650A<lambda<2900A) during the Astro-1 Space Shuttle mission. Sources in the catalog are as faint as near-UV magnitude m_nuv of about 18.8, or near-UV flux f_nuv ~ 1.1x10<sup>-16ergs/s/cm</sup>2/A, but the survey is not complete to this level. Optical catalogs were used to cross identify sources and derive near-UV to Johnson V colors. A majority of the objects (88%) do indeed have proposed optical identifications from catalogs, and most are stars. The authors' purpose in creating the catalog was to form a database useful for identifying very blue objects and for performing Galactic UV stellar population studies. This database was created by the HEASARC in November 2000 based on a machine-readable version obtained from the CDS (Catalog J/ApJS/104/287). This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .
Bootes Deep Field WSRT 1.4-GHz Source Catalog
This radio source catalog is the result of deep (16x12 hour) Westerbork Synthesis Radio Telescope (WSRT) observations of the approximately 7 square degree Bootes Deep Field, centered at an RA and Declination (J2000) of 14 hr 32 min 5.75 sec, +34 deg 16 arcmin 47.5 arcsec. The survey consisted of 42 discrete pointings, with enough overlap to ensure a uniform sensitivity across the entire field, and with a limiting sensitivity of 28 microJansky (1 sigma rms). The catalog consists of 3172 distinct sources detected with a significance of 5 sigma or greater, of which 316 are resolved by the 13 x 27 arcsec beam. This database table was created by the HEASARC in December 2001 based on the a data file obtained from the authors' FTP site (no longer available). It was modified slightly in March 2011 (using the CDS data file <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/J/AJ/123/1784/catalog.dat">https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/J/AJ/123/1784/catalog.dat</a>) to make the source names adhere to the naming convention of the Dictionary of Nomenclature of Celestial Objects.

eROSITA eFEDS Main X-Ray (0.2-2.3 keV) Source Catalog
The eROSITA X-ray telescope on board the Spectrum-Roentgen-Gamma (SRG) observatory combines a large field of view and collecting area in the energy range ~0.2 to ~8.0 keV with the capability to perform uniform scanning observations of large sky areas. SRG/eROSITA performed scanning observations of the ~140 square degrees eROSITA Final Equatorial Depth Survey (eFEDS) field as part of its performance verification phase. The observing time was chosen to slightly exceed the depth of equatorial fields after the completion of the eROSITA all-sky survey. The authors present a catalog of detected X-ray sources in the eFEDS field providing source positions and extent information, as well as fluxes in multiple energy bands and document a suite of tools and procedures developed for eROSITA data processing and analysis, validated and optimized by the eFEDS work. A multi-stage source detection procedure was optimized and calibrated by performing realistic simulations of the eROSITA eFEDS observations. The authors cross-matched the eROSITA eFEDS source catalog with previous XMM-ATLAS observations, confirming excellent agreement of the eROSITA and XMM-ATLAS source fluxes. This table presents the primary catalog of 27910 X-ray sources, including 542 with significant spatial extent, detected in the 0.2-2.3 keV energy range with detection likelihoods >=6 , corresponding to a (point source) flux limit of ~6.5 x 10<sup>-15</sup> erg/cm<sup>2</sup>/s in the 0.5-2.0 keV energy band (80% completeness). The linked <a href="/W3Browse/erosita/efedshard.html">EFEDSHARD</a> table presents the hard band sample of 246 sources detected in the energy range 2.3-5.0 keV above a detection likelihood of 10. A supplementary catalog contains 4774 low-significance source candidates with detection likelihoods between 5 and 6. The dedicated data analysis software package, calibration database, and calibrated data products are described in an appendix. Additional information for the eROSITA early data release observations is available at the <a href="https://erosita.mpe.mpg.de/edr/">eROSITA-DE EDR website</a>. This database table was originally ingested by the HEASARC in August 2022 and is based upon the "eROSITA/eFEDS main catalogue" file downloaded from the eROSITA-DE Early Data Release <a href="https://erosita.mpe.mpg.de/edr/eROSITAObservations/Catalogues/">catalogs web page</a>. It was revised in June 2024 in order to rename the right ascension, declination, and their related positional uncertainty parameters to match the parameter naming convention used in other eROSITA catalogs.

Hitomi Master Catalog
This table records high-level information for the observations obtained with Hitomi and provides access to the data archive. The Hitomi mission was launched on a JAXA H-IIA into low Earth orbit on February 17, 2016, at 5:45 pm JPS from Tanegashima Space Center. Hitomi was equipped with four different instruments that together cover a wide energy range 0.3-600 keV. The Soft X-ray Spectrometer (SXS), which combined a lightweight Soft X-ray Telescope paired with a X-ray Calorimeter Spectrometer, provided non-dispersive 7-eV resolution in the 0.3-10 keV bandpass with a field of view of about 3 arcminutes. The Soft X-ray Imager (SXI) expanded the field of view with a new generation CCD camera in the energy range of 0.5-12 keV at the focus of the second lightweights Soft X-ray Telescope; the Hard X-ray Imager (HXI, two units) performed sensitive imaging spectroscopy in the 5-80 keV band; the non-imaging Soft Gamma-ray Detector (SGD, two units) extended Hitomi's energy band to 600 keV. On March 27, 2016, JAXA lost contact with the satellite and, on April 28, announced the cessation of the efforts to restore mission operations. At that time Hitomi was in check-out phase and had started the calibration observations. Data were collected from six celestial objects (Perseus, N132D, IGR_J16318-4848, RXJ1856.5-3754, G21.5-0.9, and Crab) as well as black sky for a total of about one month of data. The data from these observations were divided into intervals of one day if the observation of a specific pointing was longer that one day. A sequence number was assigned to each observing day and within data from all instruments are included. The day division was mainly to limit the data size within a sequence number. There are in total 42 sequences, and each record in this database table is dedicated to a single sequence. The early observations do not contain data from all instruments and in cases the object was not always placed at the aim point. This database contains parameters to indicate which instrument was on and if the celestial source was in the field of view. The SXS was the first instrument to turn on and therefore all observations contain SXS data, although the thermal equilibrium was reached after March 4 2016. The second instrument was the SXI followed by the HXIs and, finally, the two SGDs. This database table was generated at the Hitomi Science Data Center processing site (Angelini, L., Terada, Y, et al., 2016, SPIE 9905E, 14) with additions to indicate which instrument was on and if the source was in the FOV. It was ingested into the HEASARC database in June 2017. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .
Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory Star Catalog
This database is based on the electronic version of the SAO catalog from the Astronomical Data Center, which is itself based on an original binary version of the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory Star Catalog (SAO, SAO Staff 1966). Subsequent improvements by T. A. Nagy (1979) included the addition of cross-identifications from the Table of Correspondences SAO/HD/DM/GC (Morin 1973). As a prelude to creation of the 1984 version of the SAO, a new version of the SAO-HD-GC-DM Cross Index was prepared (Roman, Warren, and Schofield 1983). The 1984 version of the SAO contained the corrected and extended cross identifications, all errata published up to January 1984 and known to the ADC, numerous errors forwarded to the ADC by colleagues, and errors discovered at the ADC during the course of this work. Clayton A. Smith of the U. S. Naval Observatory provided J2000.0 positions and proper motions for the SAO stars. Published and unpublished errors discovered in the previous version (1984) have been corrected (up to May 1991). For this HEASARC representation, some parameters such as the RA and Dec in radians have been omitted. This online version of the SAO Catalog was created by the HEASARC in March 2001 based on ADC/<a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/I/131A">CDS Catalog I/131A</a>, which itself is originally derived from a character-coded machine-readable version of the Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory Star Catalog (SAO, SAO Staff 1966) prepared by T.A. Nagy in 1979, and subsequently modified over the next decade or so. The first machine-readable version contained format modifications, cross identifications and other changes, and was the starting point of the version in this database. Additional changes were made to the SAO catalog over time (namely more cross identifications and corrections) which resulted in a new version in 1984. Finally, the most recent version of the catalog was published in 1989. It included J2000 positions for all the objects, and corrections to errors known as of May 1989.

Lepine and Shara Northern Stars Proper Motion (LSPM-North) Catalog
The LSPM catalog is a comprehensive list of 61,977 stars north of the J2000 celestial equator that have proper motions larger than 0.15" yr<sup>-1</sup> (local-background-stars frame). The catalog has been generated primarily as a result of the authors' systematic search for high-proper-motion stars in the Digitized Sky Surveys using their SUPERBLINK software (note that this catalog is consequently also sometimes referred to as the SUPERBLINK Catalog). At brighter magnitudes, the catalog incorporates stars and data from the Tycho-2 Catalog and also, to a lesser extent, from the All-Sky Compiled Catalogue of 2.5 million stars (ASCC-2.5: Kharchenko 2001). The LSPM catalog considerably expands over the old Luyten (Luyten Half-Second (LHS) and New Luyten Two-Tenths (NLTT) catalogs, superseding them for northern declinations. Positions are given with an accuracy of <~ 100 milliarcseconds (mas) at the 2000.0 epoch, and absolute proper motions are given with an accuracy of ~ 8 mas/yr. Corrections to the local-background-stars proper motions have been calculated, and absolute proper motions in the extragalactic frame are given. Whenever available, the authors also give optical B<sub>T</sub> and V<sub>T</sub> magnitudes (from Tycho-2, ASCC-2.5), photographic B<sub>J</sub>, R<sub>F</sub>, and I<sub>N</sub> magnitudes (from the USNO-B1 catalog), and infrared J, H, and K<sub>s</sub> magnitudes (from 2MASS). An estimated V magnitude and V-J color is also provided for nearly all catalog entries, which is useful for initial classification of the stars. The catalog is estimated to be over 99% complete at high Galactic latitudes (|b| > 15 degrees) and over 90% complete at low Galactic latitudes (|b| < 15 degrees), down to a magnitude of V = 19.0, and has a limiting magnitude V = 21.0. All the northern stars listed in the LHS and NLTT catalogs have been re-identified, and their positions, proper motions, and magnitudes reevaluated. The catalog also lists a large number of completely new objects, which promise to expand very significantly the census of red dwarfs, sub-dwarfs, and white dwarfs in the vicinity of the Sun. All of Luyten's NLTT stars north of the J2000 celestial equator that do NOT appear in the LSPM Catalog are listed in Table 3 of the published paper, together with the explanations as to why they were not included in the LSPM Catalog. This table was created by the HEASARC in June 2013 based on an electronic version of Table 1 from the reference paper which was obtained from the CDS web site (their catalog I/298).

S-COSMOS MIPS 70 micron Photometry 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 MIPS 70 and 160 micron catalogs are described in Frayer et al. (2009).
Spitzer Wide-area InfraRed Extragalactic Survey Lockman Hole MIPS24 Single-Band 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.The main SWIRE catalogs for 24 micron data are the Optical-IRAC-MIPS24 bandmerged catalogs. The bandmerged catalogs require a detection in the shortest IRAC band (3.6 microns). The SWIRE project has produced single-band 24 micron catalogs to cover regions that lie outside the IRAC images, and to include sources that for some reason were not associated with a 3.6 micron detection.
