HERITAGE LMC PACS 160 micron Catalog

The HERschel Inventory of The Agents of Galaxy Evolution (HERITAGE) open time key program mapped the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) and Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) at 100, 160, 250, 350, and 500 microns using Herschel's PACS and SPIRE instruments. The overriding science goal of HERITAGE is to study the life cycle of matter as traced by dust in the LMC and SMC.

WISE/2MASS/RASS (W2R) AGN Sample Catalog

The authors of this catalog have developed the S<sub>IX</sub> statistic to identify bright, highly likely active galactic nucleus (AGN) candidates solely on the basis of Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE), Two-Micron All-Sky Survey (2MASS), and ROSAT All-Sky Survey (RASS) data. This statistic was optimized with data from the preliminary WISE survey and the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, and tested with Lick 3 m Kast spectroscopy. The authors find that sources with S<sub>IX</sub> < 0 have a >~ 95% likelihood of being an AGN (defined in this paper as a Seyfert 1, quasar, or blazar). This statistic was then applied to the full WISE/2MASS/RASS dataset, including the final WISE data release, to yield the "W2R" sample of 4316 sources with S<sub>IX</sub> < 0. Only 2209 of these sources are currently in the Veron-Cetty and Veron (VCV) Catalog of spectroscopically confirmed AGNs, indicating that the W2R sample contains nearly 2000 new, relatively bright (J <~ 16) AGNs. The authors utilize the W2R sample to quantify biases and incompleteness in the VCV Catalog. They find that it is highly complete for bright (J < 14), northern AGNs, but the completeness drops below 50% for fainter, southern samples and for sources near the Galactic plane. This approach also led to the spectroscopic identification of 10 new AGNs in the Kepler field, more than doubling the number of AGNs being monitored by Kepler. The W2R sample contains better than 1 bright AGN every 10 deg<sup>2</sup>, permitting construction of AGN samples in any sufficiently large region of sky. This table contains the 4316 sources comprising the W2R sample. This table was created by the HEASARC in June 2012 based on an electronic version of Table 3 from the reference paper which was obtained from the ApJ website.

NGC 2808 XMM-Newton X-Ray Point Source Catalog

Galactic globular clusters harbor binary systems that are detected as faint X-ray sources. These close binaries are thought to play an important role in the stability of the clusters by liberating energy and delaying the inevitable core collapse of globular clusters. The inventory of close binaries and their identification is therefore essential. This table contains some of the results, namely an X-ray source catalog, from XMM-Newton observations of the Galactic globular cluster NGC 2808. The authors use X-ray spectral and variability analysis combined with ultraviolet observations made with the XMM-Newton optical monitor and published data from the Hubble Space Telescope to identify sources associated with the clusters. They compare the results of their observations with estimates from population synthesis models. Five sources out of 96 X-ray sources detected above 4-sigma significance are likely to be related to NGC 2808. The authors find one quiescent neutron star low-mass X-ray binary candidate in the core of NGC 2808, and propose that the majority of the central sources in NGC 2808 are cataclysmic variables. An estimation leads to 20 +/- 10 cataclysmic variables with luminosity above 4.25 x 10<sup>31</sup> erg s<sup>-1</sup>. Millisecond pulsars could also be present in the core of NGC 2808, and some sources outside the half-mass radius could possibly be linked to the cluster. NGC 2808 was observed on February 1st 2005, for 41.8 kiloseconds (ks) with the three European Photon Imaging Cameras (EPIC MOS1, MOS2 and pn) on board the XMM-Newton observatory, in imaging mode, using a full frame window and a medium filter. This table was created by the HEASARC in February 2009 based on the electronic version of Table 2 from the paper which was obtained from the CDS (their catalog J/A+A/480/397 file table2.dat).

VLA-VIRMOS Deep Field 20-cm Source Catalog

The authors of this table conducted a deep survey (rms noise ~ 17 microJansky or uJy) with the Very Large Array (VLA) at 1.4 GHz, with a resolution of 6 arcseconds, of a 1 deg<sup>2</sup> region included in the VIRMOS VLT Deep Survey that is centered at RA and Dec (J2000.0) of 02 26 00, -04 30 00, hereafter the VLA-VIRMOS Deep Field, or VLA-VDF. In the same field, they already had multiband photometry down to I<sub>AB</sub> = 25, and spectroscopic observations were to be obtained during the VIRMOS VLT survey. The homogeneous sensitivity over the whole field allowed them to derive a complete sample of 1054 radio sources (5-sigma limit) down to a limit of 0.08 mJy. In their paper, the authors give a detailed description of the data reduction and of the analysis of the radio observations, with particular care to the effects of clean bias and bandwidth smearing, and of the methods used to obtain the catalog of radio sources. To estimate the effect of the resolution bias on their observations, they have modeled the effective angular-size distribution of the sources in their sample and they have used this distribution to simulate a sample of radio sources. Finally, they present the radio count distribution down to 0.08 mJy derived from the catalog. Their counts are in good agreement with the best fit derived from earlier surveys, and are about 50% higher than the counts in the Hubble Deep Field (HDF). The radio count distribution clearly shows, with extremely good statistics, the change in the slope for the sub-mJy radio sources. 19 of the 1054 radio sources were fitted with multiple components. In such cases, the authors list in the catalog an entry for each of the components, identified with a trailing letter (A, B, C or D) in the source name, and an entry for the whole source, identified with a trailing T in the source name. In these cases the total flux was calculated using the task TVSTAT, which allows the integration of the map values over irregular areas, and the sizes are the largest angular sizes. Thus, this catalog contains 1103 entries on 1054 sources, including 49 entries on individual components of composite sources. This table was created by the HEASARC in February 2012 based on <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/J/A+A/403/857">CDS Catalog J/A+A/403/857</a> file catalog.dat.

ROSAT 13-hour Field XMM-Newton X-Ray Source Catalog

This table contains the results of a deep X-ray survey conducted with XMM-Newton, centered on the UK ROSAT 13-hours deep field area. This region covers 0.18 square degrees, and is the first of the two areas covered with XMM-Newton as part of an extensive multi-wavelength survey designed to study the nature and evolution of the faint X-ray source population. This table contains the final catalog of 225 sources. Within the central 9 arcminutes, 68% of the source positions are accurate to 2 arcseconds, making optical follow-up relatively straightforward. The authors construct the N(>S) relation in four energy bands: 0.2-0.5, 0.5-2, 2-5 and 5-10 keV. In all but the highest energy band, they find that the source counts can be represented by a double power law with a bright-end slope consistent with the Euclidean case and a break around 10<sup>-14</sup> erg cm<sup>-2</sup> s<sup>-1</sup>. Below this flux, the counts exhibit a flattening. The 13-hours deep field is centered on the sky coordinates RA(J2000) = 13 34 37.1, Dec (J2000) = +37 53 02.2. The XMM-Newton observations were carried out in three separate revolutions during June 2001 for a total exposure time of 200ks. Approximately 40% of the total observation time was affected by high particle background flares, arising from soft protons hitting the detector. The data were therefore temporally filtered to remove these high-background periods. Filtering reduced the total useful exposure time from ~200 ks to ~120 ks. This table was created by the HEASARC in August 2007 based on <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/J/MNRAS/362/1371">CDS catalog J/MNRAS/362/1371</a> file table9.dat.

Spitzer Deep Wide-Field Survey 8 micron Combined Catalog

The Spitzer Deep, Wide-Field Survey (SDWFS) is a four-epoch infrared survey of 10 square degrees in the Boötes field of the NOAO Deep Wide-Field Survey using the IRAC instrument on the Spitzer Space Telescope. SDWFS, a Spitzer Cycle 4 Legacy project, occupies a unique position in the area-depth survey space defined by other Spitzer surveys. The four epochs that make up SDWFS permit - for the first time - the selection of infrared-variable and high proper motion objects over a wide field on timescales of years. Because of its large survey volume, SDWFS is sensitive to galaxies out to z ~ 3 with relatively little impact from cosmic variance for all but the richest systems. The SDWFS data sets will thus be especially useful for characterizing galaxy evolution beyond z ~ 1.5.The delivery consists of four band-matched catalogs for each of the four epochs and for the total SDWFS coadd data, a total of 20 catalogs. Vega magnitudes are reported for each IRAC band: 3.6, 4.5, 5.8, and 8 microns. Each source was measured three ways: 4 arcsec diameter aperture, 6 arcsec diameter aperture, and Kron radius aperture (MAG_AUTO in SExtractor). Source coordinates correspond to 2MASS catalog positions to within 0.2 arcsec. The tabulated uncertainties are twice the SExtractor (statistical only) uncertainties as an attempt to account for systematic uncertainties.

C2D Perseus Epoch 1 Transient Sources Catalog

The Cores to Disks (C2D) Spitzer Legacy Program used all three Spitzer instruments (IRAC, MIPS, and IRS) to observe sources that span the evolutionary sequence from molecular cores to protoplanetary disks, encompassing a wide range of cloud masses, stellar masses, and star-forming environments. In addition to targeting about 150 known compact cores, it surveyed with IRAC and MIPS (3.6-70 mum) the entire areas of five of the nearest large molecular clouds for new candidate protostars and substellar objects as faint as 0.001 solar luminosities. C2D observed with IRAC and MIPS about 190 systems likely to be in the early stages of planetary system formation (ages up to about 10 Myr), probing the evolution of the circumstellar dust, the raw material for planetary cores.The Perseus Transient Sources Catalogs list the transient sources detected above 1.6 mJy in the MIPS observations of the Perseus molecular cloud region.

eHOPS Aquila SED Data Catalog

The Extension of HOPS Out to 500 ParSecs (eHOPS) project used archival data to survey all the major star forming molecular clouds within 500 pc of the Sun, except Orion (which was surveyed by HOPS). The first eHOPS data release covers the Aquila molecular clouds (d ~ 436 pc). For every source detected in the Herschel/PACS bands, the eHOPS-Aquila catalog contains 1-850 micron SEDs assembled from 2MASS, Spitzer, Herschel, WISE, and JCMT/SCUBA-2 data. A total of 172 protostars are found in Aquila, tightly concentrated in the molecular filaments that thread the clouds. Of these, 72 (42%) are Class 0 protostars, 53 (31%) Class I protostars, 43 (25%) are flat-spectrum protostars, and 4 (2%) are Class II sources. Ten of the Class 0 protostars are young PACS Bright Red Sources similar to those discovered in Orion. eHOPS compares the SEDs to a grid of radiative transfer models to constrain the luminosities, envelope densities, and envelope masses of the protostars.

Fermi LAT Low-Energy Events Catalog

LAT Low-Energy events (LLE) are automatically produced for each GBM GRB in the GBM Trigger Catalog if the GBM GRB has a position within 90 degrees of the LAT boresight. LLE data are generated for a given position in the sky (RA, DEC) and for a given interval of time (T0, T1) corresponding to the GBM Burst. The standard LLE selection applied to the downloaded events is the following: (FswGamState==0 && TkrNumTracks>0 && (GltEngine==6 || GltEngine==7) && EvtEnergyCorr > 0) && (FT1ZenithTheta<90.0) && (FT1Theta<=90.0) && (((cos(FT1Dec*0.0174533)*(FT1Ra - (RA)))<sup>2</sup> + (FT1Dec - (DEC))<sup>2</sup>) < PSF(EvtEnergyCorr, Theta) where <pre> * FswGamState is the status of the Flight Sofware Gamma filter. We require that the event is a gamma-ray (FswGamState==0). * TkrNumTracks is the number of tracks in the tracker. We require that there is at least one track. This requires the event to have a reconstructed direction. * GltEngine is the status of the <a href="https://oraweb.slac.stanford.edu/pls/slacquery/DOCUMENTS.DetailedIndex?PROJECT=GLAST&P_DOC_ID=776972">Global LAT Trigger</a>. We require that GltEngine equals 6 or 7, which corresponds to taking all the events that trigger in the tracker TKR but did not have a region of interest (ROI) associated (GltEngine 7) or all the events that pass the CalHI (at least 1 GeV in one crystal). * EvtEnergyCorr is the best estimation of the reconstructed energy, especially at low energy. * Theta is the reconstructed source direction (Theta) with respect the LAT boresight. * PSF(EvtEnergyCorr, Theta) represents the functional form of the containment radius of the Point Spread Function (PSF) of the LAT. </pre> The exact cut used to select the events is saved in the keyword LLECUT in the primary header of each LLE file. If the GBM catalog position of the burst is updated (due to a refined localization from LAT or Swift or from subsequent on ground analysis), the LLE data are automatically updated and new versions of the LLE files are produced. In some cases, LLE data are manually generated (using a better localization which may or may not have been used in the GBM Trigger Catalog). For each updated position, the version of the corresponding LLE files increases by one. There are six FITS files provided for each entry: the LLE event file, the time-binned spectrum (CSPEC) file, the CSPEC response (RSP) file, and the extracted burst spectrum (the PHA-I file) for the entire duration of the burst, an LLE event file with same time cut as the RSP and PHA-I files, and a LAT pointing and livetime history file. There are six FITS files provided for each entry: the LLE event file (gll_lle_bnNNNNNNNNN_vMM.fit), the time-binned spectrum (CSPEC) file (gll_cspec_bnNNNNNNNNN_vMM.pha), the CSPEC response (RSP) file (gll_cspec _bnNNNNNNNNN_vMM.rsp), and the extracted burst spectrum (the PHA-I file) for the entire duration of the burst (gll_pha_bnNNNNNNNNN_vMM.fit), an LLE event file with same time cut as the RSP and PHA-I files (gll_selected_bnNNNNNNNNN_vMM.fit), and a LAT pointing and livetime history file (gll_pt_bnNNNNNNNNN_vMM.fit). The LLE event file format is similar to the LAT photon file format with some exceptions. Because the LLE data are tightly connected to a particular object (position and time), the FITS keyword OBJECT has been added to the file. Generally, OBJECT will correspond to the entry of the GBM Trigger Catalog used to generate LLE data and corresponds to the "name" column in the FERMILLE table (and in the GBM Trigger Catalog table). For similar reasons, the position of the object used to select LLE file is written in the header of each extension of each LLE file. PROC_VER corresponds to the iteration of the analysis of LLE data. PASS_VER corresponds to the iteration for the reconstruction and the general event classification (Pass6, Pass7, etc.). VERSION corresponds to the version of the LLE product for this particular event. The update of a location of a GRB will increase the number of VERSION in the file, but will leave the PASS_VER and PROC_VER unchanged. The CSPEC file is obtained from directly binning the TTE files. It provides a series of spectra, accumulated every second, from -1000 to 1000 seconds around the burst. Each spectrum is binned in 50 energy channels, ranging typically from 10 MeV to 100 GeV. The format of the CSPEC file is tailored to satisfy rmfit standards, and it is not directly usable in XSPEC. The CSPEC Response file (the RSP file) is the detector response matrix calculated from Monte Carlo simulation, and it corresponds to a single response matrix for each Gamma-Ray Burst or Solar Flare. The PHA-I file contains the count spectrum. The PHA-I file is created from the same time interval used to compute the response matrix. The selected events file is identical to the LLE event file with an additional time selection applied to ma

NRAO VLA Sky Survey Catalog

This table contains the National Radio Astronomy Observatory (NRAO) Very Large Array (VLA) Sky Survey, the so-called NVSS Catalog. The NVSS Catalog covers the sky north of the J2000.0 Declination of -40 degrees (82% of the celestial sphere) at 1.4 GHz. The principal data products of the NVSS were (1) a set of 2326 4 degree by 4 degree continuum "cubes" with three planes containing Stokes I, Q, and U images, plus (2) a catalog of almost 2 million discrete sources stronger than a flux density S of about 2.5 mJy. The images all have 45 arcsecond FWHM angular resolution and nearly uniform sensitivity. Their rms brightness fluctuations are approximately 0.45 mJy/beam = 0.14 K (Stokes I) and approximately 0.29 mJy/beam = 0.09 K (Stokes Q and U). The rms uncertainties in right ascension and declination vary from <= ~1 arcsecond for the 400,000 sources stronger than 15 mJy to 7 arcseconds at the survey limit. The NVSS was made as a service to the astronomical community. All data products, user software, and updates were released via the World-Wide Web as soon as they were produced and verified. For more complete information on the NVSS, please refer to the NVSS website at <a href="http://www.cv.nrao.edu/nvss/">http://www.cv.nrao.edu/nvss/</a> This table was created by the HEASARC in October 2002 based on the file <a href="ftp://ftp.cv.nrao.edu/nvss/CATALOG/NVSSCatalog.text.gz">ftp://ftp.cv.nrao.edu/nvss/CATALOG/NVSSCatalog.text.gz</a> provided by the NVSS Catalog's authors.

Fermi All-Sky Variability Analysis Second Catalog of Flaring Gamma-Ray Sources

The Fermi All-sky Variability Analysis (FAVA) is an analysis technique that searches for flaring sources in data collected by the Large Area Telescope (LAT) onboard NASA's Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope. It uses a photometric approach to blindly search for flares over the entire sky, and a likelihood analysis to precisely locate them and to measure their spectra. This catalog contains the flares and sources detected by running FAVA over the first 7.4 years of Fermi mission, from Modified Julian Date (MJD) 54682 (2008-08-04) to 57391 (2016-01-04). The analysis has been run in weekly time bins and in two independent energy bands, 100-800 MeV and 0.8-300 GeV. The detection threshold applied to the catalog flares is equivalent to 6 sigma (pre trials). The sources in the 2FAV are identified as clusters of flares. Their position and the corresponding error are derived from a weighted average of the best localized flares in the cluster. Likely gamma-ray counterparts, based on positional coincidence, are provided for the sources. This database table was first ingested by the HEASARC in July 2017 using electronic data obtained from the Fermi Science Support Center (FSSC). That data is available at <a href="http://fermi.gsfc.nasa.gov/ssc/data/access/lat/fava_catalog/">http://fermi.gsfc.nasa.gov/ssc/data/access/lat/fava_catalog/</a>.

HaloSat Master Catalog

This table records high-level information for the observations obtained with HaloSat and provides access to the HaloSat data archive. HaloSat is the first astrophysics-focused CubeSat funded by NASA's Astrophysics Division (PI P. Kaaret, University of Iowa). HaloSat is designed to map soft X-ray oxygen line emissions across the sky in order to constrain the mass and spatial distribution of hot gas in the Milky Way. HaloSat was launched from the NASA Wallops Flight Facility and delivered to the International Space Station on May 21, 2018. HaloSat was deployed into orbit on July 13, 2018. The spacecraft and science instrument commissioning phase ended on October 16, 2018, and science operations started after that. Initially approved to operate for 12 months, HaloSat successfully collected science data from October 15, 2018, until September 29, 2020, effectively doubling the mission lifetime. HaloSat reentered Earth's atmosphere on January 4, 2021. To trace the Galactic halo, HaloSat is equipped with a non-focusing instrument, comprised of three independent silicon drift detectors (SDD14, SDD38, SDD54) operating in the energy range of 0.4 - 7.0 keV with a field of view of 10 deg in diameter and an energy resolution of 84.8 +/- 2.7 eV at 677 eV and 137.4 +/- 0.9 eV at 5895 eV. The observing strategy was to divide the sky into 333 positions (HaloSat fields) and acquire a minimum of 8000 detector-seconds for each position throughout the initial 12 months of operations. After launch, additional positions were added to the initial 333 positions. HaloSat observations of the chosen fields are divided in intervals of time such that the data files do not exceed 2GB. Each observation is labeled with a sequence number. This database table contains one record for each sequence number and includes parameters related to the observation. The contents of this database table are generated at the HEASARC using information from the data files. The table was last updated in April 2023. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .

Parkes Southern Radio Source Catalog, Version 1.01

PKSCAT90 is the Parkes Catalog (1990) and consists of radio and optical data for 8,264 radio sources. It covers essentially all the sky south of declination +27 degrees but largely excludes the Galactic Plane and the Magellanic Cloud regions. The latter zones have been the subject of other, specialist surveys. A few data errors in Version 1.00 have been corrected in the present edition (see below). This version of the Parkes Radio Source Catalog is entitled "PKSCAT90 Version 1.01." The original Parkes radio catalog was compiled from major radio surveys with the Parkes radiotelescope at frequencies of 408 MHz and 2700 MHz. This work spanned a period of nearly 20 years and was undertaken largely by John Bolton and his colleagues. Since then, improved positions, optical identifications, and redshifts have been obtained for many of the sources in the catalog. Furthermore, flux densities at several frequencies have supplemented the original surveys so that the measurements now cover the frequency range 80-22,000 MHz. However, coverage at the highest frequencies is still sparse. Important contributions to the usefulness of the catalog have been radio data from the Molonglo 408-MHz survey and the 80-MHz Culgoora measurements of Slee et al. PKSCAT90 should thus be regarded as a compendium of radio and optical data about southern radio sources. However, at the moment, it contains only sources originally found in the Parkes 2700-MHz survey (see e.g. Part 14, Bolton et al, 1979, Aust J Phys, Astrophys Suppl, No. 46 and references therein.) The original radio survey data of the catalog and the optical identifications have been published in a series of papers in the Australian Journal of Physics (see above reference). The associated optical spectral data on which redshifts were obtained has also been published, mainly in Astrophysical Journal and Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society. About the completeness levels of the catalog in various parts of the sky: users should note that the sky zone between -4 and +4 degrees has been the subject of a re-survey and is now complete to 0.25 Jy. The author Alan Wright notes that "PKSCAT90 was produced at a time when relational databases were in their infancy. In the future we anticipate making the individual data sources available separately -- through such search systems as SIMBAD -- rather than in an 'omnibus' catalog like PKSCAT90. For both the Northern and Southern hemispheres, superior and deeper finding surveys now exist: the 87GB catalog in the North (Gregory and Condon et al. 1991, ApJ, 75, 1011, <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/VIII/14">CDS Catalog VIII/14</a>) and the PMN catalogs (Griffith and Wright 1993, AJ, 105, 1666, <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/VIII/38">CDS Catalog VIII/38</a>, available at the HEASARC as the PMN table) in the South." This table was updated by the HEASARC in July 2015 based on <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/VIII/15">CDS Catalog VIII/15</a> file pkscat90.dat, replacing a version based on the original (version 1) PKSCAT90, which was created in 1995.

CGRO/BATSE 4B Catalog

This database table comprises the 4th BATSE Gamma-Ray Burst Catalog, hereafter referred to as 4B. It specifies the locations and times for 1637 triggered gamma-ray bursts observed from 19 April, 1991 until 29 August, 1996. It therefore includes the data from the 3B catalog. The only revisions from the 3B catalog are improved locations for the trigger #s 741, 2311, and 3155. Bursts since the end of the 1B catalog (March 1992) occurred when the Compton Gamma-Ray Observatory (CGRO) tape recorders were experiencing numerous errors. Consequently, there are gaps in the data of many bursts that preclude valid measurement of peak flux, peak rate, fluence, or duration. Peak rates on the 1 second timescale from each detector are almost always available. These data (called MAXBC rates) can be used to determine burst location. Previous difficulties with this data type have been largely removed, and we now believe that the systematic errors for MAXBC-located bursts are the same as for bursts located with other data types. It is still true however, that the MAXBC-located bursts usually have larger statistical errors than would be the case if another data type were available. The parameter called comments_position in this database contains comments on MAXBC-located bursts. A number of CGRO and BATSE flight software changes have significantly reduced the problem of data gaps since March of 1993. This database table was created by the HEASARC in March 1999, based on data supplied by the CGRO Science Support Center. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .

SWIRE/Chandra Lockman Hole Field X-Ray Source Catalog

The authors have carried out a moderate-depth (70 ks), contiguous 0.7 square degrees Chandra survey in the Lockman Hole Field of the Spitzer/SWIRE Legacy Survey coincident with a completed, ultra-deep VLA survey with deep optical and near-infrared imaging in-hand. The primary motivation is to distinguish starburst galaxies and active galactic nuclei (AGNs), including the significant, highly obscured (log N<sub>H</sub> > 23 cm<sup>-2</sup>) subset. Chandra has detected 775 X-ray sources to a limiting broadband (0.3 - 8 keV) flux of ~4 x 10<sup>-16</sup> erg cm<sup>-2</sup> s<sup>-1</sup>. This table contains the X-ray catalog, fluxes, hardness ratios, and multi-wavelength fluxes. The log N versus log S agrees with those of previous surveys covering similar flux ranges. The Chandra and Spitzer flux limits are well matched: 771 (99%) of the X-ray sources have infrared (IR) or optical counterparts, and 333 have MIPS 24-micron detections. There are four optical-only X-ray sources and four with no visible optical/IR counterpart. The very deep (~2.7 microJansky rms) VLA data yield 251 (> 4 sigma) radio counterparts, 44% of the X-ray sources in the field. The authors confirm that the tendency for lower X-ray flux sources to be harder is primarily due to absorption. As expected, there is no correlation between observed IR and X-ray fluxes. Optically bright, type 1, and red AGNs lie in distinct regions of the IR versus X-ray flux plots, demonstrating the wide range of spectral energy distributions in this sample and providing the potential for classification/source selection. Many optically bright sources, which lie outside the AGN region in the optical versus X-ray plots (f<sub>r</sub>/f<sub>x</sub> > 10), lie inside the region predicted for red AGNs in IR versus X-ray plots, consistent with the presence of an active nucleus. More than 40% of the X-ray sources in the VLA field are radio-loud using the classical definition of R<sub>L</sub>. The majority of these are red and relatively faint in the optical so that the use of R<sub>L</sub> to select those AGNs with the strongest radio emission becomes questionable. Using the 24-micron to radio flux ratio (q<sub>24</sub>) instead results in 13 of the 147 AGNs with sufficient data being classified as radio-loud, in good agreement with the ~10% expected for broad-lined AGNs based on optical surveys. The authors conclude that q<sub>24</sub> is a more reliable indicator of radio-loudness. Use of R<sub>L</sub> should be confined to the optically selected type 1 AGN.

NGC 1512/NGC 1510 XMM-Newton X-Ray Point Source Catalog

The galaxy NGC 1512 is interacting with the smaller galaxy NGC 1510 and shows a peculiar morphology, characterized by two extended arms immersed in an HI disc whose size is about four times larger than the optical diameter of NGC 1512. The authors have performed the first deep X-ray observation of the galaxies NGC 1512 and NGC 1510 with XMM-Newton to gain information on the population of X-ray sources and diffuse emission in this system of interacting galaxies. They have identified and classified the sources detected in the XMM-Newton field of view by means of spectral analysis, hardness-ratios calculated with a Bayesian method, X-ray variability, and cross-correlations with catalogs in optical, infrared, and radio wavelengths. They also made use of archival Swift (X-ray) and Australia Telescope Compact Array (radio) data to better constrain the nature of the sources detected with XMM-Newton. They detected 106 sources in the energy range of 0.2 - 12 keV, out of which 15 are located within the D<sub>25</sub> regions of NGC 1512 and NGC 1510 and at least six sources coincide with the extended arms. They identified and classified six background objects and six foreground stars. In the reference paper, they discuss the nature of a source within the D<sub>25</sub> ellipse of NGC 1512, whose properties indicate a quasi-stellar object or an intermediate ultra-luminous X-ray source. Taking into account the contribution of low-mass X-ray binaries and active galactic nuclei, the number of high-mass X-ray binaries detected within the D<sub>25</sub> region of NGC 1512 is consistent with the star formation rate obtained in previous works based on radio, infrared optical, and UV wavelengths. The authors detected diffuse X-ray emission from the interior region of NGC 1512 with a plasma temperature of kT = 0.68(0.31-0.87) keV and a 0.3 - 10 keV X-ray luminosity of 1.3E+38erg/s, after correcting for unresolved discrete sources. The galaxy pair NGC 1512/1510 was observed with XMM-Newton (ObsID: 0693160101) between 2012 June 16 (20:31 UTC) and 2012 June 17 (16:24 UTC) in a single, 63-ks exposure observation. The data analysis was performed through the XMM-Newton Science Analysis System (SAS) software (version 12.0.1). The observation was largely contaminated by high background due to proton flares. After rejecting time intervals affected by high background, the net good exposure time was reduced to 26.0 ks for PN, 39.8 ks for the MOS1 and 34.8 ks for the MOS2. For each instrument, the data were divided into five energy bands: <pre> B<sub>1</sub> : 0.2 - 0.5 keV B<sub>2</sub> : 0.5 - 1.0 keV B<sub>3</sub> : 1.0 - 2.0 keV B<sub>4</sub> : 2.0 - 4.5 keV B<sub>5</sub> : 4.5 - 12.0 keV </pre> For the PN, data were filtered to include only single events (PATTERN = 0) in the energy band B__1, and single and double events (PATTERN <= 4) for the other energy bands. The authors excluded the energy range 7.2 - 9.2 keV to reduce the background produced by strong fluorescence lines in the outer detector area. For the MOS, single to quadruple events (PATTERN <= 12) were selected. The source detection procedure is described in Section 2.1 of the reference paper. In the final step, the authors adopted a minimum likelihood of L = 6. They removed false detections (artifacts on the detectors or diffuse emission structures) by visual inspection. They detected 106 total point sources in the NGC 1512/1510 field of view. This table was created by the HEASARC in July 2014 based on <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/J/A+A/566/A115">CDS Catalog J/A+A/566/A115</a> files tableb1.dat and tableb2.dat.

VLA Lockman Hole 3-GHz Radio Source Catalog

This table is from the second of two papers describing the observations and source catalogs derived from sensitive 3-GHz images of the Lockman Hole North using the Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array (VLA). In their paper, the authors describe the reduction and cataloguing process, which yielded an image with 8-arcsecond resolution and instrumental noise of sigma<sub>n</sub> = 1.01 µJy/beam (µJy/beam) rms (before primary beam corrections) and a catalog of 558 sources detected above 5 * sigma<sub>n</sub>. The authors also include details of how they estimate source spectral indices across the 2-GHz VLA bandwidth, finding a median index of -0.76 +/- 0.04. Stacking of source spectra reveals a flattening of spectral index with decreasing flux density. In the reference paper, the authors present a source count derived from the catalog. They show a traditional count estimate compared with a completely independent estimate made via a P(D) confusion analysis, and find very good agreement. Cross-matches of the catalog with X-ray, optical, infrared, radio, and redshift catalogs are also presented. The X-ray, optical and infrared data, as well as AGN selection criteria allow them to classify 10% as radio-loud AGN, 28% as radio-quiet AGN, and 58% as star-forming galaxies, with only 4% unclassified. Observations were made with the VLA in the C configuration at S band, with a frequency range of 2 to 4GHz, with a total of roughly 50 hours of on-source time in 2012. The HEASARC has converted the radio and IR flux density units from those given in the original table (µJy and µJy/beam) to its standard units for radio flux densities (mJy and mJy/beam). This table was created by the HEASARC in April 2017 based on <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/J/MNRAS/462/2934">CDS Catalog J/MNRAS/462/2934</a> files cat3ghz.dat and catcrx.dat.

Wide Angle ROSAT Pointed Survey, Second Phase (WARPS-II) Clusters Catalog

This table contains the galaxy cluster catalog from the second, larger phase of the Wide Angle ROSAT Pointed Survey (WARPS), an X-ray selected survey for high-redshift galaxy clusters. WARPS is among the largest deep X-ray cluster surveys and is being used to study the properties and evolution of galaxy clusters. The WARPS-II sample contains 125 clusters serendipitously detected in a survey of 301 ROSAT PSPC pointed observations and covers a sky area of 56.7 deg<sup>2</sup>. Of these 125 clusters, 53 have not been previously reported in the literature. The authors have nearly complete spectroscopic follow-up of the clusters, which range in redshift from z = 0.029 to z = 0.92 with a median redshift of z = 0.29 and they find 59 clusters with z >= 0.3 (29 not previously reported in the literature) and 11 clusters with z >= 0.6 (6 not previously reported). They also define a statistically complete subsample of 102 clusters above a uniform flux limit of 6.5 x 10<sup>-14</sup> ergs/cm<sup>2</sup>/s (0.5 - 2.0 keV). In their paper, the authors also compare their redshifts, fluxes, and detection methods to other similar published cluster surveys and state that they find no serious issues with their measurements or completeness. The list of ROSAT pointings used in WARPS-II is given in Table 1 of the first reference paper. The WARPS-I cluster catalog (the second reference listed below) is also available in Browse as the WARPS table. This table was created by the HEASARC in September 2010 based on the combination of the electronic versions of Tables 2, 3, and 4 from the first reference paper which were obtained from the CDS (their catalog J/ApJS/176/374).
