Spitzer Wide-area InfraRed Extragalactic Survey XMM-LSS 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.
SHELA Combined Epoch 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).
COSMOS Cassata 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.The COSMOS Cassata Morphology Catalog includes concentration, asymmetry, gini, and M20 measurements within the Petrosian radius. The morphological parameters are combined to classify galaxies as early-types, disks and irregulars.
Fermi LAT Second Catalog of Gamma-Ray Pulsars (2PC)
This catalog summarizes 0.1 GeV gamma-ray pulsar detections using data acquired by the Large Area Telescope (LAT) on the Fermi satellite. These pulsars are neutron stars identified using LAT data through periodicity searches in gamma-ray and radio data around LAT unassociated source positions. The catalogued pulsars are divided into three groups: millisecond pulsars, young radio-loud pulsars, and young radio-quiet pulsars. This catalog summarizes results of the analysis of pulse profiles and energy spectra, and analysis of the off-peak phase intervals, and compares the gamma-ray properties with those in the radio, optical, and X-ray bands. Flux limits for pulsars with no observed gamma-ray emission are provided. This database was constructed by the HEASARC by combining the tabulated data in the psrcat.dat, spec.dat, offpk.dat and refs.dat obtained from <a href="http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2013yCat..22080017A">http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2013yCat..22080017A</a>.

eROSITA All-Sky Survey Master Catalog
The eROSITA-DE DR1 comprises data from the first six months of the SRG/eROSITA all-sky survey (eRASS1) whose proprietary rights lie with the German eROSITA consortium. Data rights are split by Galactic longitude (l) and latitude (b), with a division marked by the great circle passing through the Galactic poles (l,b)=(0,+90);(0,-90) and the Galactic Center Sgr A* (l,b)=(359.94423568,-0.04616002): data with -0.05576432< l <179.94423568 degrees (Eastern Galactic hemisphere) belong to the Russian consortium, while data with 359.94423568 > l >179.94423568 degrees (Western Galactic hemisphere) belong to eROSITA-DE. The Western Galactic hemisphere observations were released to the public through the <a href="https://erosita.mpe.mpg.de/dr1/">eROSITA-DE site</a> on 31 January 2024. In the Early Data Release (EDR), the data taken during the Calibration and Performance Verification (Cal-PV) phase were released and are available in <a href="/W3Browse/erosita/erosmaster.html">EROSMASTER</a>. The reprocessed EDR observations are not part of DR1. The primary data products of the eROSITA-DE DR1 consist of calibrated event files, which contain the information generated by the cameras used during the eRASS1 observations. The eSASS4DR1 pipeline creates these event files after the received telemetry data from eROSITA of each observation has been reformatted, packaged, and archived by a pre-processor. Note that the coverage of the sky is not uniform, i.e., not all observations have been performed with all seven eROSITA telescope modules (TMs). The eROSITA-DE team has divided the eRASS1 observations into 4700 sky tiles for practical purposes. Each sky tile has a size of 3.6x3.6 square degrees, overlapping by approximately 20 arcmin. Of the 4700 sky tiles, eROSITA-DE have proprietary rights on 2248 of them, and 199 sky tiles have shared rights between the German and Russian consortiums. eROSITA-DE DR1 comprises 2447 sky tiles in total, of which 199 have partial eROSITA-DE data. The FITS table here, provides the mapping between sky-tile identification and sky coordinates for the 2447 sky tiles. In addition, the 0.2-2.3 (<a href="/W3Browse/erosita/erass1main.html">ERASS1MAIN</a>) and 2.3-5 keV (3-band; <a href="/W3Browse/erosita/erass1hard.html">ERASS1HARD</a>) source catalogs are also available. This database table was created by the HEASARC in August 2024 based on the FITS file of the survey field boundaries available from the eROSITA-DE <a href="https://erosita.mpe.mpg.de/dr1/AllSkySurveyData_dr1/">DR1 site</a>.

Einstein Catalog IPC Slew Survey
This database table contains the list of sources detected in the IPC Slew Survey. It was created in March 1992 and contains 819 entries. The original IPC Slew Survey source list was released on CD-ROM and contained 1067 sources. The list was updated in 1991 to remedy a software bug which omitted a thin slice of RA near 24h; the bug fix yielded 8 additional sources, to bring the total to 1075. The list, however, was found to contain a large fraction (10 to 15 percent) of unreliable sources, especially those sources with <= 5 photons. The unreliable sources were rejected in producing the latest version of the source list, so that it now has an estimated false source rate of only 2 percent, and contains 256 fewer sources than the previous version. The previous version of the source list, with 1075 sources, has been retained in a database called OLDIPCSLEW. The HEASARC implemented this database table in March 1992.

SAGE MIPS 24 micron Catalog
The Spitzer Space Telescope Survey of the Large Magellanic Cloud Legacy Project Surveying the Agents of a Galaxy's Evolution (SAGE) traces the life cycle of observable matter that drives the evolution of a galaxy's appearance. SAGE has revealed over 6 million sources including ~150,000 evolved stars, ~50,000 young stellar objects and the diffuse interstellar medium with column densities > 1.2×1021 cm -2. The data will provide fundamental insights into the physical processes of the interstellar medium, the formation of new stars and the injection of mass by evolved stars and their relationships on the galaxy-wide scale of the Large Magellanic Cloud.To be included in a Catalog, each source has to meet a number of criteria. The source had to be nearly point like with a correlation value 0.89. In regions where there is a significant structure in the surrounding region (identified as having a sigma > 0.25 in a 120" width square box), the source had to have a correlation value >0.91. There are a small number of sources with 24 um magnitudes between 4 and 8 which have unusually low uncertainties (i.e., high S/N). The origin of these sources is under investigation and seems to be related to edge effects in the AORs. In the meantime, these sources were removed from the 24 um catalogs. Finally, all sources had to have signal-to-noise values >5. The final catalogs likely have a few remaining unreliable sources, but we estimate this to be at the less than 1% error.The Full Lists contain ALL the sources extracted from the mosaics, thus a user should be aware that it contains spurious sources. The full list may be useful to search for the potential counterparts to known sources.
MAXI/GSC 7-Year High and Low Galactic Latitude Source Catalog (3MAXI)
This table combines the published X-ray source catalogs of the high galactic latitude (|b| > 10<sup>o</sup>), Kawamuro et 2018, and the low galactic latitude (|b| < 10<sup>o</sup>), Hori et al. 2018, based on 7 years of MAXI Gas Slit Camera (GSC) data from 2009 August 13 to 2016 July 31. The low galactic latitude catalog contains 221 sources with a significance threshold > 6.5 sigma. The low galactic faintest source has a flux of 5.2 x 10<sup>-12</sup> erg cm<sup>-2</sup> s<sup>-1</sup> (or an intensity of 0.43 mCrab) in the 4-10 keV band. The high galactic latitude catalog contains 686 sources detected at significances >= 6.5 sigma in the 4-10 keV band. The high galactic 4-10 keV sensitivity reaches ~0.48 mCrab, or ~5.9 x 10<sup>-12</sup> erg cm<sup>-2</sup> s<sup>-1</sup>, over half of the survey area. The same data-screening criteria were applied to obtain the low and high galactic catalogs. In their papers the authors describe the detection method, the statistical quantities derived for each source and their variability. To derive a counterpart, each source was cross-matched with the Swift/BAT 105-month catalog (BAT105; Oh et al. 2018), the Uhuru fourth catalog (4U; Forman et al. 1978), the RXTE All-Sky Monitor long-term observed source table (XTEASMLONG16), Meta-Catalog of X-Ray Detected Clusters of Galaxies (MCXC; Piffaretti et al. 2011), the XMM-Newton Slew Survey Catalog (XMMSL217), and the ROSAT All-Sky Survey Bright Source Catalog (1RXS; Voges et al. 1999). Seven of the sources in the low galactic latitudes were detected by binning the data differently (source numbers 215-221 in the catalog named 73-day sources), and, similarly, four of the sources in the high galactic latitude catalog named transient sources. The parameters in the combined table include the source name (3MAXI), the position and its error, the detection significances and fluxes in the 4-10 keV, 3-4 keV bands and 10-20 keV bands the hardness ratios (HR1: 3-4 keV, 4-10 keV and HR2: 4-10 keV, 10-20 keV), excess variance in the 4-10 keV lightcurve and information on the likely counterpart. The high galactic catalogs also reports the flux in the 3-10 keV, an additional hardness (HR3: 3-10 keV and 10-20 keV) and an additional parameter representing variability. The hardness ratios are defined as H-S/H+S were S and H are the soft- and hard-band fluxes, respectively. This table was created by the HEASARC in April 2021. It is a combination of the 7-year low- and high-latitude MAXI source catalogs published on ApJS. The data for the low-galactic latitude and the high-galactic latitude were downloaded from the ApJS electronic version of the Hori et al. 2018 ApJS 235,7 and Kawamuro et al. 2018 ApJS 238,33 papers respectively. The low-latitude data included in this table are from tables 4, 5, 6, 7 of the Hori paper that report the X-ray sources detected (214 sources, table 4), their possible identification (table 5), the transient sources discovered binning the data on 73 days period (7 sources, table 5) and their identification (table 6). The high-latitude data included in this table are from the tables 1,2,3 of the Kawamuro paper that report the X-ray sources detected (682 sources in table 1), their identifications (table 2), and the transient sources (4 sources in table 3). The low and high galactic latitude source catalogs provide for each individual source similar parameters for the X-ray properties with the high-latitude having three additional parameters, specifically, the flux in the 3-10 keV energy range, the 3-10/10-20-keV hardness ratio, and a time variability test. These parameters are kept in the HEASARC combined table and set to "blank" values for the low-latitude sources. The four sources in the high-latitude catalog named transient sources have only fluxes in the 4-10 keV band and no other fluxes in the other energy bands or the hardness ratio are reported. The HEASARC combined table includes a field to identify whether the source is from the low-latitude paper or the high-latitude paper and also maintains the source numbers that were published in the original catalogs.

Tycho-2 Catalog of the 2.5 Million Brightest Stars
The Hipparcos and Tycho catalogs are the primary products of the European Space Agency's astrometric mission, Hipparcos. The satellite, which operated for four years, returned high quality scientific data from November 1989 to March 1993. The Tycho-2 catalog is an astrometric reference catalog containing positions and proper motions as well as two-color photometric data for the 2.5 million brightest stars in the sky. The Tycho-2 positions and magnitudes are based on precisely the same observations as the original Tycho catalog (hereafter Tycho-1; see <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/I/239">CDS Cat. I/239</a>) collected by the star mapper of the ESA Hipparcos satellite, but Tycho-2 is much bigger and slightly more precise, owing to a more advanced reduction technique. Components of double stars with separations down to 0.8 arcsec are included. Proper motions precise to about 2.5 mas/yr are given as derived from a comparison with the Astrographic Catalogue and 143 other ground-based astrometric catalogs, all reduced to the Hipparcos celestial coordinate system. Tycho-2 supersedes in most applications Tycho-1, as well as the ACT (<a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/I/246">CDS Cat. I/246</a>) and the TRC (CDS Cat. I/250) catalogs based on Tycho-1. Supplement-1 (not part of this HEASARC database but available at <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/I/259/suppl_1.dat.gz">https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/I/259/suppl_1.dat.gz</a>) lists stars from the Hipparcos and Tycho-1 catalogs which are not in Tycho-2. Supplement-2 (not part of this HEASARC database but available at <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/I/259/suppl_2.dat.gz">https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/I/259/suppl_2.dat.gz</a>) lists 1146 Tycho-1 stars which are probably either false or heavily disturbed. The principal characteristics of the Tycho-2 catalog are summarized below. By means of proper motions the positions are transferred to the year 2000.0, the epoch of the catalog.

DeepDrill CDFS 3.6 micron 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).
VLA ELAIS N1, N2, N3 Fields 20-cm Source Catalog
The authors have used the Very Large Array (VLA) in C configuration to carry out a sensitive 20-cm radio survey of regions of the sky that have been surveyed in the far-infrared (FIR) over the wavelength range 5 -200 microns (µm) with ISO (Infrared Space Observatory) as part of the European Large-Area ISO Survey (ELAIS). As usual in surveys based on a relatively small number of overlapping VLA pointings, the flux limit varies over the area surveyed: from a 5-sigma limit of 0.135 mJy over an area of 0.12 deg<sup>2</sup> to 1.15 mJy or better over the whole region covered of 4.22 deg<sup>2</sup>. In their paper, the authors present the complete radio catalog of 867 sources, 428 of which form a complete sample in the flux range 0.2 - 1.0 mJy. These regions of the sky have previously been surveyed to shallower flux limits at 20 cm with the VLA as part of the VLA D-configuration NVSS (full width at half-maximum, FWHM = 45arcseconds) and VLA-B configuration FIRST (FWHM = 5 arcseconds) surveys. This whole survey has a nominal 5-sigma flux limit a factor of 2 below that of the NVSS; 3.4 deg<sup>2</sup> of the survey reaches the nominal flux limit of the FIRST survey and 1.5 deg<sup>2</sup> reaches 0.25 mJy, a factor of 4 below the nominal FIRST survey limit. In addition, this survey is at a resolution intermediate between the two surveys and thus is well suited for a comparison of the reliability and resolution-dependent surface brightness effects that affect interferometric radio surveys. The authors have carried out a detailed comparison of their survey and these two independent surveys in order to assess the reliability and completeness of each. Considering the whole sample, they found that to the 5-sigma nominal limits of 2.3 and 1.0 mJy, respectively, the NVSS and FIRST surveys have a completeness of 96<sup>+2</sup><sub>-3</sub> and 89<sup>+2</sup><sub>-3</sub> % and a reliability of 99<sup>+1</sup><sub>-2</sub> and 94<sup>+2</sup><sub>-2</sub> %. The radio observations were obtained of three ISO ELAIS survey regions in the Northern celestial hemisphere (N1 1610+5430, N2 1636+4115 and N3 1429+3306) (see Table 1 of the reference paper for the details of the fields and the individual pointings). The observations are made with the Very Large Array (VLA) radio telescope at 1.4 GHz (20 cm) in the VLA C configuration (maximum baseline 3.4 km) with an angular resolution (FWHM) of ~15 arcseconds. The aim of these VLA observations was to obtain uniform coverage of the ELAIS regions with an rms noise limit of ~50 microJansky (µJy). This table contains the 921 components of 867 total sources detected at a level of >= 5 sigma (44 of which are multiple component sources as defined in Section 4.3 of the reference paper) over a total area of 4.222 deg<sup>2</sup>. There are also entries describing the properties of the total sources for the 44 multi-component sources (for which the positions have been computed as the flux-weighted average positions of their components), and thus this catalog contains 965 (921 + 44) entries. To filter out the latter, component_id values != 'T' should be selected when searching this table. This table was originally ingested by the HEASARC in August 2012, based on <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/J/MNRAS/302/222">CDS Catalog J/MNRAS/302/222</a> file table3.dat. It was last updated in September 2013 to remove a duplicate entry for the source ELAISR J142743+331323. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .
Omega Centauri Globular Cluster Chandra X-Ray Point Source Catalog
The authors analyzed a ~ 70 ks Chandra Advanced CCD Imaging Spectrometer (ACIS) exposure of the globular cluster Omega Cen (NGC 5139). The ~ 17' x 17' field of view fully encompasses three cluster core radii and almost twice the half-mass radius. They detected 180 sources to a limiting flux of ~ 4.3 x10 <sup>-16</sup> erg/cm<sup>2</sup>/s (L<sub>x</sub> = 1.2 x 10<sup>30</sup> erg/s at the 4.9 kpc distance to the cluster). After accounting for the number of active galactic nuclei and possible foreground stars among the detected X-ray sources, they estimate that 45-70 of the sources are cluster members. Four of the X-ray sources have previously been identified as accreting compact binaries in the cluster - three cataclysmic variables (CVs) and one quiescent neutron star. Correlating the Chandra positions with known variable stars yields 8 matches, of which 5 are probable cluster members that are likely to be binary stars with active coronae. Extrapolating these optical identifications to the remaining unidentified X-ray source population, the authors estimate that 20 - 35 of the sources are CVs and a similar number are active binaries. This likely represents most of the CVs in the cluster, but only a small fraction of all the active binaries. The authors place a 2-sigma upper limit of L<sub>x</sub> < 3 x 10<sup>30</sup> erg/s on the integrated luminosity of any additional faint, unresolved population of sources in the core of the cluster. In their paper, they explore the significance of these findings in the context of primordial versus dynamical channels for CV formation. They note that the number of CVs per unit mass in Omega Cen is at least 2 - 3 times lower than in the field, suggesting that primordial binaries that would otherwise lead to CVs are being destroyed in the cluster environment. The authors obtained 2 exposures of Omega Cen using the imaging array of the Advanced CCD Imaging Spectrometer (ACIS-I) on 2000 January 24 - 25, in "very faint" (VF) mode. The total exposure time was 72.4 ks. The authors determined source counts using 95% encircled energy radii as determined from model PSFs, derived using the CIAO tool mkpsf at an intermediate energy of ~ 1.5 keV (the PSF shape being somewhat energy dependent). Counts were extracted in three bands: "soft" (0.5 - 1.5 keV), "medium" (0.5 - 4.5 keV), and "hard" (1.5 - 6.0 keV). The authors determined the background to subtract from each source by dividing the image into 1 arcminute-wide annuli centered on the aim point in chip 3 (the innermost "annulus" being a circle of radius 1.5 arcminutes). Background values adopted for sources in a given annulus were averages determined from several source-free regions within that annulus, after verifying that the background levels were azimuthally symmetric. For 12 sources ( source_numbers 11b, 12b, 13e, 22c, 32c, 41b, 41c, 84a, 84b, 84c, 93a, and 93b) that fell in the chip gaps or near the outer edge of a chip, background regions were chosen specifically to reflect these conditions. Local background determinations were also made for a small number of sources to the west of the cluster center that lie on or near a large diffuse X-ray source ~7 arcminutes west of the cluster center (see below). Following background subtraction, the authors applied aperture corrections and also corrected for reduced effective exposure times off-axis and in the chip gaps using the exposure map.

ELAIS S1 Field X-Ray Source Optical/IR Identifications Catalog
This table contains the optical identifications and a multi-band catalog of a sample of 478 X-ray sources detected in the XMM-Newton and Chandra surveys of the central 0.6 deg<sup>2</sup> of the ELAIS-S1 field. The most likely optical/infrared counterpart of each X-ray source was identified using the chance coincidence probability in the R and IRAC 3.6 micron bands.This method was complemented by the precise positions obtained through Chandra observations. The authors were able to associate a counterpart to each X-ray source in the catalogue. Approximately 94% of them are detected in the R band, while the remaining are blank fields in the optical down to R ~ 24.5, but have a near-infrared counterpart detected by IRAC within 6 arcsec of the XMM-Newton centroid. The multi-band catalog, produced using the positions of the identified optical counterparts, contains photometry in ten photometric bands, from B to the MIPS 24 micron band. The spectroscopic follow-up allowed us to determine the redshift and classification for 237 sources (~ 50% of the sample) brighter than R = 24. The spectroscopic redshifts were complemented by reliable photometric redshifts for 68 sources. The authors classified 47% of the sources with spectroscopic redshift as broad-line active galactic nuclei (BL AGNs) with z = 0.1-3.5, while sources without broad-lines (NOT BL AGNs) are about 46% of the spectroscopic sample and are found up to z = 2.6. The remaining fraction is represented by extended X-ray sources and stars. The authors spectroscopically identified 11 type 2 QSOs among the sources with F(2-10 keV)/F(R) > 8, with redshift between 0.9 and 2.6, high 2-10 keV luminosity (log L(2-10 keV) >= 43.8 erg/s) and hard X-ray colors suggesting large absorbing columns at the rest frame (log N<sub>H</sub> up to 23.6 cm<sup>-2</sup>). BL AGNs show on average blue optical-to-near-infrared colors, softer X-ray colors and X-ray-to-optical colors typical of optically selected AGNs. Conversely, narrow-line sources show redder optical colors, harder X-ray flux ratio and span a wider range of X-ray-to-optical colors. On average the Spectral Energy Distributions (SEDs) of high-luminosity BL AGNs resemble the power-law typical of unobscured AGNs. The SEDs of NOT BLAGNs are dominated by the galaxy emission in the optical/near-infrared, and show a rise in the mid-infrared which suggests the presence of an obscured active nucleus. The authors have used the infrared-to-optical colors and near-infrared SEDs to infer the properties of the AGN host galaxies. Identifications and photometric parameters for 478 sources detected by XMM-Newton in the ELAIS-S1 field are given. For each source, the X-ray positions and fluxes, optical position and photometry, Spitzer IRAC and MIPS 24 micron positions and fluxes, spectroscopic redshift where available, photometric redshift and SED shape classification are given. This table was created by the HEASARC in December 2008 based on the <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/J/A+A/488/417">CDS Catalog J/A+A/488/417</a> file catalog.dat.

Extremely Red Objects XMM-Newton Survey Catalog
This table contains the results of a deep (about 80 ks) XMM-Newton survey of the largest sample of near-infrared-selected Extremely Red Objects (R-K > 5) available to date to K<sub>s</sub> < ~19.2. At the relatively bright X-ray fluxes ((F(2-10 keV) >~ 4 x 10<sup>-15</sup> erg cm<sup>-2</sup> s<sup>-1</sup>) and near-infrared magnitude probed by the present observations, the fraction of AGN (i.e. X-ray detected) among the ERO population is small (~3.5%); conversely, the fraction of EROs among hard X-ray selected sources is much higher (~20%). The X-ray properties of the 9 EROs detected in this XMM-Newton observation indicate absorption in excess of 10<sup>22</sup> cm<sup>-2</sup> in a large fraction of them. The X-ray, optical and near-infrared properties of those X-ray selected EROs with a spectroscopic or photometric redshift nicely match those expected for type 2 quasars, the high-luminosity, high-redshift obscured AGNs predicted in baseline XRB synthesis models. A close correlation is detected between X-ray and K-band fluxes. This table contains the X-ray and optical information for the sources detected in the sum of 3 separate XMM-Newton observations of a field centered on 14 49 25, +09 00 13 (J2000.0 RA and Dec) known as the "Daddi" field (Daddi et al. 2000, A&A, 361, 535) in which 257 EROs are known to be present. The data from all 3 EPIC instruments (PN, MOS1 and MOS2) obtained in the 3 observations was combined, yielding a total exposure time for the PN of ~82 ks, and for the MOS instruments of ~78 ks. The X-ray hardness ratio (HR) and the optical to near-infrared color (R and K magnitudes) are reported for all the detected X-ray sources and their counterparts, along with the reliability of the X-ray to optical or near-infrared associations as measured by the likelihood ratios, LR(R) and LR(K). This table lists data for the 111 proposed optical/infrared counterparts for the 97 detected X-ray sources, i.e., X-ray sources with more than one possible optical/IR counterpart will have multiple entries in this table, one for each counterpart, as follows: 73 X-ray sources have secure optical/near-IR counterparts (counterpart_status=1), 7 X-ray sources have 2 possible 'likely' counterparts, and 1 X-ray source has 3 such counterparts (counterpart_status=2), 6 X-ray sources have only low-likelihood counterparts all of which lie outside the 3" matching radii (counterpart_status=3), and the remaining 9 X-ray sources lack optical and infrared photometry (counterpart_status=4). This table was created by the HEASARC in February 2007 based on the <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/J/A+A/432/69">CDS Catalog J/A+A/432/69</a> files table1.dat and table2.dat.

Cosmic Dust Catalog
Since May 1981, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has used aircraft to collect cosmic dust (CD) particles from Earth's stratosphere. Specially designed dust collectors are prepared for flight and processed after flight in an ultraclean (Class-100) laboratory constructed for this purpose at the Lyndon B. Johnson Space Center (JSC) in Houston, Texas. Particles are individually retrieved from the collectors, examined and cataloged, and then made available to the scientific community for research. Cosmic dust thereby joins lunar samples and meteorites as an additional source of extraterrestrial materials for scientific study.
Ultraviolet Imaging Telescope Master Catalog
The Ultraviolet Imaging Telescope (UIT) was one of three ultraviolet telescopes on the ASTRO-1 mission flown on the Space Shuttle Columbia during the period of 2 - 10 December 1990. The same three instruments were later flown on the Space Shuttle Endeavour during 3 - 17 March 1995, as part of the ASTRO-2 mission. Exposures were obtained on 70-mm photographic film in the 1200-3300 Angstrom range using broadband filters and later digitized using a Perkin-Elmer microdensitometer. The image resolution was 3 arcseconds over a 40 arcminute field of view and images of targets as faint as 21st (ultraviolet) magnitude were recorded. Overall, the UIT-1 mission obtained 821 exposures of 66 targets (361 near-UV and 460 far-UV), and UIT-2 obtained 758 images of 193 targets (all far-UV), for a total of 1579 exposures. This table contains only 1481 rows, 777 UIT-1 exposures (347 near-UV and 430 far-UV) and 704 UIT-2 exposures (all far-UV), implying that 98 exposures are 'missing' from this table. This table was created by the HEASARC in April 2012 based on <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/VI/104">CDS Catalog VI/104</a> file uitlist.dat.

Spitzer Deep Wide-Field Survey 8 micron Epoch 1 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.
DeepDrill CDFS 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).
NGC 6530 XMM-Newton X-Ray Point Source Catalog
This table contains the results of a 20 ks XMM-Newton observation of the Lagoon Nebula (M 8). The EPIC images of this region reveal a cluster of point sources, most of which have optical counterparts inside the very young open cluster NGC 6530. The bulk of these X-ray sources are probably associated with low and intermediate mass pre-main sequence stars. One of the sources experienced a flare-like increase of its X-ray flux making it the second brightest source in M 8 after the O4 star 9 Sgr. The X-ray spectra of most of the brightest sources can be fitted with thermal plasma models with temperatures of kT ~ a few keV. Only a few of the X-ray selected PMS candidates are known to display H-alpha emission and were previously classified as classical T Tauri stars. This suggests that most of the X-ray emitting PMS stars in NGC 6530 are weak-line T Tauri stars. In addition to 9 Sgr, the EPIC field of view contains also a few early-type stars. This table contains information on 117 of the 119 X-ray sources (2 sources, a point source associated with 9 Sgr and an extended source associated with the Hourglass Nebula were excluded from this table by the authors) that were detected using the SAS source detection algorithms in the soft band (0.5 - 1.2 keV) of an EPIC observation of 9 Sgr which have either a combined likelihood >= 20 and are detected in the individual images from all 3 EPIC instruments with -ln p_i >= 3.0 or (in two cases) where clearly detected in 2 of the 3 instruments but fell outside of the FOV of the third. The faintest sources in this category have about 10-3 cts s<sup>-1</sup> over the 0.5 - 1.2 keV band of the MOS instruments. Assuming a 1 keV thermal spectrum with a neutral hydrogen column density of 0.17 x 10<sup>22</sup> cm<sup>-2</sup>, the faintest sources correspond to an observed flux of about 8.9 x 10<sup>-15</sup> erg cm<sup>-2</sup> s<sup>-1</sup> and an unabsorbed flux of 13.1 x 10<sup>-15</sup> erg cm<sup>-2</sup> s<sup>-1</sup> in the 0.5 - 5.0 keV energy range. Note that the corresponding observed flux in the 0.5 - 1.2 keV soft band would be 5.2 x 10<sup>-15</sup> erg cm<sup>-2</sup> s<sup>-1</sup>. 72 X-ray sources have a single optical counterpart from the Sung et al (2000, <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/J/AJ/120/333">CDS Cat. <J/AJ/120/333></a>) catalog or in the SIMBAD database within a radius of less than 9 arcsec. The average angular separation between the X-ray source and the optical counterpart is 4.1 +/- 2.1 arcseconds. 17 X-ray sources have two or more optical stars falling within the 9 arcsec radius. Seven of these sources have at least one known H-alpha emission star inside their error box. 28 sources do not have an optical counterpart in the catalogue of Sung et al. The authors have cross-correlated these sources with the Guide Star Catalog and, in most cases, they find one or several GSC objects inside the 9 arcsec radius. These optical counterparts are usually very faint (V or R >=17) except for sources 91, 92 and 94 that have counterparts with R magnitudes 15.0, 14.6 and 13.3 respectively (note that these sources fall outside the area investigated by Sung et al.). Sources 93, 96, 98, 99, 100, 101, 102 and 112 have no GSC counterpart. Most of the objects in Table 3 are therefore X-ray sources with high X-ray to visual luminosity ratios. Given the galactic coordinates of NGC 6530 (l_II = 6.14, b_II = -1.38), the total galactic column density along this line of sight must be extremely large and the number of extragalactic sources in the soft detection energy band should be extremely low.

NGC2000.0: Complete New General Catalog and Index Catalog
NGC 2000.0 is a modern compilation of the New General Catalogue of Nebulae and Clusters of Stars (NGC), the Index Catalogue (IC), and the Second Index Catalogue compiled by J. L. E. Dreyer (1888, 1895, 1908). The new compilation of these classical catalogs is intended to meet the needs of present-day observers by reporting positions at equinox 2000.0 and by incorporating the corrections reported by Dreyer himself and by a host of other astronomers who have worked with the data and compiled lists of errata. The object types given are those known to modern astronomy.
