ROSAT/XMM-Newton 13-hour Field Chandra X-Ray Source Catalog
This table contains some of the results from a Chandra ACIS-I survey of a high-latitude region at RA, Dec = 13 hours, +38 degrees which was earlier observed with ROSAT and which had recently been observed by XMM-Newton for 200 ks. XMM-Newton was expected to provide good-quality X-ray spectra for over 200 sources with fluxes around the knee of the log N /log S distribution, which are responsible for the bulk of the X-ray background. The main aim of the Chandra observations was to provide arcsecond, or better, positions, and hence reliable identifications, for the XMM-Newton sources. The ACIS-I observations were arranged in a mosaic of four 30-ks pointings, covering almost all of the 15-arcminute radius XMM-Newton/ROSAT field. 214 Chandra sources were detected above a Cash likelihood statistic of 25, which approximates to a 5-sigma significance, to a limiting flux of ~ 1.3 x 10<sup>-15</sup>erg/cm<sup>2</sup>/s (0.5 - 7 keV). Optical counterparts were derived from a Subaru SuprimeCam image reaching to R ~ 27. The very large majority of the Chandra sources have an optical counterpart, with the distribution peaking at 23 < R < 24, although 14 have no counterpart to R = 27. The fraction of X-ray sources with no identification brighter than R = 27 is similar to that found in deeper Chandra surveys. The majority of the identifications are with galaxies. As found in other Chandra surveys, there is a very wide range of optical magnitudes for a given X-ray flux, implying a range of emission mechanisms, and many sources have high L<sub>X</sub>/L<sub>opt</sub> ratios, implying absorption at moderate redshift. Comparison with the earlier ROSAT survey shows that the accuracy of the ROSAT positions agrees very well with the predictions from simulations by McHardy et al. and that the large majority of the identifications were correct. This table was created by the HEASARC in July 2013 based on <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/J/MNRAS/342/802">CDS Catalog J/MNRAS/342/802</a> files table2.dat and table5.dat.

Allen Telescope Array Pi GHz Sky Survey (PiGSS) Boo Field Source Catalog
The Pi GHz Sky Survey (PiGSS) is a key project of the Allen Telescope Array (ATA). PiGSS is a 3.1 GHz survey of radio continuum emission in the extragalactic sky with an emphasis on synoptic observations that measure the static and time-variable properties of the sky. During the 2.5 year campaign, PiGSS will twice observe ~250,000 radio sources in the 10,000 deg<sup>2</sup> region of the sky with b > 30 degrees to an rms sensitivity of ~1 mJy. Additionally, sub-regions of the sky will be observed multiple times to characterize variability on timescales of days to years. Presented here are the results from observations of a 10 deg<sup>2</sup> region in the Bootes constellation overlapping the NOAO Deep Wide Field Survey field. The PiGSS image was constructed from 75 daily observations distributed over a 4 month period and has an rms flux density between 200 and 250 µJy. This represents a deeper image by a factor of 4-8 than the authors will achieve over the entire 10,000 deg<sup>2</sup>. In this table, they provide flux densities, source sizes, and spectral indices for the 425 sources detected in the image. They identify ~100 new flat-spectrum radio sources, and project that, when completed, PiGSS will identify 104 flat-spectrum sources. In their paper the authors identify one source that is a possible transient radio source. This survey provides new limits on faint radio transients and variables with characteristic durations of months. This table was created by the HEASARC in March 2011 based on electronic versions of Tables 2 and 4 from the reference paper which were obtained from the ApJ web site. The HEASARC changed the sign of the values of the last parameter in Table 4 (herein called spectral_index_3_error) from negative to positive. In March 2013, after receiving a clarification from Steve Croft, the HEASARC corrected the names of the 4 parameters describing the source sizes (to reflect the fact that they were diameters nor radii) to major_axis, minor_axis, fit_major_axis and fit_minor_axis.

PEP PACS 70 micron GOODS-S Catalog
The PACS Evolutionary Probe (PEP, Lutz et al. 2011) is a Herschel guaranteed time deep extragalactic survey (KPGT_dlutz_1) targeting six among the most popular "blank fields", ten lensing clusters of galaxies, and two z ~1 clusters at wavelengths of 100, and 160 microns. PEP includes SPIRE observations of the two z ~1 clusters at wavelengths of 250, 350, and 500 microns. SPIRE coverage of all other fields is available from the HerMES survey (Oliver et al. 2010). In addition, deep SPIRE GOODS-N data are provided by the GOODS-Herschel program (Elbaz et al. 2011).PEP used the Starfinder IDL code (Diolaiti et al. 2000a,b) to blindly extract the PACS catalogs, by means of PSF-fitting. PEP adopted the "direct" noise maps and extracted PSFs directly from the observed maps (see documentation). The released catalogs include all sources above a S/N threshold of 3 sigma, derived directly from the measured fluxes and flux uncertainties. Users should keep in mind that the error estimate does not take into account confusion noise. PEP recommends to use any flux below 0.6 mJy in the green band and below 2.0 mJy in the red band with care.The GOODS-S 70 micron catalog omits the Field and Flag_PGH_* columns, and coverage has units of s/pix.
HERITAGE LMC SPIRE 500 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.
Spitzer Extragalactic First Look Survey WIYN/Hydra Line Strength and Equivalent Width Catalog
The Extragalactic First Look Survey is composed of 4 square degrees of imaging with MIPS and IRAC centered at J1718+5930, with extensive ancillary data from ground-based optical and radio telescopes. As one of the first observations made with Spitzer after the completion of Science Verification at the end of 2003 November, the aim of this 67 hr survey was to characterize the extragalactic source populations observed with Spitzer down to sub-millijansky levels in the mid-infrared. This catalog presents line strength and equivalent width measurements from the WIYN/Hydra spectra described in Marleau et al. (2007).
XBOOTES: NDWFS Bootes Field X-Ray Point Source Catalog
The XBootes table contains the X-Ray point source catalog from a Chandra survey of the 9 square degrees Bootes field of the NOAO Deep Wide-Field Survey (NDWFS). This XBootes survey consists of 126 separate contiguous ACIS-I observations each of approximately 5000 s in duration. These unique Chandra observations allowed the authors to search for large-scale structure and to calculate X-ray source statistics over a wide, contiguous field of view with arcsecond angular resolution and uniform coverage. Optical spectroscopic follow-up observations and the rich NDWFS data set will allow the authors to identify and classify these X-ray-selected sources. Using wavelet decomposition, they have detected 4642 point sources with n >= 2 counts. In order to keep their detections ~ 99% reliable, they have limited their list to sources with n >= 4 counts. For a 5000 s observation and assuming a canonical unabsorbed active galactic nucleus (AGN) type X-ray spectrum, a 4 count on-axis source corresponds to a flux of 4.7 x 10<sup>-15</sup> ergs cm<sup>-2</sup> s<sup>-1</sup> in the soft (0.5-2 keV) band, 1.5 x 10<sup>-14</sup> ergs cm<sup>-2</sup> s<sup>-1</sup> in the hard (2-7 keV) band, and 7.8 x 10<sup>-15</sup> ergs cm<sup>-2</sup> s<sup>-1</sup> in the full (0.5-7 keV) band. The full 0.5-7 keV band n >= 4 count list contained in this HEASARC table has 3293 point sources. In addition to the point sources, 43 extended sources (not included in this HEASARC table) have been detected, consistent with the depth of these observations and the number counts of clusters. Presented here in the X-ray point source catalog for the XBootes survey are the source positions, X-ray fluxes, hardness ratios, and their uncertainties, for the 3293 sources with >= 4 counts in the full band. This table was created by the HEASARC in February 2006 based on the machine-readable version of Table 3 in the above paper which was obtained from the electronic ApJ website.

XMM-Newton Optical Monitor Chandra Deep Field-South UV Catalog
The XMM-Newton X-ray observatory has performed repeated observations of the Chandra Deep Field-South (CDFS) in 33 epochs (2001 - 2010) through the XMM-CDFS Deep Survey (Comastri et al. 2011, A&A, 526, L9). During the X-ray observations, the XMM-Newton Optical Monitor (XMM-OM) targeted the central 17 x 17 arcmin<sup>2</sup> region of the X-ray field of view, providing simultaneous optical/UV coverage of the CDFS. The resulting set of data can be taken into account to build an XMM-OM catalog of the CDFS, filling the UV spectral coverage between the optical surveys and GALEX observations. This table contains the UV catalog of the XMM-CDFS Deep Survey. Its main purpose is to provide complementary UV average photometric measurements of known optical/UV sources in the CDFS, taking advantage of the unique characteristics of the survey. The data reduction is intended also to improve the standard source detection on individual observations, by cataloguing faint sources through the stacking of their exposure images. The authors reprocessed the XMM-OM data of the survey and stacked the exposures from consecutive observations using the standard SAS tools to process the data obtained during single observations. Average measurements of detections with SAS good quality flags from individual observations and from stacked images have been joined to compile the catalogue. Sources have been validated through the cross-identification within the ESO Imaging Survey (EIS: Arnouts et al. 2001, A&A, 379, 740) and COMBO-17 (Wolf et al. 2004, A&A, 421, 913; 2008, A&A, 492, 933) surveys. Photometric data of 1129 CDFS sources are provided in the main catalog, and optical/UV/X-ray photometric and spectroscopic information from other surveys are also included. The stacking extends the detection limits by ~1 mag in the three UV bands, contributing 30% of the catalogued UV sources. The comparison with the available measurements in similar spectral bands confirms the validity of the XMM-OM calibration. The combined COMBO-17/X-ray classification of the "intermediate" sources (e.g. optically diluted and/or X-ray absorbed AGN) is also discussed in the reference paper. This table was created by the HEASARC in June 2015 based on the union of <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/J/ApJS/217/4/">CDS Catalog J/ApJS/217/4/</a> files omcdfst7.dat (the 1,129 sources in the main catalog) and omcdfst8.dat (the 44 sources in the supplementary catalog).

GPIPS DR4 Unique Star Catalog
The Galactic Plane Infrared Polarization Survey (GPIPS) covers 76 sq. deg. of the first Galactic quadrant midplane, 18<l<56 deg and -1<b<+1 deg, in H-band (1.6 micron) linear polarimetry to reveal the plane-of-the-sky orientation of the magnetic field in diffuse and denser atomic and molecular clouds. The Survey consists of 3234 overlapping 10x10 arcmin fields observed using the Mimir instrument on the 1.8 m Perkins telescope.The unique star data file (Clemens et al. 2020) collects all GPIPS photometry and polarimetry and all matching stellar data appropriate to each GPIPS star. The unique star file contains entries for 13,861,329 GPIPS stars.
Groth-Westphal Strip Chandra X-Ray Point Source Catalog
This table contains the optical and X-ray spectral properties of the sources detected in a 200-ks Chandra observation of part of the Groth-Westphal Strip (GWS) region, using the ACIS-I instrument. The authors present a relatively simple method for the detection of X-ray point sources and the calculation of limiting sensitivities, which they argue is at least as sensitive and more self-consistent than previous methods presented in the literature. A total of 158 distinct X-ray sources are included in this point-source catalogue in the ACIS-I area with a threshold Poisson detection probability of 4 x 10<sup>-6</sup>. The number counts show a relative dearth of X-ray sources in this region. A wealth of optical photometric and spectroscopic data are available in this field providing optical identifications and redshift determinations for the X-ray population. The optical photometry and spectroscopy used here are primarily from the Deep Extragalactic Evolutionary Probe 2 (DEEP2) survey with additional redshifts obtained from the literature. These are complemented with the deeper (r ~ 26 mag) multiwaveband data (ugriz) from the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope Legacy Survey to estimate photometric redshifts and to optically identify sources fainter than the DEEP2 magnitude limit (R<sub>AB</sub> ~ 24.5 mag). The authors focus their study on the 2 - 10 keV selected sample comprising 97 sources to the flux limit ~8 x 10<sup>-16</sup> erg/s/cm<sup>2</sup>, this being the most complete in terms of optical identification rate (86 per cent) and redshift determination fraction (63 per cent; both spectroscopic and photometric). Chandra observed the GWS, which is part of the Extended Groth Strip (EGS) region, on three separate occasions between 2002 August 11 and 22, using ACIS-I as the prime instrument. The S2 and S3 chips of the ACIS-S array were also operating during the observation, but as these are far off-axis their data are not considered further. The sequence number identifying the observations was 900144 and the three observation ID numbers (3305 on 2002-08-11, 4357 on 2002-08-12, and 4365 on 2002-08-21). This table was created by the HEASARC in July 2007 based on the merger of <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/J/MNRAS/356/568">CDS Catalog J/MNRAS/356/568</a> file table3.dat and <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/J/MNRAS/371/221">CDS Catalog J/MNRAS/371/221</a> file table2.dat.

Second ROSAT All-Sky Survey Point Source Catalog (2RXS)
This database table contains the Second ROSAT All-Sky Survey Point Source Catalog (2RXS). This is the second publicly released ROSAT catalog of point-like sources obtained from the ROSAT All-Sky Survey (RASS) observations performed with the Position-Sensitive Proportional Counter (PSPC) between June 1990 and August 1991. It is an extended, revised, and combined version of the RASS <a href="/W3Browse/rosat/rassbsc.html">Bright</a> and <a href="/W3Browse/rosat/rassfsc.html">Faint Source Catalog</a>s. Utilizing the latest RASS processing, this catalog includes more than 135,000 X-ray detections in the 0.1-2.4 keV energy band down to a likelihood threshold of 6.5. Additional information can be found at <a href="http://www.mpe.mpg.de/ROSAT/2RXS/">http://www.mpe.mpg.de/ROSAT/2RXS/</a>.

Sloan Digital Sky Survey Stripe 82 XMM-Newton Source Match Catalog
This table contains some of the data from the latest release of the Stripe 82 X-ray (82X) survey point-source catalog, which currently covers 31.3 deg<sup>2</sup> of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) Stripe 82 Legacy field. In total, 6,181 unique X-ray sources are significantly detected with XMM-Newton (> 5 sigma) and Chandra (> 4.5 sigma). This 31 deg<sup>2</sup> catalog release includes data from XMM-Newton cycle AO 13, which approximately doubled the Stripe 82X survey area. The flux limits of the Stripe 82X survey are 8.7 x 10<sup>-16</sup> erg s<sup>-1</sup> cm<sup>-2</sup>, 4.7 x 10<sup>-15</sup> erg s<sup>-1</sup> cm<sup>-2</sup>, and 2.1 x 10<sup>-15</sup> erg s<sup>-1</sup> cm^=2^ in the soft (0.5 - 2.0 keV), hard (2 - 10 keV), and full (0.5 - 10 keV) bands, respectively, with approximate half-area survey flux limits of 5.4 x 10<sup>-15</sup> erg s<sup>-1</sup> cm<sup>-2</sup>, 2.9 x 10<sup>-14</sup> erg s<sup>-1</sup> cm<sup>-2</sup>, and 1.7 x 10<sup>-14</sup> erg s<sup>-1</sup> cm<sup>-2</sup>, respectively. The authors matched the X-ray source lists to available multi-wavelength catalogs, including updated matches to the previous release of the Stripe 82X survey; 88% of the sample is matched to a multi-wavelength counterpart. Due to the wide area of Stripe 82X and rich ancillary multi-wavelength data, including coadded SDSS photometry, mid-infrared WISE coverage, near-infrared coverage from UKIDSS and VISTA Hemisphere Survey (VHS), ultraviolet coverage from GALEX, radio coverage from FIRST, and far-infrared coverage from Herschel, as well as existing ~30% optical spectroscopic completeness, this study is beginning to uncover rare objects, such as obscured high-luminosity active galactic nuclei at high redshift. The Stripe 82X point source catalog is a valuable data set for constraining how this population grows and evolves, as well as for studying how they interact with the galaxies in which they live. The authors derive the XMM-Newton number counts distribution and compare it with their previously reported Chandra log N - log S relations and other X-ray surveys. Throughout this study, the authors adopt a cosmology of H<sub>0</sub> = 70 km s<sup>-1</sup> Mpc<sup>-1</sup>, Omega<sub>M</sub> = 0.27, and Lambda = 0.73. The XMM-Newton and Chandra X-ray sources were matched with sources in the SDSS, WISE, UKIDSS, VHS, GALEX, FIRST and Herschel databases using the maximum likelihood estimator (MLE) method, as discussed in detail in Section 4 of the reference paper. This table contains the list of 5,220 sources detected in the SDSS Stripe 82 in archival, AO10 and AO13 XMM-Newton observations. A related table SDSSS82CXO contains the list of 1,146 Chandra sources detected in the SDSS Stripe 82. Compared to the initial version of this catalog based on the 2013 paper, in the current version of the catalog the MLE matching between the XMM-Newton archival and AO10 source lists and ancillary catalogs was updated to include a 1 arcsecond systematic error added in quadrature to the emldetect reported positional error. This table was initially created by the HEASARC in April 2014 based on the machine-readable version of the table ('Properties of SDSS Quasars Detected by XMM-Newton') described in Appendix B2 of the reference paper (LaMassa et al. 2013, MNRAS, 436, 3581) which was obtained from the CDS (catalog J/MNRAS/436/3581/, file xmms82.dat). The present version was created by the HEASARC in January 2017 based on <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/J/ApJ/817/172">CDS catalog J/ApJ/817/172</a>, files xmmao10.dat and xmmao13.dat.

Spitzer Extragalactic First Look Survey MIPS 24 micron Extended Source Catalog
The Extragalactic First Look Survey is composed of 4 square degrees of imaging with MIPS and IRAC centered at J1718+5930, with extensive ancillary data from ground-based optical and radio telescopes. As one of the first observations made with Spitzer after the completion of Science Verification at the end of 2003 November, the aim of this 67 hr survey was to characterize the extragalactic source populations observed with Spitzer down to sub-millijansky levels in the mid-infrared.
Spitzer Deep Wide-Field Survey 3.6 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 High Reliability CLOUDS 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 High Reliability CLOUDS Catalog provides the most reliable list of sources in the C2D CLOUDS fields (ChamaeleonII (CHA_II), Lupus (LUP), Ophiuchus (OPH), Perseus (PER) and Serpens (SER)). It is derived from the Full Catalog but requires good signal-to-noise detection in some bands.
z0MGS_Dust Catalog
The z0MGS_Dust project consists of Herschel images from PACS and SPIRE available for 1578 galaxies, dust emission parameters for 819 galaxies, and integrated photometry and dust parameters for 877 galaxies. The final catalog used in this study uses WISE and Herschel data to derive interstellar dust parameters and scaling relations with other galactic information such as stellar mass, star formation rate, and related values.
Herschel GOODS-S Catalog
GOODS-Herschel (Elbaz et al, 2011) is in ESA open time key project consisting of the deepest Herschel observations of the two Great Observatories Origins Deep Survey (GOODS) fields in the Northern and Southern hemispheres.The GOODS catalogs include photometry from Spitzer IRAC & MIPS and Herschel PACS & SPIRE observations.

Updated Planck Catalog of Sunyaev-Zeldovich Sources Release 1
The all-sky Planck catalog of 1,227 clusters and cluster candidates (PSZ1) derived from Sunyaev-Zeldovich (SZ) effect detections using the first 15.5 months of Planck satellite observations included 683 so-called previously known clusters. PSZ1 was first published in March 2013 (Planck Collaboration 2013 (2013yCat.8091....0P, and 2014A&A...571A..29P). This HEASARC table contains an updated version of the PSZ1 catalog, version 2.1 (10-02-2015) according to the CDS documentation, reporting the further confirmation of 86 Planck-discovered clusters. In total, the PSZ1 now contains 947 confirmed clusters, of which 214 were confirmed as newly discovered clusters through follow-up observations undertaken by the Planck Collaboration. The updated PSZ1 contains redshifts for 913 systems, of which 736 (~80.6%) are spectroscopic, and associated mass estimates derived from the Y<sub>z</sub> mass proxy. A new SZ quality flag is also provided for the remaining 280 candidates. This flag was derived from a novel artificial neural-network classification of the SZ signal. Based on this assessment, the purity of the updated PSZ1 catalogue is estimated to be 94%. This table was originally ingested by the HEASARC in May 2013. An updated version (2.1) was ingested by the HEASARC in October 2015 based on <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/J/A+A/581/A14">CDS Catalog J/A+A/581/A14</a> files psz1v2_1.dat and notes.dat.

Star-Forming Galaxies High-Mass X-Ray Binaries Catalog
Based on a homogeneous set of X-ray, infrared and ultraviolet observations from Chandra, Spitzer, GALEX and 2MASS archives, the authors studied populations of high-mass X-ray binaries (HMXBs) in a sample of 29 nearby star-forming galaxies and their relation with the star formation rate (SFR). In agreement with previous results, the authors find that HMXBs are a good tracer of the recent star formation activity in the host galaxy and their collective luminosity and number scale with the SFR, in particular, L<sub>X</sub> ~ 2.6 x 10<sup>39</sup> x SFR. However, the scaling relations still bear a rather large dispersion of rms ~ 0.4 dex, which the authors believe is of a physical origin. This table contains the catalog of 1055 compact X-ray sources detected within the D25 ellipse for galaxies of this sample which the authors used to construct the average X-ray luminosity function (XLF) of HMXBs with substantially improved statistical accuracy and better control of systematic effects than achieved in previous studies. The XLF follows a power law with slope of 1.6 in the log(L<sub>X</sub>) ~ 35 - 40 luminosity range with a moderately significant evidence for a break or cut-off at L<sub>X</sub> ~ 10<sup>40</sup> erg/s. As before, the authors did not find any features at the Eddington limit for a neutron star or a stellar mass black hole. In their paper, the authors discuss the implications of their results for the theory of binary evolution. In particular, they estimate the fraction of compact objects that once during their lifetime experienced an X-ray active phase powered by accretion from a high mass companion and obtain a rather large number, f<sub>X</sub> ~ 0.2 x (0.1 Myr/tau<sub>x</sub>), where tau<sub>x</sub> is the life time of the X-ray active phase. This is about 4 orders of magnitude more frequent than in low-mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs). The authors also derive constrains on the mass distribution of the secondary star in HMXBs. Note that, in their paper, the authors estimate that ~ 300 of the 1055 sources are likely to be background AGNs (cosmic X-ray background or CXB sources) and that the majority (<~ 700) of the remaining ~ 750 sources are young HMXB systems associated with star formation in their host galaxies. This table was created by the HEASARC in March 2012 based on <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/J/MNRAS/419/2095">CDS Catalog J/MNRAS/419/2095</a> file hmxb.dat.

SHELA Epoch 1 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).
