Description
This catalog lists the high and low latitude X-ray sources observed with the Sky Survey Instrument on board the ARIEL 5 satellite (UK 5) as published by Warwick et al. (1981MNRAS.197..865W) and McHardy et al. (1981MNRAS.197..893M). ARIEL 5 scanned the sky for 5.5yrs in the energy bands 2-18 keV with a time resolution of one orbit (100min approximately). The fields in the catalog list source name and up to three alternative names; the error box center and corners in decimal degrees; average, minimum, and maximum flux and their error; a variability code; identification; and comments.
