WISE (Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer)

Description:
NASA's Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE; Wright et al. 2010) mapped the sky at 3.4, 4.6, 12, and 22 μm (W1, W2, W3, W4) in 2010 with an angular resolution of 6.1", 6.4", 6.5", & 12.0" in the four bands. WISE achieved 5Ï? point source sensitivities better than 0.08, 0.11, 1 and 6 mJy in unconfused regions on the ecliptic in the four bands. Sensitivity improves toward the ecliptic poles due to denser coverage and lower zodiacal background.
132. XMM-Newton Serendipitous Source Catalogue (2XMM)

Title:
XMM-Newton Serendipitous Source Catalogue (2XMM)
Short Name:
2XMM

Description:
XMM is the second comprehensive catalogue of serendipitous X-ray sources from the European Space Agency's (ESA) XMM-Newton observatory. The 2XMM catalogue is the largest X-ray source catalogue ever produced, containing almost twice as many discrete sources as either the ROSAT survey or pointed catalogues. 2XMM complements deeper Chandra and XMM-Newton small area surveys, probing a much larger sky area.

Description:
The XMM-OM Serendipitous Ultra-violet Source Survey (SUSS) is a catalog of UV sources detected serendipitously by the Optical Monitor (OM) on-board the European Space Agency's (ESA's) XMM-Newton observatory. It has been created at the University College London's (UCL's) Mullard Space Science Laboratory (MSSL) on behalf of ESA and is a partner resource to the 2XMM serendipitous X-ray source catalogue. The catalog contains source detections drawn from 2,417 XMM-OM observations in up to three broad band UV filters made between 2000 February 24 and 2007 March 29. All datasets included were publicly available by 2007 May 01 but note that, due to screening criteria, not all public observations are included in this catalog. Taking account of substantial overlaps between observations, the net sky area covered independently is 29 - 54 square degreees, depending on UV filter. The primary content of the catalog is filter-dependent source positions and magnitudes, and these are accompanied by profile diagnostics and variability statistics. The XMM-OM SUSS catalog contains 753,578 UV source detections above a signal-to-noise threshold limit of 3-sigma which relate to 624,049 unique objects. A significant fraction of sources (12% - UVW2, 11% - UVM2, 11.% - UVW1) are visited more than once during XMM operation, and a large fraction of sources (38% - UVW2, 23% - UVM2, 22% - UVW1) are observed more than once per filter during an individual visit. UVW2, UVM2 and UVW1 refer to the filter bandpasses defined in the Source Properties: Filter Set section of the MSSL documentation for this catalog: <a href="http://www.mssl.ucl.ac.uk/~mds/XMM-OM-SUSS/SourcePropertiesFilters.shtml">http://www.mssl.ucl.ac.uk/~mds/XMM-OM-SUSS/SourcePropertiesFilters.shtml</a>. Consequently, the scope for science based on temporal source variability on timescales of hours to years is broad. The positional accuracy of the catalog detections is typically 1.0 arcsec (1-sigma confidence radius) with a median positional error of 0.67 arcsec. The median AB magnitude of the catalog detections in the three UV bands is 19.56 (UVW2), 20.23 (UVM2) and 20.69 (UVW1). 20% of sources have AB magnitudes fainter than 20.28 (UVW2), 20.97 (UVM2) and 21.54 (UVW1). As part of quality evaluation for the catalog, each field has been tested for astrometric accuracy and visually screened for cosmetic problems, compromising aspect anomalies, stray light, large extended sources and telemetry dropouts. Observations affected by these issues (11.2%) have been removed from the catalog sample. Furthermore, 2% of all observations were selected at random where each source in this sample was tested for falsehood, spuriousness and accuracy of quality flagging. The results of this detailed screening are included in the full documentation. The processing used to generate the catalog is based on the SAS8.0 pipeline developed for the pipeline reduction of all XMM observations. This version includes a number of significant improvements over the previous data processing system (as used by the SSC in routine processing of XMM-Newton data on behalf of ESA). These improvements include a more robust detection scheme for sources close to the limit of sky background, refined quality flagging and a higher success rate (90%) for refined aspect corrections.
