- Description:
- The eROSITA telescope array aboard the Spektrum Roentgen Gamma (SRG) satellite began surveying the sky in December 2019, with the aim of producing all-sky X-ray source lists and sky maps of an unprecedented depth. The authors present catalogs of both point-like and extended sources using the data acquired in the first six months of survey operations (eRASS1; completed June 2020) over the half sky whose proprietary data rights lie with the German eROSITA Consortium. This catalog contains all X-ray sources detected in the 2.3-5 keV band with detection likelihood > 12. The 5466 sources detected in the less sensitive but harder 2.3-5 keV band is the result of the first true imaging survey of the entire sky above 2 keV. The eRASS1 main catalog, <a href="/W3Browse/erosita/erass1main.html">eRASS1MAIN</a>, contains nearly 930000 entries detected in the most sensitive 0.2-2.3 keV energy range and the sources (only the strongly associated ones) from the main catalog have been linked to eRASS1MAIN in this catalog. The reference paper presents methods to identify and flag potential spurious sources in the catalogs, which were applied for this work, and the authors tested and validated the astrometric accuracy via cross-comparison with other X-ray and multi-wavelength catalogs. The catalogs form part of the first data release (DR1) of the SRG/eROSITA all-sky survey. Beyond the X-ray catalogs, DR1 contains all detected and calibrated event files, source products (light curves and spectra), and all-sky maps. The data files are linked to the table and also accessible from the <a href="/docs/srg/erosita/">HEASARC eROSITA</a> and <a href="https://erosita.mpe.mpg.de/dr1/">eROSITA-DE ERASS1</a> websites. The catalog uses the following designation for indicating the bands for the different measurement: <pre> Band Energy range (keV) 0 0.2 - 5.0 1 0.2 - 0.6 2 0.6 - 2.3 3 2.3 - 5.0 </pre> This database table was ingested by the HEASARC in June 2024 and is based upon the <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/J/A+A/682/A34">CDS Catalog J/A+A/682/A34</a> file erass1-h.dat. In some cases, the HEASARC has altered the original field names, as per HEASARC conventions, and provides the original field names in square brackets. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .

- Description:
- The eROSITA telescope array aboard the Spektrum Roentgen Gamma (SRG) satellite began surveying the sky in December 2019, with the aim of producing all-sky X-ray source lists and sky maps of an unprecedented depth. The authors present catalogs of both point-like and extended sources using the data acquired in the first six months of survey operations (eRASS1; completed June 2020) over the half sky whose proprietary data rights lie with the German eROSITA Consortium. With nearly 930000 entries detected in the most sensitive 0.2-2.3keV energy range, the eRASS1 main catalog increases the number of known X-ray sources in the published literature by more than 60%, and provides a comprehensive inventory of all classes of X-ray celestial objects, covering a wide range of physical processes. A smaller catalog, <a href="/W3Browse/erosita/erass1hard.html">eRASS1HARD</a>, contains all X-ray sources detected in the 2.3-5 keV band with detection likelihood DET_LIKE > 12. The 5466 sources detected in the less sensitive but harder 2.3-5keV band is the result of the first true imaging survey of the entire sky above 2keV. The sources in the hard catalog (only the strongly associated ones) have been linked to eRASS1HARD in this catalog. The reference paper presents methods to identify and flag potential spurious sources in the catalogs, which were applied for this work, and the authors tested and validated the astrometric accuracy via cross-comparison with other X-ray and multi-wavelength catalogs. They show that the number counts of X-ray sources in eRASS1 are consistent with those derived over narrower fields by past X-ray surveys of a similar depth, and they explore the number counts variation as a function of the location in the sky. Adopting a uniform all-sky flux limit (at 50% completeness) of F<sub>(0.5-2keV)</sub> > 5 x 10<sup>-14</sup> erg/s/cm<sup>2</sup>, the authors estimate that the eROSITA all-sky survey resolves into individual sources about 20% of the cosmic X-ray background in the 1-2keV range. The catalogs form part of the first data release (DR1) of the SRG/eROSITA all-sky survey. Beyond the X-ray catalogs, DR1 contains all detected and calibrated event files, source products (light curves and spectra), and all-sky maps. The data files are linked to the table and also accessible from the <a href="/docs/srg/erosita/">HEASARC eROSITA</a> and <a href="https://erosita.mpe.mpg.de/dr1/">eROSITA-DE ERASS1</a> websites.

- Title:
- eROSITA eFEDS Hard X-Ray (2.3-5.0 keV) Source Catalog
- Short Name:
- EFEDSHARD
- Date:

- Publisher:
- NASA/GSFC HEASARC
- Description:
- The eROSITA X-ray telescope on board the Spectrum-Roentgen-Gamma (SRG) observatory combines a large field of view and collecting area in the energy range ~0.2 to ~8.0 keV with the capability to perform uniform scanning observations of large sky areas. SRG/eROSITA performed scanning observations of the ~140 square degrees eROSITA Final Equatorial Depth Survey (eFEDS) field as part of its performance verification phase. The observing time was chosen to slightly exceed the depth of equatorial fields after the completion of the eROSITA all-sky survey. The authors present a catalog of detected X-ray sources in the eFEDS field providing source positions and extent information, as well as fluxes in multiple energy bands and document a suite of tools and procedures developed for eROSITA data processing and analysis, validated and optimized by the eFEDS work. A multi-stage source detection procedure was optimized and calibrated by performing realistic simulations of the eROSITA eFEDS observations. The authors cross-matched the eROSITA eFEDS source catalog with previous XMM-ATLAS observations, confirming excellent agreement of the eROSITA and XMM-ATLAS source fluxes. This table presents the hard band sample of 246 sources detected in the energy range 2.3-5.0 keV above a detection likelihood of 10. These sources were detected in three bands (0.2-0.6, 0.6-2.3, and 2.3-5keV) with detect_likelihood >=5 and extent_likelihood = 0 (i.e. point sources). The linked <a href="/W3Browse/erosita/efedsmain.html">EFEDSMAIN</a> table presents the primary catalog of 27910 X-ray sources, including 542 with significant spatial extent, detected in the 0.2-2.3 keV energy range with detection likelihoods >=6 , corresponding to a (point source) flux limit of ~6.5 x 10<sup>-15</sup> erg/cm<sup>2</sup>/s in the 0.5-2.0 keV energy band (80% completeness). A supplementary catalog contains 4774 low-significance source candidates with detection likelihoods between 5 and 6. The dedicated data analysis software package, calibration database, and calibrated data products are described in an appendix. Additional information for the eROSITA early data release observations is available at the <a href="https://erosita.mpe.mpg.de/edr/">eROSITA-DE EDR website</a>. This database table was originally ingested by the HEASARC in August 2022 and is based upon the "eROSITA/eFEDS hard catalogue" file downloaded from the eROSITA-DE Early Data Release <a href="https://erosita.mpe.mpg.de/edr/eROSITAObservations/Catalogues/">catalogs web page</a>. It was revised in June 2024 in order to rename the right ascension, declination, and their related positional uncertainty parameters to match the parameter naming convention used in other eROSITA catalogs. In some cases, the HEASARC has altered the original field names, as per HEASARC conventions, and provides the original field names in square brackets. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .

- Eta Chamaeleontis eROSITA EDR Field X-Ray (2.3-5.0 keV) Source Catalog
- Short Name:
- ETACHAHARD
- Date:
- 07 Mar 2025
- Publisher:
- NASA/GSFC HEASARC
- Description:
- This database table contains the catalog of the X-ray sources in the eta Chamaeleontis field scan eROSITA observation (OBSID 300004; see Robrade et al., 2022) in the hard (2.3-5.0 keV) band. The nearby young open cluster eta Chamaeleontis was observed by eROSITA/SRG during its CalPV phase for 150 ks. The eROSITA data were taken in the field-scan mode, an observing mode of Spectrum-Roentgen-Gamma (SRG) that follows a rectangular grid-like pattern, covering a 5x5 deg field with an exposure depth of about 5 ks. The authors studied the known members in X-rays and searched for potential new members of the anticipated dispersed low-mass cluster population. Detected sources were identified by cross-matching X-ray sources with Gaia and 2MASS, and young stars were identified by their X-ray activity, by their position in the color-magnitude diagram, and by their astrometric and kinematic properties. X-ray luminosities, light curves, and spectra of cluster members were obtained and compared with previous X-ray data. Literature results of other member searches were used to verify the new member candidates in the observed field. The authors determined X-ray properties of virtually all known eta Cha members and identified five additional stellar systems that showed basically identical characteristics, but are more dispersed. Four of them were previously proposed as potential members; this status is supported by this X-ray study. Based on their spatial distribution, further members are expected beyond the sky region surveyed. The identified stellar systems very likely belong to the ejected halo population, which brings the total number of eta Cha cluster members to at least 23. <a href="/W3Browse/erosita/etachamain.html">ETACHAMAIN</a> is the related catalog of main (0.2-2.3 keV) sources. This database table was ingested by the HEASARC in August 2022 and is based upon a file downloaded from the eROSITA-DE Early Data Release <a href="https://erosita.mpe.mpg.de/edr/eROSITAObservations/Catalogues/">catalogs web page</a>.

- This database table contains the "main" (0.2-2.3 keV) catalog of the X-ray sources in the eta Chamaeleontis field scan eROSITA observation (OBSID 300004; see Robrade et al., 2022).
