- Description:
- This IUE (International Ultraviolet Explorer) Observation Log contains a summary of all IUE Newly Extracted Spectra (INES), which resulted from a post-processing effort at VILSPA. It was constructed by using verified data from the IUE Final Archive Master Catalog. The observations cover the whole life of the IUE satellite, from March 1978 to September 1996. This online catalog was ingested by the HEASARC in August 2004 based on the machine-readable table VI/110/inescat.dat obtained from the CDS data center. In May 2020, the program_id values of "\" were changed by the HEASARC to nulls for improved database compatibility. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .

- Description:
- Launched in late 2021, the Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) is a NASA Small Explorer Mission in collaboration with the Italian Space Agency (ASI). The mission measures X-ray polarization from compact objects such as neutron stars and black holes, which serve as laboratories for exploring extreme gravitational and magnetic fields. With its imaging capabilities, IXPE will also map the magnetic-field structure of a few extended sources such as supernova remnants and pulsar wind nebulae. This table contains a list of (a) unobserved targets that are planned for observation by IXPE in the future and (b) IXPE observations which have been processed and successfully validated by the IXPE team. The data from these observations may or may not be public and the user should check the value of the public_date parameter to determine the status of a specified data set. Only those ObsIDs which have a public_date in the past will have data publicly available. Observations with a public_date parameter value which is either blank or a date in the future have been ingested into the HEASARC archive but will remain encrypted until their public date. This contents of this database table are generated by the IXPE Team and updated regularly with new observations. These updates are then delivered to the HEASARC and ingested into the HEASARC database in a timely fashion. Note that some parameters have been added and are populated by the HEASARC.

- Kappa Orionis XMM-Newton X-Ray Point Source Catalog
- Short Name:

- Description:
- X-rays are a powerful probe of activity in the early stages of star formation. They allow us to identify young stars even after they have lost the IR signatures of circumstellar disks and provide constraints on their distance. Here, the authors report on XMM-Newton observations that detected 121 young stellar objects (YSOs) in two fields between the filamentary dark cloud complex Lynds 1641S and the star Kappa Ori. These observations extend the Survey of Orion A with XMM and Spitzer (SOXS). The YSOs are contained in a ring of gas and dust apparent at millimeter wavelengths, and in far-IR and near-IR surveys. The X-ray luminosity function of the YSOs detected in the two fields indicates a distance of 250-280 pc, much closer than the Orion A cloud and similar to the distance estimates for Kappa Ori. The authors propose that the ring is a 5-8 pc diameter shell that has been swept up by Kappa Ori. This ring contains several groups of stars detected by Spitzer and WISE including one surrounding the Herbig Ae/Be star V1818 Ori. In this interpretation, the Kappa Ori ring is one of several shells swept up by massive stars within the Orion Eridanus Superbubble and is unrelated to the southern portion of Orion A/L 1641S. The XMM-Newton observations consist of two fields, north (Field N = KN) and south (Field S = KS), and were obtained in 2015 March 10 and 15 using EPIC as the primary instrument. Table 1 in the reference paper shows the details of the exposures, each one with a duration of about 50 ks and taken with the Medium filter. The authors used SAS version 14.0 to reduce the observation data files (ODFs) and to obtain calibrated lists of events for the MOS and pn instruments. They filtered the events in the 0.3-0.8 keV energy band and used only events with FLAG = 0 and PATTERN < 12 as prescribed by the SAS manual. With SAS, the authors obtained exposure maps in the 0.3-8.0 keV band and performed source detection with a code based on wavelet convolution that operated simultaneously on MOS and pn data. They used a threshold of significance of 4.5 sigma of the local background to discriminate real sources from spurious background fluctuations. However, they added few sources to the final list with significance S in 4.0 < S < 4.5 for the cases of positional match with objects in SIMBAD or PPMX catalogs. The final list was also checked for spurious sources that could appear at the border of the CCDs. In sum, the authors detected 238 X-ray sources with significance > 4 sigma of the local background; 104 sources are in KN and 134 in KS. The authors cross-correlated the positions of the X-ray sources with the coordinates of the IR catalog of Megeath et al. (2012, AJ, 144, 192). This IR catalog is the result of a survey of Orion with Spitzer that produced a classification of protostars and stars with disks. Of the 238 X-ray sources, 191 are identified within 8 arcseconds of one of 206 IR objects, 99 sources in KS, 92 sources in KN. Some X-ray sources were multiple matches within 8 arcsec of IR objects. For these cases, the authors assigned the most likely counterparts based on IR photometry and visual inspection of X-rays and IR images. However, nine X-ray sources were left associated with two or three IR objects. Among the IR matches, the authors found 15 stars with disks in KN and 35 in KS with X-ray detection. One protostar in KN and three in KS were detected in X-rays. The authors used X-ray detection of sources without IR excess as criteria to identify disk-less stars (hereafter Class III stars). They classified as Class III stars those IR objects with X-ray detections, with [4.5um]-[8.0um] colors < 0.3 mag and brighter than [4.5um] magnitude < 14. At the distance of the ONC (400 pc), the [4.5um] magnitude ~ 14 threshold at an age of 4-5 Myrs roughly identifies M3-M4 spectral types and masses around 0.3 solar masses. With this selection scheme, the authors identified 48 objects in KN and 19 in KS as Class III candidates.

- Publisher:
- NASA/GSFC HEASARC
- Description:
- This is the Kommers et al. (2001) Non-Triggered Burst Supplement to the BATSE Gamma-Ray Burst (GRB) Catalog. It contains 873 "non-triggered" GRBs that were detected in a search of the BATSE Archival continuous data recorded between 1991 December 9 and 1997 December 17 for which the BATSE on-board burst trigger was not activated, for example because the burst was too faint to exceed the on-board detection threshold or it occurred while the on-board trigger was disabled for technical reasons. For each burst, the catalog gives an estimated source direction, duration, peak flux, and fluence. This catalog increases the number of GRBs detected using BATSE by 48% during the time period covered by the search. This database table was created at the HEASARC in September 2001 using the authors' file <a href="http://space.mit.edu/BATSE/ntgrb-ascii.html">http://space.mit.edu/BATSE/ntgrb-ascii.html</a> This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .

- LALA Bootes Field Chandra X-Ray Point Source Catalog
- Short Name:
- LALABOOCXO
- Date:

- Publisher:
- NASA/GSFC HEASARC
- Description:
- This table contains the results of an analysis of a deep, 172 ks Chandra observation of the Large Area Lyman Alpha survey (LALA) Bootes field which was obtained with the Advanced CCD Imaging Spectrometer (ACIS-I) on board the Chandra X-Ray Observatory. This is one of the deepest Chandra images of the extragalactic sky, with only the 2 Ms Chandra Deep Field North (CDF-N) and the 1 Ms Chandra Deep Field South (CDF-S) observations being substantially deeper. In this table, the X-ray source catalog obtained from this image is presented, along with some results from an analysis of the X-ray source counts and optical identifications. The X-ray image is composed of two individual observations obtained in 2002 and reaches 0.5 - 2.0 and 2.0 - 10.0 keV flux limits of 1.5 x 10<sup>-16</sup> and 1.0 x 10<sup>-15</sup> ergs/cm<sup>2</sup>/s, respectively, for point sources near the aim point. A total of 168 X-ray sources were detected: 160 in the 0.5 - 7.0 keV band, 132 in the 0.5 - 2.0 keV band, and 111 in the 2.0 - 7.0 keV band. Since X-ray source number 122 has two possible optical counterparts, it is listed twice, once for each counterpart, and the total number of entries in this table is this 169. The primary optical data are R-band imaging from the NOAO Deep Wide-Field Survey (NDWFS), with a limiting magnitude of R = 25.7 magnitudes, (Vega, 3-sigma detection level, and a 4" diameter aperture). Optical counterparts within 1.5" or the 3-sigma X-ray positional uncertainties, whichever was larger, were detected above this level in the R band for 144 of the 168 X-ray sources. At least 90% of the optical counterparts should be the correct matches, and, at worst, there might be ~14 false matches.

- LALA Cetus Field Chandra X-Ray Point Source Catalog
- Short Name:

- Date:

- Publisher:
- NASA/GSFC HEASARC
- Description:
- The 174 ks Chandra Advanced CCD Imaging Spectrometer (ACIS) exposure of the Large Area Lyman Alpha Survey (LALA) Cetus field is the second of the two deep Chandra images on LALA fields. In their paper, the authors present the Chandra X-ray sources detected in the Cetus field, along with an analysis of X-ray source counts, the stacked X-ray spectrum, and the optical identifications. A total of 188 X-ray sources were detected: 174 in the 0.5-7.0 keV band, 154 in the 0.5-2.0 keV band, and 113 in the 2.0-7.0 keV band. The X-ray source counts were derived and compared with the 172 ks exposure LALA Bootes field (available as the LALABOOCXO table in Browse). Interestingly, the authors find consistent hard-band X-ray source density, but a (36 +/- 12)% higher soft-band X-ray source density in the Cetus field. The weighted stacked spectrum of the detected X-ray sources can be fitted by a power law with photon index Gamma = 1.55. Based on the weighted stacked spectrum, the authors find that the resolved fraction of the X-ray background drops from (72 +/- 1)% at 0.5-1.0 keV to (63 +/- 4)% at 6.0-8.0 keV. The unresolved spectrum can be fitted by a power law over the range 0.5-7 keV, with a photon index Gamma = 1.22. Optical counterparts are also presented for 154 of the X-ray sources, down to a limiting magnitude of r' = 25.9 (Vega), using a deep r'-band image obtained with the MMT.

- Publisher:
- NASA/GSFC HEASARC
- Description:
- This table contains a list of known cosmic microwave background (CMB) experiments, with links to their home pages (if available), a brief description, some of the more important properties of the experiment, and, whenever possible, links to internal Legacy Archive for Microwave Background Data Analysis (LAMBDA: <a href="http://lambda.gsfc.nasa.gov/">http://lambda.gsfc.nasa.gov/</a>) pages which provide the publicly available data from these experiments. LAMBDA serves as a long-term repository for these archives. If an experiment of interest to you is missing from the list, or there is experimental data you would like to provide, please contact the LAMBDA team via the suggestion form at <a href="http://lambda.gsfc.nasa.gov/contact/contact.cfm">http://lambda.gsfc.nasa.gov/contact/contact.cfm</a>. The table contains links to the individual project websites, which will typically provide the most comprehensive collections of data. The data_type and lambda_data_link parameters contains descriptions of the type of data from the specified experiment that is available at LAMBDA, and the link to that data held at LAMBDA, respectively. Initially the data at LAMBDA might be a subset of the data at the project website, but the LAMBDA holdings will grow with time and they will be maintained as a permanent archive. Two of the listed LAMBDA data sets, namely those from the IRAS and SWAS satellites, are not, strictly speaking, directly related to the CMB, but, for historical reasons, are (partially in the case of IRAS, fully in the case of SWAS) located at LAMBDA. This table was created by the LAMDBA and HEASARC teams based on the Web page summary of CMB experiments at <a href="http://lambda.gsfc.nasa.gov/product/expt/">http://lambda.gsfc.nasa.gov/product/expt/</a>, as well as on other LAMBDA metadata.

- Lambda Orionis Cluster XMM-Newton X-Ray Point Source Catalog
- Short Name:
- LAMORIXMM
- Date:

- Publisher:
- NASA/GSFC HEASARC
- Description:
- The authors studied the X-ray properties of the young (~1-8M yr) open cluster around the hot (O8 III) star Lambda Ori and compared them with those of the similarly-aged Sigma Ori cluster in order to investigate the possible effects of the different ambient environments. They analyzed an XMM-Newton observation of the cluster using EPIC imaging and low-resolution spectral data. They studied the variability of the detected sources, and performed a spectral analysis of the brightest sources in the field using multi-temperature models. The authors detected 167 X-ray sources above a 5-sigma detection threshold the properties of which are listed in this table, of which 58 are identified with known cluster members and candidates, from massive stars down to low-mass stars with spectral types of ~ M5.5. Another 23 sources were identified with new possible photometric candidates. Late-type stars have a median log L<sub>X</sub>/L<sub>bol</sub> ~ -3.3, close to the saturation limit. Variability was observed in ~ 35% of late-type members or candidates, including six flaring sources. The emission from the central hot star Lambda Ori is dominated by plasma at 0.2 - 0.3 keV, with a weaker component at 0.7 keV, consistent with a wind origin. The coronae of late-type stars can be described by two plasma components with temperatures T<sub>1</sub> ~ 0.3-0.8 keV and T<sub>2</sub> ~ 0.8-3 keV, and subsolar abundances Z ~ 0.1-0.3 Z<sub>sun</sub>, similar to what is found in other star-forming regions and associations. No significant difference was observed between stars with and without circumstellar discs, although the smallness of the sample of stars with discs and accretion does not definitive conclusions to be drawn. The authors concluded that the X-ray properties of Lambda Ori late-type stars are comparable to those of the coeval Sigma Ori cluster, suggesting that stellar activity in Lambda Ori has not been significantly affected by the different ambient environment. The lambda Ori cluster was observed by XMM-Newton from 20:46 UT on September 28, 2006 to 12:23 UT on September 29, 2006 (Obs. ID 0402050101), for a total duration of 56ks, using both the EPIC MOS and PN cameras and the RGS instruments. The EPIC cameras were operated in full frame mode with the thick filter.

- NASA/GSFC HEASARC
- Description:
- Positions, redshifts, and magnitudes for the 1055 quasars in the Large Bright Quasar Survey (LBQS) are presented in a single catalog. Celestial positions have been rederived using the PPM catalog to provide an improved reference frame. Redshifts calculated via cross correlation with a high signal-to-noise ratio composite quasar spectrum are included and the small number of typographic and redshift misidentifications in the discovery papers are corrected. Compared to the discovery papers (references below), 12 quasars that are either fainter than the field magnitude limit or fall outside the final survey area have been deleted, 12 quasars that were discovered subsequent to paper V have been added, 10 redshifts have been corrected, and 13 quasars with either incorrect or degenerate designations (LBQS names) have had their designations corrected. The information in this version of the LBQS Catalog is the same as in Table 4 of the published paper with the following exceptions: (i) the object 0021-0213 has a redshift of 2.348; this value was listed in Table 5 of the paper but was not incorporated in Table 4 of the paper; (ii) the parameter 'Reference' in Table 4 of the published paper (which specified in which paper in the LBQS series the quasar spectrum could be found) has been omitted; and (iii) the parameter 'Notes' in Table 4 of the published paper had two non-blank values: '+' and 'a'; in the HEASARC representation of this catalog we have replaced the Notes value of '+' by 'C', and dropped the Notes value of 'a' (used to indicate objects that had been listed as AGN in earlier papers). This catalog was created by the HEASARC in July 1999 based on a table that was kindly provided by the first author, Paul Hewett, supplemented by documentation created by the CDS/ADC.
