- Title:
- Fifth IBIS/ISGRI Soft Gamma-Ray Survey Catalog
- Short Name:
- IBISCAT
- Date:
- 03 May 2024
- Publisher:
- NASA/GSFC HEASARC
- Description:
- This table contains an all-sky soft gamma-ray source catalog based on IBIS observations performed during the first 1000 orbits of INTEGRAL. The database for the construction of the source list consists of all good-quality data available, from the launch of INTEGRAL in 2002, up to the end of 2010. This corresponds to ~ 110 Ms of scientific public observations, with a concentrated coverage on the Galactic Plane and extragalactic deep exposures. This new catalog includes 939 sources above a 4.5-sigma significance threshold detected in the 17-100 keV energy band, of which 120 sources represent previously undiscovered soft gamma-ray emitters. The source positions are determined, mean fluxes are provided in two main energy bands, and these are both reported together with the overall source exposure. Indicative levels of variability are provided, and outburst times and durations are given for transient sources. In the reference paper, a comparison is made with previous IBIS catalogs and catalogs from other similar missions. This database table, the Fifth IBIS/ISGRI source catalog, was ingested by the HEASARC in September 2016 based on the machine-readable version of Table 2 of the above-cited paper, which was obtained from the CDS website. It replaced the previous (fourth) version. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .

- CDS
- Description:
- We report the first high-energy survey catalog obtained with the IBIS gamma-ray imager on board INTEGRAL. The analysis has been performed on the first-year Core Program ISGRI data comprising both Galactic Plane Scan and Galactic Centre Deep Exposure pointings for a total exposure time exceeding 5Ms. This initial survey has revealed the presence of ~120 sources detected with the unprecedented sensitivity of ~1mCrab in the energy range 20-100keV. Each source is located to an accuracy between 1' and 3', depending on its brightness. The outstanding IBIS capability to locate soft {gamma}-ray emitters has allowed us to identify most of the detected sources with already known Galactic X-ray binary systems, while 28 of the objects are of unknown nature.

- Title:
- First INTEGRAL SPI-ACS Gamma-Ray Burst Catalogue
- Short Name:
- J/A+A/438/1175
- Date:
- 21 Oct 2021
- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We present the sample of gamma-ray bursts detected with the anti-coincidence shield ACS of the spectrometer SPI on-board INTEGRAL for the first 26.5 months of mission operation (up to Jan 2005). SPI-ACS works as a nearly omnidirectional gamma-ray burst detector above ~80keV but lacks spatial and spectral information. In this catalogue, the properties derived from the 50ms light curves (e.g., T_90_, C_max_, C_int_, variability, V/V_max_) are given for each candidate burst in the sample. A strong excess of very short events with durations <0.25s is found. This population is shown to be significantly different from the short- and long-duration burst sample by means of the intensity distribution and V/V_max_ test and is certainly connected with cosmic ray hits in the detector. A rate of 0.3 true gamma-ray bursts per day is observed.

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We present results of an all-sky hard X-ray survey based on almost four years of observations with the IBIS telescope onboard the INTEGRAL observatory. The dead time-corrected exposure of the survey is about 33Ms. Approximately 12% and 80% of the sky has been covered to limiting fluxes lower than 1 and 5mCrab, respectively. Our catalog of detected sources includes 403 objects, 316 of which exceed a 5{sigma} detection threshold on the time-averaged map of the sky, and the rest were detected in various subsamples of exposures.

- INTEGRAL Bright Source Catalog
- Short Name:
- INTEGRAL/BSC
- Date:
- 03 May 2024
- Publisher:
- NASA/GSFC HEASARC
- Description:
- The INTEGRAL Bright Source Catalog is based on publicly available data from the two main instruments (IBIS and SPI) on board INTEGRAL (see Winkler et al. 2003, A&A, 411, L1 for a description of the INTEGRAL spacecraft and instrument packages). INTEGRAL began collecting data in October 2002. This catalog will be regularly updated as data become public (~14 months after they are obtained). The Bright Source Catalog is a collaborative effort between the INTEGRAL Science Data Center (ISDC) in Switzerland and the NASA Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC) INTEGRAL Guest Observer Facility (GOF). The results presented here are a result of a semi-automated analysis and they should be considered as approximate: they are intended to serve as a guideline to those interested in pursuing more detailed follow-up analyses. The data from the imager ISGRI (Lebrun et al. 2003, A&A, 411, L141) have been analyzed at the INTEGRAL Science Data Centre (ISDC), while the SPI (Vedrenne et al. 2003, A&A, 411, L63) data analysis was performed at GSFC as a service of the INTEGRAL GOF. This database table was first created in September 2004. It is based on the online web page maintained by the INTEGRAL GOF at the URL <a href="http://heasarc.gsfc.nasa.gov/docs/integral/INTEGRAL_bright_sources.html">http://heasarc.gsfc.nasa.gov/docs/integral/INTEGRAL_bright_sources.html</a> and is updated on a weekly basis whenever the web page is updated.

- Description:
- The First INTEGRAL SPI-ACS Gamma-Ray Burst (GRB) Catalog contains the sample of gamma-ray bursts detected with the Anti-Coincidence Shield (ACS) of the SPI spectrometer on-board the INTEGRAL spacecraft for the first 26.5 months of mission operations (up to January 2005). The SPI-ACS works as a nearly omnidirectional gamma-ray burst detector above ~80 keV, but it lacks spatial and spectral information. In this catalog, the properties derived from the 50 millisecond (ms) light curves (e.g., T_90, C_max, C_int, variability, and V/V_max) are given for each candidate burst in the sample. A strong excess of very short events with durations < 0.25 seconds is found. This population is shown to be significantly different from the short- and long-duration burst sample by means of the intensity distribution and the V/V_max test and is certainly connected with cosmic ray hits in the detector. A rate of 0.3 true gamma-ray bursts per day is observed. This table lists the properties of 388 GRB candidates detected from Oct 27, 2002 to Jan 15, 2005 with the Anti-Coincidence Shield (ACS) of SPI. It has numerous events with missing entries, notice. For all GRBs which were confirmed by other instruments but were detected by SPI-ACS below the sample selection threshold, only the time, date, significance and common instruments are listed. Furthermore, the variability measure was obtained only for long-duration events which had sufficiently large signal-to-noise ratios. This table was created by the HEASARC in October 2005 based on CDS table J/A+A/438/1175/table2.dat . This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .

- INTEGRAL IBIS AGN Catalog
- Short Name:
- INTIBISAGN
- Date:
- 03 May 2024
- Publisher:
- NASA/GSFC HEASARC
- Description:
- In this work, the authors present the most comprehensive INTEGRAL active galactic nucleus (AGN) sample. It lists 272 AGN for which they have secure optical identifications, precise optical spectroscopy and measured redshift values plus X-ray spectral information, i.e. 2-10 and 20-100 keV fluxes plus column densities. In their paper, the authors mainly use this sample to study the absorption properties of active galaxies, to probe new AGN classes and to test the AGN unification scheme. The authors find that half (48%) of the sample is absorbed, while the fraction of Compton-thick AGN is small (~7%). In line with their previous analysis, they have however shown that when the bias towards heavily absorbed objects which are lost if weak and at large distance is removed, as is possible in the local Universe, the above fractions increase to become 80% and 17%, respectively. The authors also find that absorption is a function of source luminosity, which implies some evolution in the obscuration properties of AGN. A few peculiar classes, so far poorly studied in the hard X-ray band, have been detected and studied for the first time such as 5 X-ray bright optically normal galaxies (XBONGs), 5 type 2 QSOs and 11 low-ionization nuclear emission regions. In terms of optical classification, this sample contains 57% type 1 and 43% type 2 AGN; this subdivision is similar to that found in X-rays if unabsorbed versus absorbed objects are considered, suggesting that the match between optical and X-ray classifications is on the whole good. Only a small percentage of sources (12%) does not fulfill the expectation of the unified theory as the authors find 22 type 1 AGN which are absorbed and 10 type 2 AGN which are unabsorbed. Studying in depth these outliers they found that most of the absorbed type 1 AGN have X-ray spectra characterized by either complex or warm/ionized absorption more likely due to ionized gas located in an accretion disc wind or in the bi-conical structure associated with the central nucleus, therefore unrelated to the toroidal structure. Among the 10 type 2 AGN which are unabsorbed, at most 3-4% are still eligible to be classified as 'true' type 2 AGN. In the fourth INTEGRAL/IBIS survey (Bird et al. 2010, ApJS, 186, 1, available in the HEASARC database as the IBISCAT4 table), there are 234 objects which have been identified with AGN. To this set of sources, the present authors then added 38 galaxies listed in the INTEGRAL all-sky survey by Krivonos et al. (2007, A&A, 475, 775, available in the HEASARC database as the INTIBISASS table) updated on the website (<a href="http://hea.iki.rssi.ru/integral/survey/catalog.php">http://hea.iki.rssi.ru/integral/survey/catalog.php</a>) but not included in the Bird et al. catalog due to the different sky coverage (these latter sources are indicated with hard_flag = 'h' values in this HEASARC table). The final data set presented and discussed in the reference paper and constituting this table therefore comprises 272 AGN and was last updated in March 2011 March. It represents the most complete view of the INTEGRAL extragalactic sky as of the date of publication in 2012. This table was created by the HEASARC in October 2014 based on CDS Catalog J/MNRAS/426/1750 files tablea1.dat and refs.dat. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .

- INTEGRAL IBIS AGN Catalog Update
- Short Name:

- Publisher:

- Description:
- In the most recent IBIS survey based on observations performed during the first 1000 orbits of INTEGRAL, there are listed 363 high-energy emitters firmly associated with AGN, 107 of which are reported here for the first time. The authors have used X-ray data to image the IBIS 90% error circle of all the AGN in the sample of 107, in order to obtain the correct X-ray counterparts, locate them with arcsecond accuracy and therefore pinpoint the correct optical counterparts. This procedure has led to the optical and spectral characterization of the entire sample. This new set consists of 34 broad line or type 1 AGN, 47 narrow line or type 2 AGN, 18 blazars and 8 sources of unknown class. These eight sources have been associated with AGN from their positional coincidence with 2MASX/Radio/X-ray sources. Seven high-energy emitters have also been included since they are considered to be good AGN candidates. Spectral analysis has been already performed on 55 objects and the results from the most recent and/or best statistical measurements have been collected. For the remaining 52 sources, the authors report the spectral analysis for the first time in this work. They have been able to obtain full X-ray coverage of the sample making use of data from Swift/XRT, XMM-Newton and NuSTAR. In addition to the spectral characterization of the entire sample, this analysis has enabled the authors to identify peculiar sources and by comparing different data sets, highlight flux variability in the 2-10 keV and 20-40 keV bands. In the reference paper, the authors present the X-ray and optical follow-up work on 107 new AGN recently detected by INTEGRAL. Fortunately, they have been able to obtain full X-ray coverage of the entire sample making use of data from the Swift/XRT, Newton-XMM, and NuSTAR archives or through Swift/XRT follow-up observations that they triggered. The HEASARC notes that this table of AGN newly detected by INTEGRAL and not included in the original INTEGRAL IBIS AGN Catalog (Malizia et al. 2012, MNRAS, 426, 1750, available at the HEASARC as the INTIBISAGN table) actually contains 108 AGN plus 8 candidate AGN, for a total of 116 objects, rather than the 107 plus 7 candidate AGN totalling 114 objects that are quoted in the abstract of the reference paper (and stated above). The reason for this discrepancy is not known to the HEASARC. This table was created by the HEASARC in November 2017 based on <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/J/MNRAS/460/19">CDS Catalog J/MNRAS/460/19</a> files tablea1.dat and refs.dat.

- Description:
- The INTEGRAL IBIS All-Sky Survey of Hard X-Ray Sources table contains the results from a paper which is the second in a series devoted to the hard X-ray (17 - 60 keV) whole sky survey which has been performed by the INTEGRAL observatory over its first seven years of observations. This table contains the catalog of detected sources and includes 521 objects, 449 of which exceed a 5-sigma detection threshold on the time-averaged map of the sky, and 53 which were detected in various sub-samples of exposures. Among the identified sources with known and suspected natures, 262 are Galactic (101 low-mass X-ray binaries, 94 high-mass X-ray binaries, 37 cataclysmic variables, and 30 of other types) and 221 are extragalactic, including 217 active galactic nuclei (AGNs) and 4 galaxy clusters. The extragalactic (|b| > 5 degrees) and Galactic (|b| < 5 degrees) persistently detected source samples have high identification completeness (respectively ~96% and ~93%) and are valuable for population studies. The current INTIBISASS table is based on the data provided in Krivonos et al. (2010: Paper II below) and replaces the earlier version available at the HEASARC from February 2008 to December 2010 which was based on Krivonos et al. (2007). This table was updated by the HEASARC in December 2010 based on the <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/J/A+A/523/A61">CDS catalog J/A+A/523/A61</a> (specifically, the table2.dat and refs.dat files). It was originally created by the HEASARC in February 2008 based on <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/J/A+A/475/775">CDS catalog J/A+A/475/775</a>, which was superseded by this version.
