- Description:
- X-ray emission from active galactic nuclei (AGN) is dominated by the accretion disk around a supermassive black hole. The radio luminosity, however, has not such a clear origin except in the most powerful sources where jets are evident. The origin (and even the very existence) of the local bi-modal distribution in radio-loudness is also a debated issue. By analyzing X-ray, optical and radio properties of a large sample of type 1 AGN and quasars (QSOs) up to z > 2, where the bulk of this population resides, the authors aim to explore the interplay between radio and X-ray emission in AGN, in order to further our knowledge on the origin of radio emission, and its relation to accretion. They analyze a large (~800 sources) sample of type 1 AGN and QSOs selected from the 2XMMi XMM-Newton X-ray source catalog, cross-correlated with the SDSS DR7 spectroscopic catalog, covering a redshift range from z ~ 0.3 to z ~ 2.3. Supermassive black hole masses are estimated from the Mg II emission line, bolometric luminosities from the X-ray data, and radio emission or upper limits from the FIRST catalog. Most of the sources accrete close to the Eddington limit and the distribution in radio-loudness does not appear to have a bi-modal behavior. This study confirms that radio-loud AGN are also X-ray loud, with an X-ray-to-optical ratio up to twice that of radio-quiet objects, even excluding the most extreme strongly jetted sources. By analyzing complementary radio-selected control samples, the authors find evidence that these conclusions are not an effect of the X-ray selection, but are likely a property of the dominant QSO population. The authors of this catalog conclude that their findings are best interpreted in a context where radio emission in AGN, with the exception of a minority of beamed sources, arises from very close to the accretion disk and is therefore heavily linked to X-ray emission. They also speculate that the radio-loud/radio-quiet dichotomy might either be an evolutionary effect that developed well after the QSO peak epoch, or an effect of incompleteness in small samples. Basic information and derived properties are presented for the sample of X-ray selected type 1 AGN (as well as for the 11 X-ray undetected type 1 AGN in the "control sample"): coordinates, redshift, X-ray and radio fluxes, optical magnitudes, from the SDSS, 2XMMi, and FIRST catalogs; continuum luminosities at 3000 Angstroms and in the X-ray band, black hole masses, bolometric luminosities, Eddington ratios; for the sources falling in the FIRST field, optical fluxes at 2500 and 4400 Angstroms, X-ray-to-optical index, radio classification, and the ratios between the radio and the UV, optical, and X-ray fluxes. This table was created by the HEASARC in October 2012 based on <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/J/A+A/545/A66">CDS Catalog J/A+A/545/A66</a> files table3.dat, table4.dat and table5.dat.

- Title:
- Swift Simultaneous UV, Optical, and X-Ray Observed Quasar Catalog
- Short Name:
- SWSDSSQSO
- Date:
- 02 May 2025
- Publisher:
- NASA/GSFC HEASARC
- Description:
- The authors have compiled a catalog of optically selected quasars with simultaneous observations in UV/optical and X-ray bands by the Swift Gamma-ray Burst Explorer. Objects in this catalog are identified by matching the Swift pointings with the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) Data Release 5 (DR5) quasar catalog. The final catalog contains 843 objects, among which 637 have both Ultraviolet Optical Telescope (UVOT) and X-Ray Telescope (XRT) observations and 354 of which are detected by both instruments. The overall X-ray detection rate is ~ 60% which rises to ~ 85% among sources with at least 10 ks of XRT exposure time. The authors construct the time-averaged spectral energy distribution (SED) for each of the 354 quasars using UVOT photometric measurements and XRT spectra. From model fits to these SEDs, they find that the big blue bump contributes about ~ 0.3 dex to the quasar luminosity. The authors re-visit the alpha<sub>ox</sub> - L<sub>2500A</sub> relation by selecting a clean sample with only Type 1 radio-quiet quasars; the dispersion of this relation is reduced by at least 15% compared with studies that use non-simultaneous UV/optical and X-ray data. They find only a weak correlation between L<sub>bol</sub>/L<sub>Edd</sub> and alpha<sub>UV</sub>. They do not find significant correlations between alpha<sub>x</sub> and alpha<sub>ox</sub>, alpha<sub>ox</sub> and alpha<sub>UV</sub>, and alpha<sub>x</sub> and log L(0.3-10 keV). The correlations between alpha<sub>UV</sub> and alpha<sub>x</sub>, alpha<sub>ox</sub> and alpha<sub>x</sub>, alpha<sub>ox</sub> and alpha<sub>UV</sub>, L<sub>bol</sub>/L<sub>Edd</sub> and alpha<sub>x</sub>, and L<sub>bol</sub>/L<sub>Edd</sub> and alpha<sub>ox</sub> are stronger among low-redshift quasars, indicating that these correlations are likely driven by the changes of SED shape with accretion state. This quasar sample was compiled in the following steps: 1. Candidate objects for the catalog were selected as any SDSS DR5 quasar that lie within 20 arcminutes of the center of the Swift FOV in any pointing from launch through 2008 June. 2. XRT data were processed to obtain X-ray count rates, spectra, and spectral parameters. 3. UVOT data were processed to obtain UV and optical photometry. 4. UVOT photometry were supplemented with measurements at other wavelengths from published catalogs. 5. Quasar SEDs were constructed. 6. Additional parameters were calculated based on the SEDs of each quasar. The raw sample is constructed by matching 3.5 years Swift pointings and the SDSS DR5 quasar catalog and contains 1034 objects. This HEASARC version of this catalog contains all 1034 objects in the "raw" catalog. To select only the 843 objects in the "final" catalog, the user should specify catalog_flag = 1 in any searches of this table. This table was created by the HEASARC in August 2012 based on an electronic version of Table 8 from the reference paper which was obtained from the ApJS web site.

- Title:
- Swift X-Ray Telescope Cluster Survey Catalog
- Short Name:
- SWXCSCAT
- Date:
- 02 May 2025
- Publisher:
- NASA/GSFC HEASARC
- Description:
- This table contains the Swift X-ray Cluster Survey (SWXCS) catalog obtained using archival data from the X-ray telescope (XRT) on board the Swift satellite acquired from 2005 February to 2012 November, extending the first release of the SWXCS. The catalog provides positions and soft X-ray fluxes for a flux-limited sample of X-ray group and cluster candidates. In Table 3 of the reference paper (available at the HEASARC as the linked table SWXCSOXID), when possible, optical counterparts are given for these candidates. The authors consider the fields with Galactic latitude |b| > 20 degrees so as to avoid regions of high H I column density. They discard all of the observations targeted at groups or clusters of galaxies, as well as particular extragalactic fields not suitable for searching for faint extended sources. The authors finally select ~ 3000 useful fields covering a total solid angle of ~ 400 deg<sup>2</sup>. They identify extended source candidates in the soft-band (0.5-2 keV) images of these fields using the software EXSdetect, which is specifically calibrated for the XRT data. Extensive simulations are used to evaluate contamination and completeness as a function of the source signal, allowing the authors to minimize the number of spurious detections and to robustly assess the selection function. The final catalog includes 263 candidate galaxy clusters and groups down to a flux limit of 7 x 10<sup>-15</sup> erg/cm<sup>2</sup>/s in the soft band (0.5 - 2.0 keV), and the log N - log S is in very good agreement with previous deep X-ray surveys. In the reference paper, the final list of sources is cross-correlated with published optical, X-ray, and Sunyaev-Zel'dovich catalogs of clusters. The authors find that 137 sources have been previously identified as clusters in the literature in independent surveys, while 126 are new detections. Currently, they have collected redshift information for 158 sources (60% of the entire sample). From the entire Swift XRT archive in the period 2005 February-2012 November, the authors have selected all the fields that can be used to build an unbiased, serendipitous X-ray cluster catalog. This table was created by the HEASARC in March 2015 based on an electronic version of Table 2 from the reference paper which was obtained from the CDS as their catalog J/ApJS/216/28 file table2.dat.

- Description:
- This table contains the Swift X-ray Cluster Survey (SWXCS) table of cross-correlations of the X-ray galaxy cluster and group candidates with optical, X-ray and Sunyaev-Zel'dovich catalogs and optical follow-up. The SWXCS list of cluster candidates was obtained using archival data from the X-ray telescope (XRT) on board the Swift satellite acquired from 2005 February to 2012 November, extending the first release of the SWXCS. The main catalog (available at the HEASARC as the linked table SWXCSCAT) provides positions and soft X-ray fluxes for a flux-limited sample of X-ray group and cluster candidates. The table herein (based on Table 3 of the reference paper) contains when possible, optical and other counterparts for these candidates. The authors consider the fields with Galactic latitude |b| > 20 degrees so as to avoid regions of high H I column density. They discard all of the observations targeted at groups or clusters of galaxies, as well as particular extragalactic fields not suitable for searching for faint extended sources. The authors finally select ~ 3000 useful fields covering a total solid angle of ~ 400 deg<sup>2</sup>. They identify extended source candidates in the soft-band (0.5-2 keV) images of these fields using the software EXSdetect, which is specifically calibrated for the XRT data. Extensive simulations are used to evaluate contamination and completeness as a function of the source signal, allowing the authors to minimize the number of spurious detections and to robustly assess the selection function. The final catalog includes 263 candidate galaxy clusters and groups down to a flux limit of 7 x 10<sup>-15</sup> erg/cm<sup>2</sup>/s in the soft band (0.5 - 2.0 keV), and the log N - log S is in very good agreement with previous deep X-ray surveys. In the reference paper, the final list of sources is cross-correlated with published optical, X-ray, and Sunyaev-Zel'dovich catalogs of clusters. The authors find that 137 sources have been previously identified as clusters in the literature in independent surveys, while 126 are new detections. Currently, they have collected redshift information for 158 sources (60% of the entire sample). The authors checked for counterparts in previous X-ray cluster surveys, in optical cluster surveys, and in the Planck SZ cluster survey. They simply assume a search radius of 2 arcminutes from the X-ray centroid, which has been shown to be an efficient criterion in Paper I. Nevertheless, they also inspected the area within 5 arcminutes from the X-ray centroid in order to investigate whether some possible identification is found at radii larger than 2 arcminutes. Counterparts at distances between 2 and 5 arcminutes are included when the optical or SZ corresponding source has a large uncertainty in its position. This is often the case for optical, sparse clusters, or for SZ cluster candidates. The authors list all of the counterparts associated with the SWXCS sources herein, and they include the measured redshift when available. In case of multiple counterparts, they list all of them. Except for a few cases where there are multiple counterparts with statistically inconsistent redshifts, the authors keep the counterpart with the smallest angular distance from the X-ray center. From optical surveys, the authors found 233 optical counterparts corresponding to 116 SWXCS sources. From X-ray surveys, they found 70 X-ray counterparts classified as clusters, corresponding to 36 SWXCS sources. Finally, for 15 SWXCS sources, they found 16 cluster counterparts detected via the SZ effect, 13 by Planck and 3 by the South Pole Telescope (SPT). The Planck sources are typically at larger distances from the X-ray centroid (between 1 and 3 arcminutes) because of the much larger position errors of Planck clusters. Overall, about half (137) of the 263 SWXCS sources were previously identified as groups or clusters of galaxies, while 126 SWXCS sources are new cluster and group candidates. The authors have collected spectroscopic or photometric redshifts for 130 of their sources. Moreover, to increase the number of available redshifts, they also searched in NED catalogs for single galaxies with published redshifts not associated with previously known clusters within a search radius of 7 arcseconds from the X-ray centroid of their sources. They find 50 galaxies with measured redshifts for 47 of their sources as a complement to the redshifts obtained from cluster counterparts. In 35 cases where the authors have both cluster and galaxy counterparts, the galaxy redshifts are consistent with those of clusters. In the 12 cases where no cluster counterpart is found, the authors tentatively assign the galaxy redshift to their X-ray source.

- Tartarus: Reduced ASCA AGN Data (Version 3.1)
- Short Name:
- ASCA/AGN
- Date:
- 02 May 2025
- Publisher:
- NASA/GSFC HEASARC
- Description:
- The Tartarus database contains the results of a detailed but systematic analysis of ASCA observations of active galactic nuclei (AGN). It contains source and background events files, spectra, ancillary response files and response matrices, images, and assorted light curves for a large number of ASCA AGN observations. Spectral fit results are done by automatic XSPEC fitting. This database table allows easy access to reduced AGN data for the whole community, allowing the maximum scientific return from the data. Availability of publishable light curves, images, and spectra (which can also be readily re-fitted) should be particularly valuable to astronomers with little direct experience in the reduction of X-ray data. Version 3.1 has been created by analyzing all ASCA observing sequences with targets designated as AGN, as indicated by a leading "7" in the ASCA observing sequence number. Version 3.1 contains products for all 611 observing sequences designated as AGN observations. This is a significant improvement over Versions 1 and 2. Moreover, the 611 sequences for which products are available are complete in the sense that either the target object was not detected (in which case an upper limit on GIS2 source counts is given) or the intended AGN target was detected and the data were fully analyzed. In order to obtain the most accurate background subtraction and minimize contamination from any nearby sources, version 3.1 makes more use of custom extraction regions than previous versions. It is expected that version 3.1 will be replaced when the final ASCA calibration is completed. This database table has been created by the Tartarus Team, and they, rather than Imperial College London or the HEASARC, are responsible for the contents. It was ingested by the HEASARC in August, 2005. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .

- Date:

- Publisher:
- NASA/GSFC HEASARC
- Description:
- This table contains an all-sky catalog of 869 nearby galaxies having individual distance estimates within 11 Mpc or corrected radial velocities relative to the Local Group centroid V<sub>LG</sub> < 600 km s<sup>-1</sup>. The catalog is a renewed and expanded version of the previous Catalog of Neighboring Galaxies by Karachentsev et al. (2004, AJ, 127, 2031). It collects data on the following galaxy observables: angular diameters, apparent magnitudes in the far-UV, B, and K<sub>s</sub> bands, H-alpha and H I fluxes, morphological types, H I-line widths, radial velocities, and distance estimates. In this Local Volume (LV) sample, 108 dwarf galaxies still remain without measured radial velocities. The catalog also lists calculated global galaxy parameters: the linear Holmberg diameters, absolute B magnitudes, surface brightnesses, H I masses, stellar masses estimated via K-band luminosity, H I rotational velocities corrected for galaxy inclination, indicative masses within the Holmberg radius, and three kinds of "tidal index" which quantify the local density environment. In the reference paper, the authors briefly discuss the Hubble flow within the LV and different scaling relations that characterize galaxy structure and global star formation in them. They also trace the behavior of the mean stellar mass density, H I-mass density, and star formation rate density within the volume considered. This table was created by the HEASARC in June 2013 based on electronic versions of Tables 1 and 2 from the reference paper which were obtained form the AJ web site.

- Updated Zwicky Catalog
- Short Name:
- UZC
- Date:

- Publisher:
- NASA/GSFC HEASARC
- Description:
- The Zwicky Catalog of Galaxies, with a magnitude limit m<sub>Zw</sub> <= 15.5, has been the basis for the Center for Astrophysics (CfA) redshift surveys. To date, analyses of the Zwicky Catalog and redshift surveys based on it have relied on heterogeneous sets of galaxy coordinates and redshifts. In this Updated Zwicky Catalog (UZC), some of the inadequacies of previous catalogs are corrected by providing (1) coordinates with ~<2 arcsecond errors for all of the 19,369 catalog galaxies, (2) homogeneously estimated redshifts cz (radial velocities) for the majority (98%) of the data taken at the CfA (14,632 spectra), and (3) an estimate of the remaining "blunder" rate for both the CfA redshifts and for those compiled from the literature. For the reanalyzed CfA data a calibrated, uniformly determined error and an indication of the presence of emission lines in each spectrum are included. Redshifts (radial velocities) are provided for the 7257 galaxies in the CfA2 redshift survey that were not previously published; for another 5625 CfA redshifts (radial velocities), the remeasured or uniformly rereduced values are listed. Among the new measurements, 1807 are members of UZC "multiplets" associated with the original Zwicky catalog position in the coordinate range where the catalog is 98% complete. These multiplets provide new candidates for examination of tidal interaction among galaxies. All of the new redshifts (radial velocities) correspond to UZC galaxies with properties recorded in the CfA redshift compilation known as ZCAT. The redshift catalog included in the UZC is ~96% complete to m<sub>Zw</sub> <= 15.5 and ~98% complete (12,925 galaxies out of a total of 13,150) for the right ascension ranges 20 hr >= RA(1950) <= 4 hr and 8 hr <= RA(1950) <= 17 hr and the declination range -2.5 degrees <= Dec(1950) <= 50 degrees. This more complete region includes all of the CfA2 survey as analyzed to the date of the publication of the UZC (1999). This database was created by the HEASARC in October 2000 based on a machine-readable version obtained from the CDS (Catalog J/PASP/111/438). It was slightly revised in February 2001 (the 'redshift' parameters were renamed as 'radial velocity' parameters to conform with the usage in other similar HEASARC extragalactic catalogs).

- Short Name:

- Date:

- Publisher:
- NASA/GSFC HEASARC
- Description:
- The Uppsala General Catalogue of Galaxies (UGC) is an essentially complete catalog of galaxies to a limiting diameter of 1.0 arcminute and/or to a limiting apparent magnitude of 14.5 on the blue prints of the Palomar Observatory Sky Survey (POSS). Coverage is limited to the sky north of declination -02.5 degrees. Galaxies smaller than 1.0 arcminute in diameter but brighter than 14.5 mag may be included from the Catalogue of Galaxies and of Clusters of Galaxies (CGCG, Zwicky et al. 1961-1968); all such galaxies in the CGCG are included in the UGC. The galaxies are numbered in order of their 1950.0 right ascension values. The catalog contains descriptions of the galaxies and their surrounding areas, plus conventional system classifications and position angles for flattened galaxies. Galaxy diameters on both the blue and red POSS prints are included and the classifications and descriptions are given in such a way as to provide as accurate an account as possible of the appearance of the galaxies on the prints. Only the data portion of the published UGC is included in the machine-readable version, notice. For additional details regarding the classifications, measurement of apparent magnitudes, and data content, the source reference should be consulted. This database table was first ingested by the HEASARC in September 2000 based on a machine-readable version of the UGC obtained from the ADC (ADC Catalog VII/26D). This latter version was a corrected and modified version of the original magnetic tape version of the UGC. A list of the types of changes and modifications made by the ADC is available at <a href="https://cdsarc.u-strasbg.fr/ftp/cats/VII/26D/ReadMe">https://cdsarc.u-strasbg.fr/ftp/cats/VII/26D/ReadMe</a>, while the list of the affected entries is available at <a href="https://cdsarc.u-strasbg.fr/ftp/cats/VII/26D/errors.dat.gz">https://cdsarc.u-strasbg.fr/ftp/cats/VII/26D/errors.dat.gz</a>. <p> The HEASARC last updated this database table in November 2021 upon reflection that the original catalog's coordinates were B1950 (instead of J1950, as originally assumed by the HEASARC). Due to the precision of the coordinates in this catalog, the difference is negligible. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .

- UV-Bright Quasar Survey (UVQS) DR1 Catalog
- Short Name:
- UVQS
- Date:
- 02 May 2025
- Publisher:
- NASA/GSFC HEASARC
- Description:
- This table contains data from the first data release (DR1) from the UV-bright Quasar Survey (UVQS) for new z ~ 1 active galactic nuclei (AGN) across the sky. Using simple GALEX UV and WISE near-IR color selection criteria, the authors generated a list of 1,450 primary candidates with FUV < 18.5 mag, that is contained in the HEASARC table (entries with source_sample = 'P'). They obtained discovery spectra, primarily on 3m-class telescopes, for 1,040 of these candidates and confirmed 86% as AGN, with redshifts generally at z > 0.5. Including a small set of observed secondary candidates, the authors report the discovery of 217 AGN with GALEX FUV magnitudes < 18 mag that previously had no reported spectroscopic redshifts. These are excellent potential targets for UV spectroscopy before the end of the Hubble Space Telescope mission. The main data products of UVQS are publicly available through the Mikulski Archive for Space Telescopes (MAST). The authors have performed an all-sky survey for z ~ 1, FUV-bright quasars selected from GALEX and WISE photometry. In several of the observing runs, conditions were unexpectedly favorable and we exhausted the primary candidates at certain right ascension ranges. To fill the remaining observing time, they generated a secondary candidate list. This secondary set of 2,010 candidates is also contained in this HEASARC table (entries with source_sample = 'S'). The authors proceeded to obtain discovery-quality long-slit spectra (i.e., low-dispersion, large-wavelength coverage, modest signal-to-noise ratio (S/N) of their UV-bright Quasar Survey (UVQS) candidates in one calendar year. The principal facilities were: (i) the dual Kast spectrometer on the 3m Shane telescope at the Lick Observatory; (ii) the Boller & Chivens (BCS) spectrometer on the Irenee du Pont 100-inch telescope at the Las Campanas Observatory; and (iii) the Calar Alto Faint Object Spectrograph on the CAHA 2.2-meter telescope at the Calar Alto Observatory (CAHA). They acquired an additional ~20 spectra on larger aperture telescopes (Keck/ESI, MMT/MBC, Magellan/MagE) during twilight or under poor observing conditions. Typical exposure times were limited to < ~200s, with adjustments for fainter sources or sub-optimal observing conditions. Table 3 in the reference paper provides a list of the details of the observations of these candidates. From the total candidates list of 3,460 objects, the authors measured high-quality redshifts (redshift quality flag values of 3 or greater) for 1,121 sources. They assumed that every source with a recessional velocity v<sub>r</sub> = z * c < 500 km s<sup>-1</sup> was "Galactic", which they associate with the Galaxy and members of the Local Group. This included sources where the eigenspectra fits were poor yet a low v<sub>r</sub> was indisputable (e.g., stars). Many of these were assigned z = 0 exactly. The remainder of the UVQS sources were assumed to be extragalactic AGN, and the derived redshift information for these sources (which was given in Table 4 of the reference paper) has been incorporated into this HEASARC representation of UVQS. Finally, there were 93 sources with good-quality spectra for which we cannot the authors could not recover a secure redshift. The majority of these have been previously cataloged as blazars (or BL Lac objects). Table 6 in the reference paper lists the sample of these unknown or insecure redshift objects. This table was created by the HEASARC in April 2017 based upon the <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/J/AJ/152/25">CDS Catalog J/AJ/152/25</a> files table1.dat, table2.dat, and table4.dat.
