- Description:
- The cross-correlation of the source list from the ROSAT All-Sky Survey with the 5 GHz Green Bank survey yields a list of 2127 objects. About two thirds of them are optically unidentified. The majority of the objects with known optical counterparts are quasars and radio galaxies, most of them detected in X-rays for the first time. In this paper we present a list of the previously optically identified objects with their main characteristics and discuss their general (bulk) properties. We find strong correlations between luminosities in the radio, optical, and X-ray bands which differ for quasars and radio galaxies.

- Description:
- The ROSAT All-Sky Survey Bright Source Catalogue (RASS-BSC, revision 1RXS) is derived from the all-sky survey performed during the first half year (1990/91) of the ROSAT mission. 18,806 sources are catalogued (five sources were removed compared to the 18,811 sources of the 1996 version), down to a limiting ROSAT PSPC count-rate of 0.05cts/s in the 0.1-2.4keV energy band, with a detection likelihood of at least 15 and with at least 15 source photons. For 94% of the sources visual inspection confirmed the results of the standard processing with respect to existence and position; the remaining 6% were re-analysed and appropriately flagged. At a brightness limit of 0.1cts/s (8,547 sources) the catalogue represents a sky coverage of 92%. Broad band images are available for a subset of the flagged sources from http://www.rosat.mpe-garching.mpg.de/survey/rass-bsc . Questions or comments may be directed to <xray-info(at)mpe.mpg.de>

- Description:
- This database table contains the list German ROSAT All-Sky Survey observations which were obtained during the ROSAT All-Sky Survey phase (1990 July 30 to 1991 Jan 25) and which have become available to the public. These data were obtained in scanning mode and therefore an individual dataset covers a much larger area of the sky than do pointed moded observations. In addition all these data were obtained with PSPC-C, while all pointed mode observations after the end of the All-Sky Survey were obtained with PSPC-B. For each observation listed in this database table, the instrument used, processing site, and coordinates of the field center are given, as well as the ROSAT observation request number (ROR), actual exposure time, date the observation took place, and more. For details about the ROSAT instruments, consult the ROSAT Mission Description (NASA Research Announcement for ROSAT, Appendix F and its addendum) and the ROSAT GSFC GOF website at <a href="http://heasarc.gsfc.nasa.gov/docs/rosat/rosgof.html">http://heasarc.gsfc.nasa.gov/docs/rosat/rosgof.html</a> for more information.

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- The ROSAT All-Sky Survey Faint Source Catalogue (RASS-FSC) is derived from the all-sky survey performed during the ROSAT mission in the energy band 0.1-2.4 keV. 105,924 sources are catalogued and represent the faint extension to the RASS bright source catalogue (RASS-BSC, 1999A&A...349..389V, See Cat. <IX/10>). The sources have a detection likelihood of at least 7 and contain at least 6 source photons. (The likelihood of source detection is defined as L = -ln(1-P), with P = probability of source detection). For each source we provide the ROSAT name, the position in equatorial coordinates, the positional error, the source countrate and error, the background countrate, exposure time, date of observation, hardness-ratios HR1 and HR2 and errors, extent and likelihood of extent, and likelihood of detection.

- Description:
- This database table contains the list of all Röntgen Satellite (ROSAT) X-Ray Telescope (XRT) pointing-mode observations for which data sets are available, i.e., it excludes the ROSAT All-Sky Survey observations. Users should consult the RASSMASTER database table for those XRT observations which were made in scanning mode during the ROSAT All-Sky Survey (RASS) phase (30 July 1990 to 25 January 1991, and 3 August 1991 to 13 August 1991). For each observation listed in this table, parameters such as the focal-plane instrument used, the data processing site, and the target name and coordinates are given, as well as the ROSAT Observation Request (ROR) number, the actual and requested exposure times, the date(s) on which the observation took place, etc. For details about the ROSAT instruments, consult the ROSAT Guest Observer Facility (GOF) website at <a href="https://heasarc.gsfc.nasa.gov/docs/rosat/">https://heasarc.gsfc.nasa.gov/docs/rosat/</a>. A list of the available online ROSAT documentation can be found at <a href="https://heasarc.gsfc.nasa.gov/docs/rosat/rosdocs.html">https://heasarc.gsfc.nasa.gov/docs/rosat/rosdocs.html</a>. This table was created by the HEASARC in July 2004 by combining the data from two long-standing HEASARC Browse tables into one master table. It was updated by the HEASARC in March 2022 to add start and end times for the 157 sequence IDs which did not already have start and end times. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .

- Description:
- We present new spectra of dominant galaxies in X-ray-selected clusters of galaxies, which combine with our previously published spectra to form a sample of 256 dominant galaxies in 215 clusters. 177 of the clusters are members of the ROSAT Brightest Cluster Sample (BCS; Ebeling et al., 1998MNRAS.301..881E), and 17 have no previous measured redshift. This is the first paper in a series correlating the properties of brightest cluster galaxies and their host clusters in the radio, optical and X-ray wavebands.

- Description:
- The ROSAT Bright Survey (RBS, table "rosat.dat") aims to completely optically identify the 2072 brightest sources detected in the ROSAT all-sky survey (Cat. <IX/10>) at galactic latitudes |b|>30{deg} (excluding LMC, SMC, Virgo cluster), with countrate above 0.2s^-1^; this program is 99.5% complete, and a sub-sample of 931 sources with countrate above 0.2s^-1^ in the hard spectral band between 0.5 and 2.0keV is 100% identified. The total survey area comprises 20391{deg}^2^ at a flux limit of 2.4x10^-12^erg/cm^2^/s in the 0.5-2.0keV band. Tables 1 and 3 examine the "RHS" sub-sample of 66 bright point-like ROSAT survey sources with almost hard PSPC spectra (hardness ratio HR1>0.5) which could be nearly completely identified by low-resolution optical spectroscopy with the following breakdown into object classes: 31 Seyfert galaxies (20 Sy1), 22 BL Lac candidates, 5 clusters of galaxies, 1 cataclysmic variable, and 5 bright stars. Only one object remained unidentified and one X-ray source was a spurious detection.

- Publisher:

- Description:
- The ROSHRITOTAL data table contains a list of sources detected by the Standard Analysis Software System (SASS) in reprocessed, public HRI datasets. In addition to the parameters returned by SASS (like position, count rate, signal-to-noise, etc.) each source in the table has associated with it a set of source and sequence "flags." These flags are provided by the ROSAT data centers in the US, Germany and the UK to help the user of the ROSHRITOTAL database table quickly judge the reliability of a given source. The ROSHRITOTAL database table is a superset of the ROSHRI database table. The ROSHRI table excludes sources that meet the following parameter criteria: false_det = 'T' or deferred = 'T' or not_checked = 'T' or un_unique ='T'. See the documentation below for descriptions of these parameters. These data have been screened by ROSAT data centers in the US, Germany, and the UK as a step in the production of the ROSAT Results Archive. The RRA contains extracted source and associated products with an indication of reliability for the primary parameters. This database table was last updated in August 2001. More information about the ROSAT Results Archive for HRI sources can be obtained at the following web pages: <pre> <a href="http://heasarc.gsfc.nasa.gov/docs/rosat/rra/RRA.html">http://heasarc.gsfc.nasa.gov/docs/rosat/rra/RRA.html</a> <a href="http://hea-www.harvard.edu/rosat/rra.html">http://hea-www.harvard.edu/rosat/rra.html</a> <a href="http://www.aip.de/groups/xray/rosat/rra.html">http://www.aip.de/groups/xray/rosat/rra.html</a> <a href="http://ledas-www.star.le.ac.uk/rra">http://ledas-www.star.le.ac.uk/rra</a> </pre> This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .
