- 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 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>. 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 .

- eROSITA Observations Master Catalog
- Short Name:
- EROSMASTER
- Date:

- Publisher:
- NASA/GSFC HEASARC
- Description:
- This is the eROSITA Master Catalog which has been created from information supplied to the HEASARC by the <a href="https://erosita.mpe.mpg.de/edr/eROSITAObservations/">eROSITA-DE</a> team. This database table contains the list of observations made by the SRG eROSITA mission. Currently, the German eROSITA Consortium (eROSITA-DE) has made public the observations obtained during the Calibration and Performance Verification (Cal-PV) program for which it holds data exploitation rights. Over one hundred individual pointing and field scans were performed with eROSITA as a prime instrument between mid-September and mid-December 2019 form part of the Cal-PV program. For practical purposes, the eROSITA-DE team has divided the Cal-PV observations into four categories: <pre> Survey fields: These are scan observations of large, contiguous areas of the sky. Magellanic Clouds: These are observations around the Small and Large Magellanic Clouds. Galactic fields: These include observations with |Galactic latitude| < 17 deg. Extragalactic fields: These include observations with |Galactic latitude| > 17 deg. </pre> The HEASARC has created this database table, based on the observations from the shared public data, and added links to associated <a href="https://heasarc.gsfc.nasa.gov/db-perl/W3Browse/w3table.pl?MissionHelp=srg-erosita">eROSITA</a> catalogs and data products, where available. The HEASARC produced this database table based on information obtained from the eROSITA-DE website in July 2023. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .

- Eta Chamaeleontis eROSITA EDR Field X-Ray (0.2-2.3 keV) Source Catalog
- Short Name:
- ETACHAMAIN
- Date:
- 10 May 2024
- Publisher:
- NASA/GSFC HEASARC
- Description:
- 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). 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/etachahard.html">ETACHAHARD</a> is the related catalog of hard band (2.3-5.0 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>.
