- Title:
- EUVE Second Source Catalog
- Short Name:
- EUVE/2
- Date:
- 07 Mar 2025
- Publisher:
- NASA/GSFC HEASARC
- Description:
- This is the 2nd Catalog of EUV objects detected by the Extreme Ultraviolet Explorer (EUVE) and published by Bowyer et al. in 1996 (ApJS, 102, 129). The data include (i) all-sky survey detections from the initial 6-months scanner survey phase, (ii) additional scanner detections made later during specially programmed observations designed to fill in low-exposure sky areas of the initial survey, (iii) sources detected with deep-survey telescope observations along the ecliptic plane, (iv) objects detected by the scanner telescopes during targeted spectroscopy observations, and (v) other observations. Plausible optical, X-ray, radio, and/or UV identifications are available for about 65% of the EUV sources. The EUVE all-sky survey detections (indicated by detect_mode = EASS in this catalog) comprise 514 detected EUV-emitting objects, the deep-survey detections (indicated by detect_mode = DS in this catalog) comprise 35 detected objects, and the sources detected during other phases of the mission (indicated by detect_mode = OTHER in this database) comprise 188 detected objects. Notice that 3 deep survey objects were also detected in the all-sky survey. Most of the sources detected in the other phases principally comprise those detected in deep exposures with the scanner telescopes as part of the Right Angle Program through December 24, 1994, or in long exposures with the deep survey instrument. Because these latter objects were observed with a variety of instruments and exposure strategies, the flux limits and detection thresholds vary over a wide range, and the Bowyer et al. reference should be consulted for more details. Some of the EUV sources have alternative cross-identifications at other wavelengths suggested for them. Notice that, in such cases, we have followed the original catalog and listed separate entries for each alternate identification. For example, the EUV-emitting object EUVE J1147+202 is listed twice, once with the suggested ID of DQ Leo, and a second time with the suggested ID of BD +21 2357. Thus, there are 801 entries in this database corresponding to 737 unique EUV sources. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .

- Exoplanet Orbit Database
- Short Name:
- EXOPLANODB
- Date:
- 07 Mar 2025
- Publisher:
- NASA/GSFC HEASARC
- Description:
- The Exoplanet Orbit Database is a database of well-determined orbital parameters of exoplanets, and their host stars' properties. This database comprises spectroscopic orbital elements measured for planets orbiting their host stars from radial velocity and transit measurements as reported in the literature. The authors have also compiled fundamental transit parameters, stellar parameters, and the method used for the planets discovery. This Exoplanet Orbit Database includes all planets with robust, well measured orbital parameters reported in peer-reviewed articles. In addition to this HEASARC representation, the database is available in a searchable, filterable, and sortable form online through the Exoplanets Data Explorer table at <a href="http://exoplanets.org">http://exoplanets.org</a>, and the data can be plotted and explored through the Exoplanet Data Explorer plotter which is available at that web site. In their paper, the authors use the Data Explorer to generate publication-ready plots, giving three examples of the signatures of exoplanet migration and dynamical evolution: They illustrate the character of the apparent correlation between mass and period in exoplanet orbits, the different selection biases between radial velocity and transit surveys, and that the multi-planet systems show a distinct semi-major-axis distribution from apparently singleton systems. This table was first created by the HEASARC in August 2012 based on a machine-readable version of the Exoplanet Orbit Database which was obtained from the authors' web site (<a href="http://exoplanets.org">http://exoplanets.org</a>), file exoplanets.csv. It is updated usually within a day of whenever the source file is updated. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .
283. EXOSAT Bibliography

- Title:
- EXOSAT Bibliography
- Short Name:
- EXOPUBS
- Date:
- 07 Mar 2025
- Publisher:
- NASA/GSFC HEASARC
- Description:
- This database table contains information about all EXOSAT publications in refereed journals that make use of EXOSAT data. Each entry is unique for every combination of publication and X-ray source. For example, a paper which discusses five X-ray sources will have generated five distinct entries in the database, each referring to a different X-ray source. Unlike EXOLOG, the EXOPUBS database also includes entries for serendipitous sources. In addition to standard database parameters such as source name, coordinates, object class, etc., the EXOPUBS includes the full reference (authors, journal, volume, page, year) and title of each publication. Note the information is not complete after the year 1991. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .

- Title:
- EXOSAT/CMA High Galactic Latitude Survey
- Short Name:
- EXOSAT/High
- Date:
- 07 Mar 2025
- Publisher:
- NASA/GSFC HEASARC
- Description:
- A survey of serendipitous source performed in the very soft X-ray band (0.05-2.0 keV) using the EXOSAT imaging telescopes is presented. The survey covers 783 square degrees of high galactic latitude sky and includes 210 serendipitous sources which define a complete (flux-limited) sample. An extensive program of optical and radio observatories together with cross-correlations with catalogs of known objects lead to the identification of 200 of the 210 detected sources. The 10 remaining objects have been preliminarily classified on the basis of their X-ray to optical flux ratios, thus making the sample essentially fully identified. Twenty-three additional serendipitous sources which did not satisfy the requirements for inclusion in the complete sample were also identified during the optical observations program. The complete sample has been used to study the logN-logS relation and the average spectral slope of AGN. It is found that the logN-logS slope is consistent with that of the Einstein Extended Medium Sensitivity Survey (EMSS) and with the "Euclidean" value of 1.5. The normalization of the logN-logS is a strong function of the assumed spectral slope of AGN. Consistency with the results of the EMSS implies that the average (energy) slope of extragalactic sources in the soft X-ray band is very steep (alpha ~ 1.5). An analysis of the association between AGN detection and Galactic NH also shows that alpha is steep and inconsistent with the canonical value of 0.7. The survey was particularly successful in detecting nearby Galactic soft X-ray emitters and includes a significantly higher percentage of stars than the Einstein EMSS, five White Dwarfs, and three previously unknown AM Her type systems. The sample of sources in this catalog has been selected from the CMA database, which it has been generated using a standard processing on the LE data. The source detection algorithm used a sliding cell method. The size of the search cell is such as to maximize the sensitivity across the field of view. For more information about the LE processing see the documentation in the CMA database. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .

- EXOSAT CMA Images for Each Pointing
- Short Name:
- CMAIMAGE
- Date:
- 07 Mar 2025
- Publisher:
- NASA/GSFC HEASARC
- Description:
- This database table contains the images from two EXOSAT LE telescopes with the channel multiplier array (CMA) detectors in the focal plane. The CMA/telescope combination covers the 0.05-2.5 keV energy range with a field of view of 2 degrees and an on-axis angular resolution of 24 arc seconds (HEW). The detectors had no intrinsic spectral capabilities; however, different filters were used to make broad band measurements. The most commonly used were Thin Lexan (number 7), Aluminum-Parylene (number 6) and Boron (number 8). An image was generated for each filter used during an observation. This Browse table was created in March 1995 and updated in October 2003. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .

- Publisher:
- NASA/GSFC HEASARC
- Description:
- This database table contains the results of the sources detected from the two EXOSAT LE telescopes. Each telescope had a channel multiplier array, CMA, detector in the focal plane. The CMA/telescope combination covered the 0.05-2.0 keV energy range with a field of view of 2 degrees and an on-axis angular resolution of 20 arcseconds (HEW). The detectors had no intrinsic spectral capabilities; however, different filters were used to make broad band measurements. The most commonly used were thin Lexan (no. 7), Aluminum-Parylene (no. 6) and Boron (no. 8). An image was generated for each observation using a particular filter. A detection program was used to generate one database entry per source detected above a particular threshold. This catalog contains the list of detected sources, details about those detections, plus the names of the files containing the associated image and lightcurves. Since many objects were observed many times, there are multiple entries per object. The list of detections in this database table has been screened for quality. Only sources with qflag_le >= 3 are present. Please refer to the <a href="/W3Browse/exosat/cma.html">CMA</a> database table for the complete, unscreened list of detections. This database table was created by the HEASARC in August 2020, and it is based on a table created by the HEASARC in 1995 or earlier. The original CMA database table was created at the EXOSAT observatory during the post-operation phase (1986-1990) as part of the pipeline processing. These CMA results are part of the HEASARC data holdings from the start of the HEASARC. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .

- Publisher:
- NASA/GSFC HEASARC
- Description:
- The EXOFOT database table contains the log of the EXOSAT final observation tapes (FOTs). It is meant to help locate the desired EXOSAT data file within the HEASARC data archive. The table itself contains a minimal number of parameters regarding the observation. This information corresponds to the first 255 bytes which label the FOT. Those parameters are target name, experiment, and start and stop time. The other parameters in the table are more related to the organization of the archive.

- Publisher:
- NASA/GSFC HEASARC
- Description:
- The EXOMASTER database contains the EXOSAT observation log. This is a complete list of all EXOSAT observations, observing modes, and principal investigators. The log can be used to find out which targets were observed by EXOSAT, who observed them and the observation configuration. In addition this database can also be used to check the availability of the FOT (Final Observation Tape) files (the original raw data files) and their reformatted FITS files. This database table was originally created in September/October, 1997. The HEASARC revised this database table in August, 2006, in order to fix the equatorial coordinates (which were in the wrong equinox) and to rename or convert some of the time-related fields to better conform with current HEASARC practices. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .
