- 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:
- For the detailed statistical analysis of the X-ray emission of hot stars we selected all stars of spectral type O and B listed in the Yale Bright Star Catalogue and searched for them in the ROSAT All-Sky Survey. In this paper we describe the selection and preparation of the data and present a compilation of the derived X-ray data for a complete sample of bright OB stars.

- 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.

- Publisher:
- CDS
- 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.

- Description:
- In a correlation study of the ROSAT All-Sky Survey Bright Source Catalogue (RASS-BSC, Cat. <XI/10>) with the Catalogue of Principal Galaxies (PGC, Cat. <VII/119>) 904 X-ray sources were found that possess possible extragalactic counterparts within a search radius of 100". File table1 contains 1124 optical galaxy entries and 904 relevant X-ray candidates/counterparts from the ROSAT All-Sky Survey. Besides a compilation of X-ray and optical parameters for each source, also the results of an identification screening are given. 547 optical/X-ray correlations have been quoted as reliable identifications. The 904 optical images with X-ray overlay contours (xID_nnn.ps.gz) used in the screening process are added for each user's own judgement.

- Description:
- We present X-ray data for all entries of the Third Catalogue of Nearby Stars (Gliese and Jahreiss, 1991, Cat. <V/70>) that have been detected as X-ray sources in the ROSAT all-sky survey. The catalogue contains 1252 entries yielding an average detection rate of 32.9 percent. In addition to count rates, source detection parameters, hardness ratios, and X-ray fluxes we also list X-ray luminosities derived from Hipparcos parallaxes.

- Description:
- The ROSAT Deep Survey in the Lockman Hole is the most sensitive X-ray survey performed to date, encompassing an exposure time of 207ksec with the PSPC and a total of 1.32Msec with the HRI aboard ROSAT. Here we present the complete catalogue of 50 X-ray sources with PSPC fluxes (0.5-2 keV) above 5.5x10^-15^erg/cm^2^/s.

- ROSAT detected quasars. I.
- Short Name:
- J/A+A/319/413
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We have compiled a sample of all quasars with measured radio emission from the Veron-Cetty - Veron catalogue (1993, VV93 <VII/166>) detected by ROSAT in the ALL-SKY SURVEY (RASS, Voges 1992), as targets of pointed observations, or as serendipitous sources from pointed observations as publicly available from the ROSAT point source catalogue (ROSAT-SRC, Voges et al. 1995). The total number of ROSAT detected radio quasars from the above three sources is 654 objects. 69 of the objects are classified as radio-quiet using the defining line at a radio-loudness of 1.0, and 10 objects have no classification. The 5GHz data are from the 87GB radio survey, the NED database, or from the Veron-Cetty - Veron catalogue. The power law indices and their errors are estimated from the two hardness ratios given by the SASS assuming Galactic absorption. The X-ray flux densities in the ROSAT band (0.1-2.4keV) are calculated from the count rates using the energy to counts conversion factor for power law spectra and Galactic absorption. For the photon index we use the value obtained for a individual source if the estimated 1 sigma error is smaller than 0.5, otherwise we use the mean value 2.14.

- Description:
- We have compiled a sample of all radio-quiet quasars or quasars without radio detection from the Veron-Cetty - Veron catalogue (1993, VV93, Cat. <VII/166>) detected by ROSAT in the ALL-SKY SURVEY (RASS, Voges 1992, in Proc. of the ISY Conference `Space Science', ESA ISY-3, ESA Publications, p.9, See Cat. <IX/10>), as targets of pointed observations, or as serendipitous sources from pointed observations publicly available from the ROSAT point source catalogue (ROSAT-SRC, Voges et al. 1995, Cat. <IX/11>). For all sources we used the results of the Standard Analysis Software System (SASS, Voges et al. 1992, in Proc. of the ISY Conference `Space Science', ESA ISY-3, ESA Publications, p.223), employing the most recent processing for the Survey data (RASS-II, Voges et al. 1996, Cat. <IX/10>). The total number of quasars is 846. 69 of the radio-quiet objects with radio detections have already been presented in a previous paper (Brinkmann, Yuan, & Siebert 1997, Cat. <J/A+A/319/413>) using the RASS-I results. 17 objects were found to be radio-loud from recent radio surveys and were marked in the table. When available, the power law photon indices and the corresponding absorption column densities (NH) were estimated from the two hardness ratios given by the SASS, both with free fitted NH and for Galactic absorption. The unabsorbed X-ray flux densities in the ROSAT band (0.1-2.4keV) were calculated from the count rates using the energy to counts conversion factor for power law spectra and Galactic absorption. As the photon index we used the value obtained for the individual source if the estimated 1-{sigma} error is smaller than 0.5, otherwise we used the redshift-dependent mean value (see the paper for details).
