This table contains the source table from an analysis of 15 Chandra ACIS observations of the nearby spiral galaxy M81 taken over the course of six weeks in 2005 May-July. Each observation reaches a sensitivity of ~10³⁷ erg s^-1. With these observations and one previous deeper Chandra observation (the properties of which are described in Table 1 and Section 2 of the reference paper), the authors have compiled a master source list of 265 point sources, extracted and fitted their spectra, and differentiated basic populations of sources through their colors. They also carried out variability analyses of individual point sources and of X-ray luminosity functions (XLFs) in multiple regions of M 81 on timescales of days, months, and years. They find that, despite measuring significant variability in a considerable fraction of sources, snapshot observations provide a consistent determination of the XLF of M81. They also fit the XLFs for multiple regions of M81 and, using common parametrization, compare these luminosity functions to those of two other spiral galaxies, M31 and the Milky Way. This table contains the 265 point sources at or above the 99.9% probability level of being real according to AE's PROB_NO_SOURCE statistic (the "master" source list), and 11 additional "borderline" sources which have 99.0-99.9% probability of being real according to AE's PROB_NO_SOURCE statistic, for a total of 276 sources whose properties were described in Tables 3 and 4 of the reference paper. The 265 "master" sources have source numbers from 1 to 265 while the 11 "borderline" sources have source numbers beginning with 'B', e.g., they have source numbers 'B1' to 'B11'. Note that only coordinates are listed for 3 sources in the master source list (source numbers 234, 241 and 262) and 2 sources in the borderline source list (B8 and B9) because they were only in the field of view (on chip) of one observation (ObsID 735). Six additional sources near the center of M81 which were found using maximum likelihood image reconstruction are not included in either the master or borderline source lists contained herein but their positions are listed in table 2 of the reference paper. This table was created by the HEASARC in August 2011 based on electronic versions of Tables 3 and 4 from the reference paper which were obtained from the ApJ web site. Some of the values for the name parameter in the HEASARC's implementation of this table were corrected in April 2018. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .

This table contains the main X-ray source catalog for the Chandra monitoring observations of the 16.5-Mpc distant elliptical galaxy, NGC 4649. The galaxy has been observed with Chandra ACIS-S3 in six separate pointings, reaching a total exposure of 299 ks. There are 501 X-ray sources detected in the 0.3-8.0 keV band in the merged observation or in one of the six individual observations; 399 sources are located within the D₂₅ ellipse. The observed 0.3-8.0 keV luminosities of these 501 sources range from 9.3 x 10³⁶ erg s^-1 to 5.4 x 10³⁹ erg s^-1. The 90% detection completeness limit within the D₂₅ ellipse is 5.5 x 10³⁷ erg s^-1. Based on the surface density of background active galactic nuclei (AGNs) and the detection completeness, we expect ~ 45 background AGNs among the catalog sources (~ 15 within the D₂₅ ellipse). There are nine sources with luminosities greater than 10³⁹ erg s^-1, which are candidates for ultraluminous X-ray sources. The nuclear source of NGC 4649 is a low-luminosity AGN, with an intrinsic 2.0-8.0 keV X-ray luminosity of 1.5 x 10³⁸ erg s^-1. The X-ray colors suggest that the majority of the catalog sources are low-mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs). The authors find that 164 of the 501 X-ray sources show long-term variability, indicating that they are accreting compact objects, and discover four transient candidates and another four potential transients. They also identify 173 X-ray sources (141 within the D₂₅ ellipse) that are associated with globular clusters (GCs) based on Hubble Space Telescope and ground-based data; these LMXBs tend to be hosted by red GCs. Although NGC 4649 has a much larger population of X-ray sources than the structurally similar early-type galaxies, NGC 3379 and NGC 4278, the X-ray source properties are comparable in all three systems. This HEASARC table contains the main Chandra source catalog of the basic properties of the 501 X-ray detected sources (Table 3 in the reference paper which includes both sources detected in the merged X-ray image as well as a number only detected in the individual observations), and also the information on source counts, hardness ratios and soft and hard X-ray colors in the merged observation for the same 501 X-ray detected sources (Table 4 in the reference paper). It does not contain the information on source counts, hardness ratios and soft and hard X-ray colors for these same sources in the six individual observations that were contained in Tables 5 - 10 of the reference paper. This table was created by the HEASARC in March 2013 based on the electronic version of Tables 3 and 4 from the reference paper which were obtained from the ApJS website..

This table lists some of the properties of the discrete X-ray sources detected in the authors' monitoring program of the globular cluster (GC)-rich elliptical galaxy, NGC 4278, observed with Chandra ACIS-S in six separate pointings, resulting in a co-added exposure of 458 ks. From this deep observation, 236 sources have been detected within the region overlapped by all observations, 180 of which lie within the D₂₅ ellipse angular diameter of the galaxy. These 236 sources range in X-ray luminosity L_X from 3.5 x 10³⁶ erg s^-1 (with 3-sigma upper limit <= 1 x 10³⁷ erg s^-1) to ~2 x 10⁴⁰ erg s^-1, including the central nuclear source which has been classified as a LINER. From optical data, 39 X-ray sources have been determined to be coincident with a GC, these sources tend to have high X-ray luminosity, with 10 of these sources exhibiting L_X > 1 x 10³⁸ erg s^-1. From X-ray source photometry, it has been determined that the majority of the 236 point sources that have well-constrained colors have values that are consistent with typical low-mass X-ray binary spectra, with 29 of the sources expected to be background objects from the log N-log S relation. There are 103 sources in this population that exhibit long-term variability, indicating that they are accreting compact objects. Three of these sources have been identified as transient candidates, with a further three possible transients. Spectral variations have also been identified in the majority of the source population, where a diverse range of variability has been identified, indicating that there are many different source classes located within this galaxy. This HEASARC table contains the master source list (Table 3 of the reference paper) and the X-ray properties of the sources in the co-added observations (Table 4 of the reference paper), but not the X-ray properties of the sources in the 6 individual observations (Tables 5-10 of the reference paper). The details of the six individual pointings used in this study, e.g., the Chandra ObsIDs, dates, exposure times and cleaned exposure times, are given in Table 1 of the reference paper, and repeated here:

The authors of this table have obtained a series of deep X-ray images of the nearby (4.61 Mpc) galaxy M 83 using Chandra, with a total exposure of 729 ks. Combining the new data with earlier archival observations totaling 61 ks, they find 378 point sources within the D₂₅ contour of the galaxy. The authors find 80 more sources, mostly background active galactic nuclei (AGNs), outside of the D₂₅ contour. Of the X-ray sources, 47 have been detected in a new radio survey of M 83 obtained using the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA). Of the X-ray sources, at least 87 seem likely to be supernova remnants (SNRs), based on a combination of their properties in X-rays and at other wavelengths. The authors attempt to classify the point source population of M 83 through a combination of spectral and temporal analysis. As part of this effort, in the reference paper they carry out an initial spectral analysis of the 29 brightest X-ray sources. The soft X-ray sources in the disk, many of which are SNRs, are associated with the spiral arms, while the harder X-ray sources, mostly X-ray binaries (XRBs), do not appear to be. After eliminating AGNs, foreground stars, and identified SNRs from the sample, the authors construct the cumulative luminosity function (CLF) of XRBs brighter than 8 x 10³⁵ erg s^-1. Despite M 83's relatively high star formation rate, the CLF indicates that most of the XRBs in the disk are low mass X-ray binaries (XRBs). The X-ray observations of M 83 in this survey were all carried out with the ACIS-S in order to maximize the sensitivity to soft X-ray sources, such as SNRs, and to diffuse emission. The nucleus of M 83 was centered in the field of the back-illuminated S3 chip to provide reasonably uniform coverage of M 83. In addition to the S3 chip, data were also obtained from chips S1, S2, S4, I2, and I3. All of the observations were made in the "very faint" mode to optimize background subtraction. Observations were spaced over a period of one year from 2010 December to 2011 December, as indicated in Table 1 of the reference paper. The only difference among observations was the roll orientation of the spacecraft and the differing exposure times. All of the observations were nominal, and yielded a total of 729 ks of useful data. In order to maximize their sensitivity and more importantly to improve their ability to identify time variable sources, the authors included in their analysis earlier Chandra observations of M 83 in 2000 and 2001 totaling 61 ks which were obtained by G. Rieke (Prop ID. 1600489) and by A. Prestwich (Prop ID. 267005758). These data were obtained in a very similar manner to that of the present survey, and increased the total exposure to 790 ks. The authors used ACIS EXTRACT (AE) to derive net count rates from the sources in various energy bands: 0.35 - 8.0 keV (total or T), 0.35 - 1.1 keV (soft or S), 1.1 - 2.6 keV (medium or M), 2.6 - 8.0 keV (hard or H), 0.5 - 2.0 keV ("normal" soft band) and 2.0 - 8.0 keV ("normal" hard band). Their choice of these bands was based on a variety of overlapping goals. The broad 0.35 - 8.0 keV band samples the full energy range accessible to Chandra observations. The three bands S, M and H provide energy ranges intended to classify sources on the basis of their hardness ratios. The boundary at 1.1 keV, in particular, is just above the region containing strong features due to Ne and Fe seen in the spectra of most SNRs. The 0.5 - 2.0 keV and 2.0 - 8.0 keV bands are needed because number counts of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) and of X-ray binary populations are normally carried out in these bands and because the 0.5 - 2.0 keV band, encompassing the peak of the response curve, provides better statistics for some purposes than S+M. The AE count rates were used to establish which of the sources in the candidate list were statistically valid. The authors retained any source that had a probability-of-no-source < 5 x

A Chandra X-Ray Observatory ACIS-S imaging observation is used to study the population of X-ray sources in the nearby (3.6 Mpc) Sab galaxy M 81 (NGC 3031). A total of 177 sources are detected, with 124 located within the D_25 isophote to a limiting X-ray luminosity of ~ 3 x 10³⁶ erg/s. Source positions, count rates, luminosities in the 0.3 - 8.0 keV band, limiting optical magnitudes, and potential counterpart identifications are tabulated. Spectral and timing analysis of the 36 brightest sources are reported, including the low-luminosity active galactic nucleus, SN 1993J, and the Einstein-discovered ultraluminous X-ray source X6. The primary X-ray data set is a 49926 s observation of M81 obtained on 2000 May 7 with the Chandra Advanced CCD Imaging Spectrometer (ACIS) spectroscopy array operating in imaging mode. The X-ray data were reprocessed by the Chandra X-ray Center (CXC) on 2001 January 4. These reprocessed data were used in this work. There are no significant differences between the reprocessed data and the originally distributed data analyzed by Tennant et al. (2001ApJ...549L..43T). The observation was taken in faint timed exposure mode at 3.241 s/frame at a focal plane temperature of -120 C. Standard CXC processing has applied aspect corrections and compensated for spacecraft dither. The primary target, SN 1993J, was located near the nominal aimpoint on the back-illuminated (BI) device S3. The nucleus of M81 lies 2.79' from SN 1993J toward the center of S3 in this observation. Accurate positions of these two objects and two G0 stars located on device S2 were used to identify any offset and to determine absolute locations of the remaining Chandra sources as well as objects in other X-ray images and those obtained at other wavelengths. No offset correction was applied to the Chandra X-ray positions. This table was created by the HEASARC in March 2007 based on the CDS table J/ApJS/144/213, files table2.dat and table3.dat.

This table contains the sources detected in a Chandra X-ray observation of the Galactic globular cluster NGC 2808, as well as the corresponding XMM-Newton data for those sources which have XMM-Newton X-ray counterparts. Using new Chandra X-ray observations and existing XMM-Newton X-ray and Hubble Space Telescope far-ultraviolet observations, the authors aim to detect and identify the faint X-ray sources belonging to NGC 2808 in order to understand their role in the evolution of globular clusters. The authors classify the X-ray sources associated with the cluster by analysing their colors and variability. Previous observations with XMM-Newton and far-ultraviolet observations with Hubble are re-investigated to help identify the Chandra sources associated with the cluster. The authors compare their results to population synthesis models and observations of other Galactic globular clusters. NGC 2808 was observed with the Chandra X-ray Observatory Advanced CCD Imaging Spectrometer-Imager (ACIS-I) on 2007 June 19-21 (28 months after the XMM-Newton observation referred to the reference paper) for two distinct exposures of 46 and 11 kiloseconds. The authors detect 113 sources, of which 16 fall inside the half-mass radius of NGC 2808 and are concentrated towards the cluster core.
