MassiveYoungStar-FormingComplexStdyinIR&X-Rays:MYStIXProbComplexMbrs
The Massive Young Star-forming complex Study in Infrared and X-rays (MYStIX) project requires samples of young stars that are likely members of 20 nearby Galactic massive star-forming regions. Membership is inferred from statistical classification of X-ray sources, from detection of a robust infrared excess that is best explained by circumstellar dust in a disk or infalling envelope and from published spectral types that are unlikely to be found among field stars. This table contains the MYStIX membership lists, which total 31,549 probable complex members. In their reference paper, the authors describe in detail the statistical classification of X-ray sources via a "Naive Bayes Classifier". These membership lists provide the empirical foundation for subsequent MYStIX science studies. The MYStIX project, described by Feigelson et al. (2013, ApJS, 209, 26), seeks to identify and study samples of young stars in 20 nearby (0.4 < D < 3.6kpc) Galactic massive star-forming regions (MSFRs). These samples are derived using X-ray data from the Chandra X-ray Observatory, near-infrared (NIR) photometry from the United Kingdom InfraRed Telescope (UKIRT) and from the Two Micron All Sky Survey (2MASS), mid-infrared (MIR) photometry from the Spitzer Space Telescope, and from published spectroscopically-identified massive stars. The purpose of this study is to describe the authors' efforts to minimize contaminants in the MYStIX catalogs of young stars. They refer to these latter objects as the "MYStIX Probable Complex Members" or MPCMs. This table contains the combined MPCM catalog for all 20 of the MYStIX MSFRs. This MPCM catalog is the union of three sets of probable members identified by three different established methods for identifying young stars (see Feigelson et al. 2013, ApJS, 209, 26, Fig. 3). Most of the X-ray information on the MPCMs (with the exception of the X-ray luminosities and absorbing column densities obtained using XPHOT) was produced by the ACIS Extract (AE) software package (Broos et al. 2010, ApJ, 714, 1582 and 2012, Astrophysics Source Code Library, 1203.001). The AE software and User's Guide are available at <a href="http://www.astro.psu.edu/xray/acis/acis_analysis.html">http://www.astro.psu.edu/xray/acis/acis_analysis.html</a>. X-ray quantities using the 'fb' prefix are for the full or total energy band from 0.5 - 8.0 keV, those using the 'sb' prefix are for the soft band from 0.5 - 2.0 keV, and those using the 'hb' prefix are for the hard band from 2.0 - 8.0 keV. L. K. Townsley and P. S. Broos (2013, in preparation) and Kuhn et al. (2013, ApJS, 209, 27) identify a few very bright X-ray sources in each region that suffer from a type of instrumental non-linearity known as photon pile-up (<a href="http://cxc.harvard.edu/ciao/why/pileup_intro.html">http://cxc.harvard.edu/ciao/why/pileup_intro.html</a>); X-ray properties reported for those sources are biased and should be used with caution.

MassiveYoungStar-FormingComplexStudyinIR&X-Rays:X-RaySourceCatalog
공공데이터포털
The Massive Young Star-forming complex Study in Infrared and X-ray (MYStIX) uses data from the Chandra X-Ray Observatory to identify and characterize the young stellar populations in 20 Galactic (d < 4 kpc) massive star-forming regions. In this present study, the X-ray analysis for Chandra ACIS-I observations of 10 of the MYStIX fields is described, and a catalog of > 10,000 X-ray sources is presented in this table. In comparison to other published Chandra source lists for the same regions, the number of MYStIX-detected faint X-ray sources in a region is often doubled. While the higher catalog sensitivity increases the chance of false detections, it also increases the number of matches to infrared stars. X-ray emitting contaminants include foreground stars, background stars, and extragalactic sources. The X-ray properties of sources in these classes are discussed in the reference paper. The X-ray observations were made with the imaging array on the Advanced CCD Imaging Spectrometer (ACIS-I) on board the Chandra X-Ray Observatory. This array of four CCD detectors subtends 17' x 17' on the sky. The number of different Chandra pointings for each region, the total exposures for these pointings, and details of how the observations were taken are provided in Table 1 of the reference paper. Overall, 29 Chandra ObsIDs are included with typical integration times for a pointing of 40 - 100 ks, sufficient to detect most OB stars and lower-mass pre-main-sequence stars down to ~ 0.5 - 1 solar masses for the MYStIX regions. The 10 MYStIX MSFRs treated herein are listed in Table 2 of the reference paper. The data were acquired from the Chandra Data Archive from 2001 Jan to Mar 2008 for 10 MYStIX fields (the Flame Nebula, RCW 36, NGC 2264, the Rosette Nebula, the Lagoon Nebula, NGC 2362, DR 21, RCW 38, Trifid Nebula and NGC 1893). The X-ray photometry is from Broos et al. (2010, ApJ, 714, 1582; ACIS Extract); see also the CCCP, Broos et al. (2011, ApJS, 194, 2). The source significance quantities (fb_prob_no_src, sb_prob_no_src, hb_prob_no_src and prob_no_src_min) are computed using a subset of each source's extractions chosen to maximize significance (Broos et al. 2010, ApJ, 714, 1582, Section 6.2). The source position and positional uncertainty quantities are computed using a subset of each source's extractions chosen to minimize the position uncertainty (Broos et al. 2010, ApJ, 714, 1582, Sections 6.2 and 7.1). All other quantities are computed using a subset of each source's extractions chosen to balance the conflicting goals of minimizing photometric uncertainty and of avoiding photometric bias (Broos et al. 2010, ApJ, 714, 1582, Sections 6.2 and 7). The observed and absorption-corrected energy fluxes and their associated errors and the estimated hydrogen column densities and their uncertainties are derived using non-parametric procedures (XPHOT, Getman et al. 2010, ApJ, 708, 1760). XPHOT assumes the X-ray spectral shapes of young, low-mass stars, which come from coronal X-ray emission. XPHOT quantities will therefore be unreliable for high-mass stars, for which X-ray emission is associated with the stellar wind.

MassiveYoungStar-FormingComplexStudyinIR&X-Rays:IR-ExcessSources
공공데이터포털
The Massive Young Star-Forming Complex Study in Infrared and X-rays (MYStIX) project provides a comparative study of 20 Galactic massive star-forming complexes with distances between 0.4 and 3.6 kpc. Probable stellar members in each target complex are identified using X-ray and/or infrared data via two pathways: (1) X-ray detections of young/massive stars with coronal activity/strong winds or (2) infrared excess (IRE) selection of young stellar objects (YSOs) with circumstellar disks and/or protostellar envelopes. In this particular study, the authors present the methodology for the second pathway using Spitzer/IRAC, 2MASS, and UKIRT imaging and photometry. Although IRE selection of YSOs is well-trodden territory, MYStIX presents unique challenges. The target complexes range from relatively nearby clouds in uncrowded fields located toward the outer Galaxy (e.g., NGC 2264, the Flame Nebula) to more distant, massive complexes situated along complicated, inner Galaxy sightlines (e.g., NGC 6357, M 17). The authors combine IR spectral energy distribution (SED) fitting with IR color cuts and spatial clustering analysis to identify IRE sources and to isolate probable YSO members in each MYStIX target field from the myriad types of contaminating sources that can resemble YSOs: extragalactic sources, evolved stars, nebular knots, and even unassociated foreground/background YSOs. Applying their methodology consistently across 18 of the target complexes, they produce the MYStIX IRE Source (MIRES) Catalog comprising 20,719 sources, including 8,686 probable stellar members of the MYStIX target complexes. They also classify the SEDs of 9,365 IR counterparts to MYStIX X-ray sources to assist the first pathway, the identification of X-ray-detected stellar members. The MYStIX project, described by Feigelson et al. (2013, ApJS, 209, 26), provides a comprehensive, parallel study of 20 Galactic massive star-forming regions. The basic input data for the MIRES Catalog were near-IR (NIR) and mid-IR (MIR) photometric catalogs. The authors also used NIR and MIR images and mosaics for visualizing the point-source populations with respect to various nebular structures. They provide high-level descriptions of each input catalog in section 2 of the reference paper. This table contains the MYStIX IRE Source (MIRES) Catalog comprising IR data on 20,719 sources, including 8,686 probable stellar members of the MYStIX target complexes, viz., massive star-forming regions (MSFRs), which was given in Table 2 of the reference paper. It does not include the IR data of the above-mentioned 9,365 IR counterparts to MYStIX X-ray sources (the SED Classification of IR Counterparts to MYStIX X-ray sources (SCIM-X Catalog) that were listed in Table 7 of the reference paper.

MassiveYoungStar-FormingComplexStudyinIR&X-Rays:Mid-IRSourceCatalogs
공공데이터포털
Spitzer IRAC observations and stellar photometric catalogs are presented for the Massive Young star-forming complex Study in the Infrared and X-ray (MYStIX). MYStIX is a multi-wavelength census of young stellar members of 20 nearby (distances < 4 kpc), Galactic, star-forming regions (SFRs) that contain at least one O-type star. All regions have data available from the Spitzer Space Telescope consisting of GLIMPSE or other published catalogs for 11 regions and results of the authors' own photometric analysis of archival data for the remaining 9 regions. The authors also reduced the GLIMPSE data for the W 3 SFR using the aperture photometry method in order to compare the results obtained using the two methods (see Section 3.4.2 of the reference paper). The reference paper seeks to construct deep and reliable catalogs of sources from the Spitzer images. Mid-infrared study of these regions faces challenges of crowding and high nebulosity. These new catalogs typically contain fainter sources than existing Spitzer studies, which improves the match rate to Chandra X-ray sources that are likely to be young stars, but increases the possibility of spurious point-source detections, especially peaks in the nebulosity. IRAC color-color diagrams help distinguish spurious detections of nebular polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) emission from the infrared excess associated with dusty disks around young stars. The distributions of sources on the mid-infrared color-magnitude and color-color diagrams reflect differences between MYStIX regions, including astrophysical effects such as stellar ages and disk evolution. The GLIMPSE (Galactic Legacy Infrared Mid-Plane Survey Extraordinaire) Survey is a Legacy Science Program of the Spitzer Space Telescope to study star formation in the disk of the Milky Way Galaxy. It contains six MYStIX regions - the Lagoon Nebula, the Trifid Nebula, NGC 6334, the Eagle Nebula, M 17, and NGC 6357 - within the 2-degree wide strip along the Galactic equator (GLIMPSE I and II data releases). Furthermore, Spitzer images and photometry for RCW 38 and NGC 3576 come from the Vela-Carina survey (Majewski et al. 2007, Spitzer Proposal 40791), using a similar observing strategy with mosaicking and photometric analysis as performed with the GLIMPSE pipeline. The authors obtained publicly available raw IRAC images from the Spitzer Heritage Archive for nine MYStIX regions without GLIMPSE coverage. The target list and details of the Astronomical Observation Requests (AORs) are provided in Table 1 of the reference paper. The camera spatial resolutions are FWHM = 1.6" to 1.9" from 3.6 to 8.0um. This table contains the combined IRAC source lists from the GLIMPSE photometry of W 3 and the aperture photometry of the 9 SFRs listed in Table 4, part 1 of the reference paper. This table was created by the HEASARC in February 2014 based on CDS Catalog J/ApJS/209/29 files table2.dat and table3.dat. To distinguish from which table a source originated, the HEASARC has added a parameter called table_number listing the number of the source table, 2 or 3. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .
Star Formation in Nearby Clouds (SFiNCs) X-Ray Source Catalog
공공데이터포털
The Star Formation in Nearby Clouds (SFiNCs) project is aimed at providing a detailed study of the young stellar populations and of star cluster formation in the nearby 22 star-forming regions (SFRs) for comparison with our earlier MYStIX survey of richer, more distant clusters. As a foundation for the SFiNCs science studies, in the reference paper homogeneous data analyses of the Chandra X-ray and Spitzer mid-infrared archival SFiNCs data are described, and the resulting catalogs of over 15,300 X-ray and over 1,630,000 mid-infrared point sources are presented. On the basis of their X-ray/infrared properties and spatial distributions, nearly 8500 point sources have been identified as probable young stellar members of the SFiNCs regions. Compared to the existing X-ray/mid-infrared publications, the SFiNCs member list increases the census of YSO members by 6%-200% for individual SFRs and by 40% for the merged sample of all 22 SFiNCs SFRs. Sixty-five X-ray observations of the 22 SFiNCs SFRs made with the imaging array on the Advanced CCD Imaging Spectrometer (ACIS) were extracted from the Chandra archive (spanning from 2000 January to 2015 April). See Tables 1 and 2 of the reference paper for the list of SFRs and the log of Chandra ACIS observations, respectively. The final Chandra-ACIS catalog for the 22 SFiNCs SFRs comprises 15,364 X-ray sources (presented in Tables 3 and 4 and section 3.2 of the reference paper, and the contents of this HEASARC table, SFINCSXRAY). To obtain MIR photometry for X-ray objects and to identify and measure MIR photometry for additional non-Chandra disky stars that were missed in previous studies of the SFiNCs regions (typically faint YSOs), the authors have reduced the archived Spitzer-IRAC data by homogeneously applying the MYStIX-based Spitzer-IRAC data reduction methods of Kuhn et al. (2013, ApJS, 209, 29) to the 423 Astronomical Object Request (AORs) data sets for the 22 SFiNCs SFRs (Table 5 of the reference paper). As in MYStIX, the SFiNCs IRAC source catalog retains all point sources with the photometric signal-to-noise ratio > 5 in both [3.6] and [4.5] um channels. This catalog covers the 22 SFiNCs SFRs and their vicinities on the sky and comprises 1,638,654 IRAC sources with available photometric measurements for 100%, 100%, 29%, and 23% of these sources in the 3.6, 4.5, 5.8, and 8.0um bands, respectively (see table 6 and section 3.4 of the reference paper). Source position cross-correlations between the SFiNCs Chandra X-ray source catalog and an IR catalog, either the "cut-out" IRAC or 2MASS, were made using the steps described in section 3.5 of the reference paper. Tables 7 and 8 of the reference paper provide the list of 8,492 SFiNCs probable cluster members (SPCMs) and their main IR and X-ray properties (see section 4 of the reference paper): this list as available at the HEASARC as the SFINCSPCM table (q.v.). This table was created by the HEASARC in September 2017 based on the CDS Catalog J/ApJS/229/28 files table3.dat (the list of SFiNCs X-ray sources and their basic properties) and table4.dat (the list of SFiNCs X-ray source fluxes).

Star-Forming Galaxies High-Mass X-Ray Binaries Catalog
공공데이터포털
Based on a homogeneous set of X-ray, infrared and ultraviolet observations from Chandra, Spitzer, GALEX and 2MASS archives, the authors studied populations of high-mass X-ray binaries (HMXBs) in a sample of 29 nearby star-forming galaxies and their relation with the star formation rate (SFR). In agreement with previous results, the authors find that HMXBs are a good tracer of the recent star formation activity in the host galaxy and their collective luminosity and number scale with the SFR, in particular, LX ~ 2.6 x 1039 x SFR. However, the scaling relations still bear a rather large dispersion of rms ~ 0.4 dex, which the authors believe is of a physical origin. This table contains the catalog of 1055 compact X-ray sources detected within the D25 ellipse for galaxies of this sample which the authors used to construct the average X-ray luminosity function (XLF) of HMXBs with substantially improved statistical accuracy and better control of systematic effects than achieved in previous studies. The XLF follows a power law with slope of 1.6 in the log(LX) ~ 35 - 40 luminosity range with a moderately significant evidence for a break or cut-off at LX ~ 1040 erg/s. As before, the authors did not find any features at the Eddington limit for a neutron star or a stellar mass black hole. In their paper, the authors discuss the implications of their results for the theory of binary evolution. In particular, they estimate the fraction of compact objects that once during their lifetime experienced an X-ray active phase powered by accretion from a high mass companion and obtain a rather large number, fX ~ 0.2 x (0.1 Myr/taux), where taux is the life time of the X-ray active phase. This is about 4 orders of magnitude more frequent than in low-mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs). The authors also derive constrains on the mass distribution of the secondary star in HMXBs. Note that, in their paper, the authors estimate that ~ 300 of the 1055 sources are likely to be background AGNs (cosmic X-ray background or CXB sources) and that the majority (<~ 700) of the remaining ~ 750 sources are young HMXB systems associated with star formation in their host galaxies.

Star Formation in Nearby Clouds (SFiNCs) Probable Cluster Members Catalog
공공데이터포털
The Star Formation in Nearby Clouds (SFiNCs) project is aimed at providing a detailed study of the young stellar populations and of star cluster formation in the nearby 22 star-forming regions (SFRs) for comparison with the authors' earlier MYStIX survey of richer, more distant clusters. As a foundation for the SFiNCs science studies, in the reference paper homogeneous data analyses of the Chandra X-ray and Spitzer mid-infrared (MIR) archival SFiNCs data are described, and the resulting catalogs of over 15,300 X-ray and over 1,630,000 mid-infrared point sources are presented. On the basis of their X-ray/infrared properties and spatial distributions, nearly 8500 point sources have been identified as probable young stellar members of the SFiNCs regions. Compared to the existing X-ray/mid-infrared publications, the SFiNCs member list increases the census of YSO members by 6%-200% for individual SFRs and by 40% for the merged sample of all 22 SFiNCs SFRs. Sixty-five X-ray observations of the 22 SFiNCs SFRs made with the imaging array on the Advanced CCD Imaging Spectrometer (ACIS) were extracted from the Chandra archive (spanning from 2000 January to 2015 April). See Tables 1 and 2 of the reference paper for the list of SFRs and the log of Chandra ACIS observations, respectively. The final Chandra-ACIS catalog for the 22 SFiNCs SFRs comprises 15,364 X-ray sources (presented in Tables 3 and 4 and section 3.2 of the reference paper, and available as the HEASARC table, SFINCSXRAY). To obtain MIR photometry for X-ray objects and to identify and measure MIR photometry for additional non-Chandra disky stars that were missed in previous studies of the SFiNCs regions (typically faint YSOs), the authors have reduced the archived Spitzer-IRAC data by homogeneously applying the MYStIX-based Spitzer-IRAC data reduction methods of Kuhn et al. (2013, ApJS, 209, 29) to the 423 Astronomical Object Request (AORs) data sets for the 22 SFiNCs SFRs (listed in Table 5 of the reference paper). As in MYStIX, the SFiNCs IRAC source catalog retains all point sources with the photometric signal-to-noise ratio > 5 in both [3.6] and [4.5] um channels. This catalog covers the 22 SFiNCs SFRs and their vicinities on the sky and comprises 1,638,654 IRAC sources with available photometric measurements for 100%, 100%, 29%, and 23% of these sources in the 3.6, 4.5, 5.8, and 8.0um bands, respectively (see table 6 and section 3.4 of the reference paper). Source position cross-correlations between the SFiNCs Chandra X-ray source catalog and an IR catalog, either the "cut-out" IRAC or 2MASS, were made using the steps described in section 3.5 of the reference paper. Using the ensemble of X-ray and infrared data that they have obtained, the authors selected probable YSOs in the 22 SFRs using selection criteria described in section 4.1 of the reference paper. Tables 7 and 8 of the reference paper provide the list of 8,492 SFiNCs probable cluster members (SPCMs: but see below for a caveat on this number) and their main IR and X-ray properties (see section 4 of the reference paper). This present HEASARC table comprises the contents of these two tables. A fuller list of the X-ray properties of the X-ray-detected SPCMs is available in the HEASARC's SFINCSXRAY table (q.v.). This table was created by the HEASARC in September 2017 based on the CDS Catalog J/ApJS/229/28 files table7.dat (the IR photometry of the SFiNCs probable cluster members) and table8.dat (the main X-ray and other properties of the SFiNCs probable cluster members).

W 40 Star-Forming Region Chandra X-Ray Point Source Catalog
공공데이터포털
The young stellar cluster illuminating the W40 H II region, one of the nearest massive star-forming regions (SFRs), has been observed with the ACIS detector on board the Chandra X-ray Observatory. Due to its high obscuration, this is a poorly studied stellar cluster with only a handful of bright stars visible in the optical band, including three OB stars identified as primary excitation sources. The authors detect 225 X-ray sources, of which 85% are confidently identified as young stellar members of the region. Two potential distances of the cluster, 260 pc and 600 pc, are used in the paper. Supposing the X-ray luminosity function of SFRs to be universal, it supports a 600 pc distance as a lower limit for W40 and a total population of at least 600 stars down to 0.1 Msun under the assumption of a coeval population with a uniform obscuration. In fact, there is strong spatial variation in Ks-band-excess disk fraction and non-uniform obscuration due to a dust lane that is identified in absorption in optical, infrared, and X-ray. The dust lane is likely part of a ring of material which includes the molecular core within W40. In contrast to the likely ongoing star formation in the dust lane, the molecular core is inactive. The star cluster has a spherical morphology, an isothermal sphere density profile, and mass segregation down to 1.5 Msun. However, other cluster properties, including a <= 1 Myr age estimate and ongoing star formation, indicate that the cluster is not dynamically relaxed. X-ray diffuse emission and a powerful flare from a young stellar object are also reported in the reference paper. This table was created by the HEASARC in March 2011 based on electronic versions of Tables, 1, 2 and 4 of the reference paper which were obtained from the ApJ web site.

Massive Star-Forming Regions Omnibus X-Ray Catalog
공공데이터포털
This table contains the Massive Star-forming Regions (MSFRs) Omnibus X-ray Catalog (MOXC), a compendium of X-ray point sources from Chandra/ACIS observations of a selection of MSFRs across the Galaxy, plus 30 Doradus in the Large Magellanic Cloud. MOXC consists of 20,623 X-ray point sources from 12 MSFRs with distances ranging from 1.7 kpc to 50 kpc, and comprises Table 3 of the reference paper. In their paper, the authors show the morphology of the unresolved X-ray emission that remains after the cataloged X-ray point sources are excised from the ACIS data, in the context of Spitzer and WISE observations that trace the bubbles, ionization fronts, and photon-dominated regions that characterize MSFRs. In previous work, they have found that this unresolved X-ray emission is dominated by hot plasma from massive star wind shocks. This diffuse X-ray emission is found in every MOXC MSFR, clearly demonstrating that massive star feedback (and the several-million-degree plasmas that it generates) is an integral component of MSFR physics. The Chandra observations used for the Massive Star-forming Regions Omnibus X-ray Catalog (MOXC) are summarized in Table 2 of the reference paper and have dates ranging from 2000-04-03 to 2013-01-31 for the 12 MSFRs: the 7 MYStIX targets NGC 6334, NGC 6357, M 16, M 17, W 3, W 4 and NGC 3576, and the 5 "beyond-MYStIX" targets G333.6-0.2, W 51A, G29.96-0.02, NGC 3603 and 30 Doradus. A similar table to MOXC for other MYStIX targets was presented by Kuhn et al. (2013, ApJS, 209, 27, available as the HEASARC MYSTIXXRAY table). The main difference between that table and the MOXC version is that the present authors have chosen to omit absorption-corrected X-ray source luminosities from the XPHOT algorithm (Getman et al. 2010, ApJ, 708, 1760) herein, because those quantities are given in Broos et al. (2013, ApJS, 209, 32, available as the HEASARC MYSTIXMPCM table) for relevant MYStIX X-ray sources (those classified as pre-main sequence stars). For beyond-MYStIX targets, the authors chose to postpone XPHOT calculations until the X-ray sources were classified, since XPHOT estimates are only appropriate for pre-MS stars. The XPHOT code is available (Getman et al. 2012, Astrophysics Source Code Library, record ascl.soft12002) if others wish to use it on MOXC sources. All photometric quantities in this table are apparent (not corrected for absorption). The HEASARC has used prefixes 'fb_', 'sb_' and 'hb_' (replacing the suffixes '_t', '_s' and '_h' used in the reference paper) on the names of the X-ray photometric quantities which designate the full (total, 0.5 - 8 keV), soft (0.5 - 2.0 keV) and hard (2-8 keV) energy bands. Correction for finite extraction apertures is applied to the ancillary reference file (ARF) calibration products (see Broos et al. 2010, ApJ, 714, 1582, Section 5.3); the total_counts and counts quantities characterize the extraction and are not aperture-corrected. The only calibrated quantities presented are the apparent photon fluxes, in units of photon cm-2 s-1 (see Broos et al. 2010, ApJ, 714, 1582, Section 7.4), and estimates for the apparent energy fluxes, in units of erg cm-2 s-1 (Getman et al. 2010, ApJ, 708, 1760). This table was created by the HEASARC in October 2014 based on CDS Catalog J/ApJS/213/1 files table3.dat (the MOXC X-ray Source Catalog) and table6.dat (the list of MOXC sources in previously published Chandra catalogs).

NGC 2264 Chandra X-Ray Point Source Catalog 2
공공데이터포털
With the goal of improving the member census of the NGC 2264 star-forming region and studying the origin of X-ray activity in young pre-main sequence (PMS) stars, the authors analyzed a deep, 100 ks long, Chandra ACIS observation covering a 17' x 17' field in the 3 Myr old star-forming region (SFR) NGC 2264. The preferential detection in X-rays of low-mass PMS stars gives strong indications of their membership. The authors study X-ray activity as a function of stellar and circumstellar characteristics by correlating the X-ray luminosities, temperatures, and absorptions with optical and near-infrared (NIR) data from the literature. The authors detected 420 X-ray point sources in the observation above a 4.6-sigma significance threshold using the PWDetect software. Optical and NIR counterparts were found in the literature for 85% of the sources. The authors argue that more than 90% of these counterparts are NGC 2264 members, thereby significantly increasing the known low-mass cluster population by about 100 objects. Among the sources without counterpart, about 50% are probably associated with members, several of which are expected to be previously unknown protostellar objects. With regard to activity, several previous findings are confirmed: X-ray luminosity is related to stellar mass, although with a large scatter; Lx/Lbol is close to, but almost invariably below, the saturation level of 10-3, especially when considering the quiescent X-ray emission. A comparison between classical T Tauri stars (CTTS) and weak-line T Tauri stars (WTTS) shows several differences: CTTS have, at any given mass, activity levels that are both lower and more scattered than WTTS; emission from CTTS may also be more time variable and is on average slightly harder than for WTTS. However, there is evidence in some CTTS of extremely cool, ~0.1 - 0.2 keV, plasma which the authors speculate is due to plasma heated by accretion shocks. The X-ray spectra of the 199 sources with more than 50 detected photons were analyzed by the authors. Spectral fits were performed with XSPEC 11.3 and with several shell and TCL scripts to automate the process. For each source, they fit the data in the [0.5 - 7.0] keV energy interval with several model spectra: one and two isothermal components (APEC), subject to photoelectric absorption from interstellar and circumstellar material (WABS). Plasma abundances for one-temperature (1T) models were fixed at 0.3 times the solar abundances, while they were both fixed at that value and treated as a free parameter for the two-temperature (2T) models. The absorbing column densities, NH, were both left as a free parameter and fixed at values corresponding to the optically/NIR determined extinctions, when available: NH = 1.6 x 1021 AV. This table contains the X-ray, optical and NIR data for the 420 detected X-ray sources; it does not contain the master catalog of 1598 optical/NIR sources within the ACIS FOV which was presented in Table 3 of the reference paper, available at https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/J/A+A/455/903/table3.dat This table was created by the HEASARC in March 2007 based on CDS Catalog J/A+A/455/903 files table1.dat, table4.dat and table6.dat.

IC 2944/2948 XMM-Newton X-Ray Source Catalog
공공데이터포털
Using XMM-Newton data, the authors have studied for the first time the X-ray emission of the young star clusters HM1 and IC 2944/2948. Low-mass, pre-main sequence objects with an age of a few Myr are detected, as well as a few background or foreground objects. Most massive stars in both clusters display the usual high-energy properties of that kind of objects, though with log(Lx/Lbol) apparently lower in HM1 than in IC 2944/2948. Comparing with studies of other clusters, it seems that low S/N at soft energies, due to the high extinction, may the main cause of this difference. In HM1, the two Wolf-Rayet stars show contrasting behaviors: WR89 is extremely bright, but much softer than WR87. It remains to be seen whether wind-wind collisions or magnetically confined winds can explain such emissions. In IC 2944/2948, the X-ray sources concentrate around HD 101205; a group of massive stars to the north of this object appears rather isolated, suggesting that there exist two sub-clusters in the field of view. This tables provides the list of 368 detected X-ray sources in/toward the Cen OB2 association cluster(s) IC 2944/2948 only, i.e., the 58 X-ray sources detected in/toward the HM1 cluster are not contained herein. This tables lists the basic X-ray source properties (position, count rates, hardness ratios) and their probable optical/infrared counterparts (offset angular distance, name). XMM-Newton has observed IC 2944/2948 for 40 ks on XMM-Newton Rev. 2209 (with the THICK filter). No background flare affected the observation, and no source is bright enough to suffer from pile-up. This table was created by the HEASARC in September 2013 based on CDS Catalog J/A+A/555/A83 files table3.dat and table4.dat. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .
