RCW 49 Chandra X-Ray Point Source Catalog
This table contains the list of X-ray sources detected in a high-resolution X-ray imaging study of the stellar population in the Galactic massive star-forming region RCW 49 and its central OB association Westerlund 2. The authors obtained a ~ 40 ks X-ray image of a ~ 17' x 17' field using the Chandra X-Ray Observatory and deep NIR images using the Infrared Survey Facility in a concentric ~ 8.3' x 8.3' region. They detected 468 X-ray sources with a photometric significance >=1.0 and a 1% or less chance of being a background fluctuation, and identified optical, near-infrared (NIR), and Spitzer mid-infrared (MIR) counterparts for 379 of them. The unprecedented spatial resolution and sensitivity of the X-ray image, enhanced by optical and infrared imaging data, yielded the following results: (1) The central OB association Westerlund 2 is resolved for the first time in the X-ray band. X-ray emission is detected from all spectroscopically identified early-type stars in this region. (2) Most (~ 86%) X-ray sources with optical or infrared identifications are cluster members in comparison with a control field in the Galactic plane. (3) A loose constraint (2-5 kpc) for the distance to RCW 49 is derived from the mean X-ray luminosity of T Tauri stars. (4) The cluster X-ray population consists of low-mass pre-main-sequence and early-type stars as obtained from X-ray and NIR photometry. About 30 new OB star candidates are identified. (5) The authors estimate a cluster radius of 6' - 7' based on the X-ray surface number density profiles. (6) A large fraction (~ 90%) of cluster members are identified individually using complimentary X-ray and MIR excess emission. (7) The brightest five X-ray sources, two Wolf-Rayet stars and three O stars, have hard thermal spectra. The X-ray observation of RCW 49 was carried out using the Advanced CCD Imaging Spectrometer (ACIS) on board the Chandra X-Ray Observatory from 2003 August 23 UT 18:20 to August 24 UT 4:54. Four imaging array (ACIS-I) chips covered a 17 by 17 arcminutes field centered at (R.A., Dec.) = (10h24m00.5s, -57d 45' 18") in the equinox J2000.0 for a 36.7 ks exposure. ACIS-I covers the 0.5 - 8.0 keV energy band with a spectral resolution of ~ 150 eV at 6 keV and a point-spread function (PSF) radius of ~ 0.5" within ~ 2' of the on-axis position, degrading to ~ 6" at a 10' off-axis angle. The data were taken with the very faint telemetry mode and the timed exposure CCD operation with a frame time of 3.2 s. Sources with photometric significance of larger than 2 were fitted with an absorbed thin thermal plasma model. The abundance was fixed to be 0.3 times the solar value. Fits lacking uncertainties, fits with large uncertainties, and fits with frozen parameters should be viewed merely as splines to the data to obtain rough estimates of the X-ray luminosities: the listed parameter values are considered unreliable in such cases. The authors also conducted NIR observations on 2004 December 25 and 28 using the Simultaneous three-color Infrared Imager for Unbiased Surveys (SIRIUS) mounted on the Cassegrain focus of the IRSF 1.4 m telescope at the South African Astronomical Observatory. SIRIUS is a NIR imager capable of obtaining simultaneous images in the J, H, and K<sub>s</sub> bands. The instrument is equipped with three HAWAII arrays of 1024 by 1024 pixels. The pixel scale of 0.45" is an excellent match with the on-axis spatial resolution of Chandra. The authors covered 8.3 by 8.3 arcminute fields at two positions, one aimed at RCW 49 (10h24m01.9s, -57d 45' 31") and the other at a control region. This table was created by the HEASARC in October 2007 based on the versions of Tables 1, 2, and 3 from the paper which were obtained from the electronic ApJ website.

RCW 38 Chandra X-Ray Point Source Catalog 2
공공데이터포털
This table contains some of the results from a study of the structure of the high-mass star-forming region RCW 38 and the spatial distribution of its young stellar population. Spitzer Infrared Array Camera (IRAC) photometry (3-8 micron) is combined with Two Micron All Sky Survey (2MASS) near-IR data to identify young stellar objects (YSOs) by IR-excess emission from their circumstellar material. Chandra X-ray data are used to identify class III pre-main-sequence stars lacking circumstellar material. The authors identify 624 YSOs: 23 class 0/I and 90 flat spectrum (FS) protostars, 437 class II stars, and 74 class III stars. They also identify 29 (27 new) O star candidates over the IRAC field. Seventy-two stars exhibit IR-variability, including 7 class 0/I and 12 flat spectrum YSOs. A further 177 tentative candidates are identified by their location in the IRAC [3.6] versus [3.6]-[5.8] color-magnitude diagram. The authors find strong evidence of subclustering in the region. Three subclusters were identified surrounding the central cluster, with massive and variable stars in each subcluster. The central region shows evidence of distinct spatial distributions of the protostars and pre-main-sequence stars. A previously detected IR cluster, DB2001_Obj36, has been established as a subcluster of RCW 38. This suggests that star formation in RCW 38 occurs over a more extended area than previously thought. The gas-to-dust ratio is examined using the X-ray derived hydrogen column density, NH and the K-band extinction, and found to be consistent with the diffuse interstellar medium, in contrast with Serpens and NGC 1333. The authors posit that the high photoionizing flux of massive stars in RCW 38 affects the agglomeration of the dust grains. This table contains the list of 536 X-ray sources found in the Chandra data using a three-pass method with the CIAO 3.4 Wavdetect tool. This table was created by the HEASARC in January 2012 based on an electronic version of Table 2 from the reference paper which was obtained from the ApJ website. 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 .
NGC 2244/Rosette Nebula Chandra X-Ray Point Source Catalog
공공데이터포털
This table contains the point source catalog based on the first high spatial resolution X-ray study of NGC 2244, the 2 Myr old stellar cluster in the Rosette Nebula, using Chandra. Over 900 X-ray sources are detected within 20 arcminutes of the cluster central position (J2000.0 RA and Dec of 6 31 59.9, +4 55 36); 77% of these X-ray sources have optical or FLAMINGOS NIR stellar counterparts and are mostly previously uncataloged young cluster members. The X-ray-selected population is estimated to be nearly complete between 0.5 and 3 Msolar. A number of further results emerge from the analysis: (1) The X-ray luminosity function (XLF) and the associated K-band LF indicate a normal Salpeter IMF for NGC 2244. This is inconsistent with the top-heavy IMF reported from earlier optical studies that lacked a good census of < 4 Msolar stars. By comparing the NGC 2244 and Orion Nebula Cluster XLFs, the authors estimate a total population of ~2000 stars in NGC 2244. (2) The spatial distribution of X-ray stars is strongly concentrated around the central O5 star, HD 46150. The other early O star, HD 46223, has few companions. The cluster's stellar radial density profile shows two distinctive structures: a power-law cusp around HD 46150 that extends to ~0.7 pc, surrounded by an isothermal sphere extending out to 4 pc with core radius 1.2 pc. This double structure, combined with the absence of mass segregation, indicates that this 2 Myr old cluster is not in dynamical equilibrium. (3) The fraction of X-ray-selected cluster members with K-band excesses caused by inner protoplanetary disks is 6%, slightly lower than the 10% disk fraction estimated from the FLAMINGOS study based on the NIR-selected sample. (4) X-ray luminosities for 24 stars earlier than B4 confirm the long-standing log (LX/Lbol) ~ -7 relation. The Rosette OB X-ray spectra are soft and consistent with the standard model of small-scale shocks in the inner wind of a single massive star.

Galactic Center Chandra X-Ray Point Source Catalog
공공데이터포털
This table contains a catalog of 9017 X-ray sources identified in Chandra observations of a 2 degrees by 0.8 degrees field around the Galactic center. This enlarges the number of known X-ray sources in the region by a factor of 2.5. The catalog incorporates all of the ACIS-I observations as of 2007 August, which total 2.25 Ms of exposure. At the distance to the Galactic center (8 kpc), we are sensitive to sources with luminosities of 4 x 1032 erg s-1 (0.5-8.0 keV; 90% confidence) over an area of 1 degree2, and up to an order of magnitude more sensitive in the deepest exposure (1.0 Ms) around Sgr A*. The positions of 60% of the sources are accurate to <1 arcsecond (95% confidence), and 20% have positions accurate to <0.5 arcsec. The authors search for variable sources, and find that 3% exhibit flux variations within an observation, and 10% exhibit variations from observation-to-observation. They also find one source, CXOUGC J174622.7-285218, with a periodic 1745 s signal (1.4% chance probability), which is probably a magnetically accreting cataclysmic variable. The authors compare the spatial distribution of X-ray sources to a model for the stellar distribution, and find 2.8 sigma evidence for excesses in the numbers of X-ray sources in the region of recent star formation encompassed by the Arches, Quintuplet, and Galactic center star clusters. These excess sources are also seen in the luminosity distribution of the X-ray sources, which is flatter near the Arches and Quintuplet than elsewhere in the field. These excess point sources, along with a similar longitudinal asymmetry in the distribution of diffuse iron emission that has been reported by other authors, probably have their origin in the young stars that are prominent at a galactic lonitude ~ 0.1 degrees. This tables was designed to be inclusive, so sources of questionable quality are included, according to the authors. For instance, 134 sources have net numbers of counts in the 0.5-8.0 keV band that are consistent with 0 at the 90% confidence level. These sources are only detected in a single band and are presumably either very hard or very soft, detected in single observations because they were transients, or detected in stacked observations with wvdecomp at marginal significance. The authors have chosen to include them because they passed the test based on Poisson statistics from Weisskopf et al. (2007, ApJ, 657, 1026). The observations which were used to generate the source list herein tabulated are listed in Table 1 of the reference paper. This HEASARC table GALCENCXO supercedes and replaces the previous HEASARC tables CHANGALCEN and CHANC150PC, which were based on Muno et al. (2003, ApJ, 589, 225) and Muno et al. (2006, ApJS, 165, 173), respectively. This table was created by the HEASARC in March 2009 based on the machine-readable versions of Table 2, 3 and 4 from the paper which were obtained from the electronic ApJ website. The information on short-term variability given in Table 5 of the reference paper was not included in this HEASARC table, notice. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .
RCW 108 Star Formation Region Chandra X-Ray Point Source Catalog
공공데이터포털
This table contains some of the results of an approximately 90 ks Chandra observation of a complex region that hosts multiple sites of recent and active star formation in ARA OB1a. The field is centered on the embedded cluster RCW 108-IR and includes a large portion of the open cluster NGC 6193. The authors detected over 420 X-ray sources in the field and combined these data with deep near-IR, Spitzer/IRAC and Midcourse Space Experiment (MSX) mid-IR data. They find that about 360 of the X-ray sources have near-IR counterparts. They divide the region into five parts based on the X-ray point source characteristics and extended 8 micron emission. The most clearly defined regions are the central region, identified by embedded sources with high luminosities in the both the near-IR and X-ray as well as high X-ray temperatures (~3 keV), and the eastern region, identified by low extinction and ~1 keV X-ray temperatures. Other regions, identified by their directional relationship to RCW 108-IR, are less uniform, representing combinations of the first two regions, independent star formation epochs, or both. The cluster members range in X-ray luminosity from 1029 to 1033 erg s-1. Over 18% of the cluster members with over 100 counts exhibit flares. All sources with over 350 counts are variable. Overall about 10% (16% in RCW 108-IR) appear to have optically thick disks as derived from their position in the (J - H), (H - K) diagram. The disk fraction becomes much higher when IRAC data are employed. The largest fraction of X-ray sources is best described as possessing some disk material via a more detailed extinction fitting. The authors fit the bulk of the X-ray spectra as absorbed Raymond-Smith-type plasmas, and find that the column to the RCW 108-IR members varies from 1021 to 1023 cm-2. They find that the field contains 41 candidate O or B stars, and estimate that the total number of pre-main-sequence stars in the field is about 1600 +/- 200. Approximately 800 are confined to the 3' (~1.1 pc) central region. The field was observed by Chandra on 2004 October 25 starting at 02:37 UT for 92.2 ks of total time and 88.8 ks of so-called "good-time" (ObsId 4503). The ACIS was used in the nominal imaging array (chips I0-I3) which provides a field of view of approximately 17' by 17' (~6.5 pc on a side). The aimpoint was at RA, Dec = 16:39:58.7, -48:51:54.4 (J2000.0). In addition, the S2 and S3 chips were on and located over IRAS 16379-4856. About 20 point sources were detected associated with this object; however, the analysis of these data is not presented here because they are far off-axis. This table was created by the HEASARC in June 2008 based on electronic versions of Tables 1, 2, 5, 7, 10 and 11 from the reference paper which were obtained from the Astronomical Journal web site.

NGC 2237 Chandra X-Ray Point Source Catalog
공공데이터포털
The authors have obtained high spatial resolution Chandra X-ray images of the NGC 2237 young stellar cluster on the periphery of the Rosette Nebula. They detect 168 X-ray sources, 80% of which have stellar counterparts in USNO, Two Micron All Sky Survey, and deep FLAMINGOS images. These constitute the first census of the cluster members with 0.2 <~ M <~ 2 Msun. Star locations in near-infrared color-magnitude diagrams indicate a cluster age of around 2 Myr with a visual extinction of 1 <~ AV <~ 3 at 1.4 kpc, the distance of the Rosette Nebula's main cluster NGC 2244. The authors derive the K-band luminosity function and the X-ray luminosity function of the cluster, which indicate a population of ~ 400-600 stars. The X-ray-selected sample shows a K-excess disk frequency of 13%. The young Class II counterparts are aligned in an arc ~3 pc long suggestive of a triggered formation process induced by the O stars in NGC 2244. The diskless Class III sources are more dispersed. Several X-ray emitting stars are located inside the molecular cloud and around gaseous pillars projecting from the cloud. These stars, together with a previously unreported optical outflow originating inside the cloud, indicate that star formation is continuing at a low level and the cluster is still growing. This X-ray view of young stars on the western side of the Rosette Nebula complements the authors' earlier studies of the central cluster NGC 2244 and the embedded clusters on the eastern side of the Nebula. The large-scale distribution of the clusters and molecular material is consistent with a scenario in which the rich central NGC 2244 cluster formed first, and its expanding H II region triggered the formation of the now-unobscured satellite clusters Rosette Molecular Cloud (RMC) XA and NGC 2237. A large swept-up shell of material around the H II region is now in a second phase of collect-and-collapse fragmentation, leading to the recent formation of subclusters. Other clusters deeper in the molecular cloud appear unaffected by the Rosette Nebula expansion. Some sources which have information from published catalogs are listed by their source_number value below, where for convenience, [OI81] = Ogura & Ishida (1981, PASJ, 33, 149), [MJD95] = Massey, Johnson, & Degioia-Eastwood (1995, ApJ, 454, 151) and [BC02] = Berghofer & Christian (2002, A&A, 384, 890):

This table was created by the HEASARC in July 2010 based on electronic versions of Tables 1, 2, 3 and 4 of the reference paper which were obtained from the electronic ApJ web site. To distinguish between the 130 X-ray sources in the primary sample (Table 1 of the reference paper) and the 38 X-ray sources in the tentative sample (Table 2 of the reference paper), the HEASARC has created a parameter called source_sample which is set to 'P' for the primary sources and to 'T' for the tentative sources.

M 17 Chandra X-Ray Point Source Catalog
공공데이터포털
This table contains some of the results from a Chandra ACIS observation of the stellar populations in and around the M17 H II region. The field reveals 886 sources (listed in the present table) with observed X-ray luminosities (uncorrected for absorption) between ~ 29.3 erg s-1 < log LX < 32.8 erg s-1, 771 of which have stellar counterparts in infrared images. Spectral analysis results for the 598 brightest X-ray sources which have photometric significance of 2.0 or greater) are also given herein. For 546 of the X-ray sources, the fits used the "wabs(apec)" thermal plasma model in XSPEC assuming scaled 0.3 times solar photospheric abundances, while for the other 52 X-ray sources for which either the thermal model poorly described the data or required nonphysical parameters and the X-ray source was not identified with a known stellar counterpart, the fits used the "wabs(powerlaw)" model in XSPEC. In addition to the comprehensive tabulation of X-ray source properties, several other results were presented in the reference paper: 1. The X-ray luminosity function is calibrated to that of the Orion Nebula Cluster population to infer a total population of roughly 8000-10,000 stars in M17, one-third lying in the central NGC 6618 cluster. 2. About 40% of the ACIS sources are heavily obscured with AV > 10 mag. Some are concentrated around well-studied star-forming regions -- IRS 5/UC1, the Kleinmann-Wright Object, and M17-North -- but most are distributed across the field. As previously shown, star formation appears to be widely distributed in the molecular clouds. X-ray emission is detected from 64 of the hundreds of Class I protostar candidates that can be identified by near- and mid-infrared colors. These constitute the most likely protostar candidates known in M17. 3. The spatial distribution of X-ray stars is complex: in addition to the central NGC 6618 cluster and well-known embedded groups, we find a new embedded cluster (designated M17-X), a 2 pc long arc of young stars along the southwest edge of the M17 H II region, and 0.1 pc substructure within various populations. These structures may indicate that the populations are dynamically young. 4. All (14/14) of the known O stars but only about half (19/34) of the known B0-B3 stars in the M17 field are detected. These stars exhibit the long-reported correlation between X-ray and bolometric luminosities of LX ~ 10-7 Lbol. While many O and early-B stars show the soft X-ray emission expected from microshocks in their winds or moderately hard emission that could be caused by magnetically channeled wind shocks, six of these stars exhibit very hard thermal plasma components (kT > 4 keV) that may be due to colliding wind binaries. More than 100 candidate new OB stars are found, including 28 X-ray detected intermediate- and high-mass protostar candidates with infrared excesses. 5. Only a small fraction (perhaps 10%) of X-ray selected high- and intermediate-mass stars exhibit K-band-emitting protoplanetary disks, providing further evidence that inner disks evolve very rapidly around more massive stars.

IRAS 20126+4104 Chandra X-Ray Point Source Catalog
공공데이터포털
This table contains results from Chandra ACIS-I and Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array 6-cm continuum observations of the IRAS 20126+4104 massive star-forming region. The authors detect 150 X-ray sources within the 17' x 17' ACIS-I field, and a total of 13 radio sources within the 9.2' primary JVLA beam at 4.9 GHz. Among these observations are the first 6-cm detections of the central sources reported by Hofner et al. (2007, A&A, 465, 197), namely, I20N1, I20S, and I20var. A new variable radio source is also reported in Section 3.2 of the reference paper, [MHA2015] VLA G78.1907+3.364. Searching the 2MASS archive, the authors identified 88 near-infrared (NIR) counterparts to the X-ray sources. Only four of the X-ray sources had 6-cm counterparts. Based on an NIR color-color analysis and on the Besancon simulation of Galactic stellar populations, the authors estimate that approximately 80 X-ray sources are associated with this massive star-forming region. They detect an increasing surface density of X-ray sources toward the massive protostar IRAS 20126+4104 and infer the presence of a cluster of at least 43 young stellar objects within a distance of 1.2 pc from this protostar. The authors observed the IRAS 20126+4104 region with the Chandra ACIS-I instrument on 2003 March 17 for a total exposure time of 39.35 ks. C-band (6 cm) continuum observations of the massive star-forming region IRAS 20126+4104 were conducted with the VLA operated by NRAO on 2011 August 7. These X-ray and radio data are augmented by NIR and optical archival data. For the Mid-IR wavelength regions, the authors searched the Spitzer Enhanced Imaging Products Point Source catalog.

NGC 4649 Chandra X-Ray Point Source Catalog 2
공공데이터포털
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..

RCW 38 Chandra X-Ray Point Source Catalog
공공데이터포털
This table contains the results of a 96.7-ks Chandra observation of one of the youngest, most embedded, and most massive young stellar clusters studied to this date in X-rays, namely the embedded young cluster, RCW 38. 460 X-ray sources were detected in the field, of which 360 are confirmed to be associated with the RCW 38 cluster. The cluster members range in luminosity from 1030 to 1033.5 erg/s. Over 10% of the cluster members with over 100 counts were found to exhibit flares, while about 15% of the cluster members with over 30 counts were variable. Of the sources identified as cluster members, 160 have near-infrared (NIR) counterparts either in the Two Micron All Sky Survey (2MASS) database or which were detected via Very Large Telescope observations. Of these, about 20% appear to have optically thick disks. An additional 353 cluster members were identified through NIR observations, of which at least 50% possess optically thick disks. Over 100 X-ray sources were fit as absorbed Raymond-Smith-type plasmas and the authors found that the column to the cluster members varies from 1021.5 to 1023 cm-2. Comparing the gas to dust absorption signatures in these stars they found NH = AV (2 x 1021) cm-2. They also found that the cluster contains 31 candidate OB stars and is centered about 10" (0.1 pc) west of the primary source of its ionization, the O5 star IRS 2. The cluster has a peak central density of about 400 X-ray sources pc-2. The authors estimate that the total cluster membership exceeds 2000 stars. The Chandra observation of RCW 38 took place on 2001 December 10-11 and lasted 96.7 ks. It used Advanced CCD Imaging Spectrometer (ACIS) chips 0, 1, 2, 3, 6 and 7 in very faint mode. The combined field of view (FOV) of the 4 chips in the imaging array (0-3, ACIS-I) is 16.9' x 16.9'. The aimpoint of the array was 8 59 19.20, -47 30 22.0 (J2000.0), and Chandra's roll angle was 51 degrees. The source detection algorithm PWDetect was run on the cleaned events list across the entire ACIS-I array, and found 460 sources, including 31 sources with more than 200 net counts, 49 sources with 100-200 net counts, 71 sources with 50-100 net counts, and 78 sources with 20-50 net counts. NIR matches were found for 349 of the 460 X-ray sources, including 294 of the 360 cluster members and 55 of the 100 nonmembers. This table was created by the HEASARC in February 2007 based on the merger of Tables 1, 10 and 11 from the reference paper which were obtained from the AJ website. It does not include the results from either the quartile analysis of the sources which were presented in Tables 2 and 3 or of the spectral analysis of some of the sources which were presented in Tables 5 through 9 of the reference paper.

NGC 2808 Chandra X-Ray Point Source Catalog
공공데이터포털
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. This table was created by the HEASARC in February 2009 based on the electronic version of Table 1 from the paper which was obtained from the CDS (their catalog J/A+A/490/641 file table1.dat).
