This database table contains 105 "discrete" (i.e., more compact than 1.25 arcminutes) and 9 "large-diameter" (detected using a detection circle radius of 2 arcminutes) Einstein IPC X-ray sources in the direction of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) that are tabulated in Tables 2 and 4, respectively, of Wang et al. (1991, ApJ, 374, 475). For full details of the data processing and selection used to create this source catalog, the above reference should be consulted. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .

This table contains the results of a pair of 100 ks Chandra observations of the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) to survey high-mass X-ray binaries (HMXBs), stars, and low-mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs)/cataclysmic variables down to L_X = 4.3 x 10³² erg s^-1. The two SMC Deep Fields (DFs) are located in the most active star-forming region of the SMC bar, with Deep Field-1 positioned at the most pulsar-rich location identified from previous surveys. Two new pulsars were discovered in outburst, CXOU J004929.7-731058 (P = 892 s) and CXOU J005252.2-721715 (P = 326 s), and three new HMXB candidates were identified. Of the 15 Be-pulsars now known in the field, 13 were detected, with pulsations seen in 9 of them. Ephemerides demonstrate that 6 of the 10 pulsars known to exhibit regular outbursts were seen outside their periastron phase, and quiescent X-ray emission at L_X = 10^(33-34) erg s^-1 is shown to be common. Comparison with ROSAT, ASCA, and XMM-Newton catalogs resulted in positive identification of several previously ambiguous sources. Bright optical counterparts exist for 40 of the X-ray sources, of which 33 are consistent with early-type stars (M_V < -2, B-V < 0.2), and are the subject of a companion paper to the reference paper. The results point to an underlying HMXB population density up to double that of active systems. The full catalog of 394 point sources is presented in this table; detailed analyses of the source timing and spectral properties are available in the reference paper. The aim-points for these Chandra observations were as follows: DF1 had J2000.0 coordinates of 00 53 34.50 -72 26 43.2 and DF2 had J2000.0 coordinates of 00 50 41.40 -73 16 10.3. This table was created by the HEASARC in August 2010 based on the electronic version of Table 2 from the reference paper which was obtained from the ApJ web site.

The X-ray sources from observations made with the Einstein Observatory (HEAO-2) Imaging Proportional Counter (IPC) that have intensities of 2-sigma or more above the background are compiled in this catalog. This catalog covers more sky at fainter flux levels than the Einstein Medium Sensitivity Survey. Fields with diffuse emission sources such as bright Abell clusters of galaxies and supernova remnants were excluded. Thus, data within 10 degrees of the galactic plane as well as fields within the boundaries of the Magellanic Clouds were excluded. Regions crowded with galactic sources such as the Orion and Pleiades fiels were also excluded. Excluding redundant fields, this catalog covers 1850 sq. degrees of the sky. The generation of the Einstein Two-Sigma Catalog was described in detail by Moran et al. (1996). Please read this article carefully to ensure responsible use of the Catalog. Detailed scientific and technical questions on the contents and methodology of this catalog should be addressed to the first author, Ed Moran (edhed@igpp.llnl.gov). In particular, it should be noted that, by design, this catalog contains a significant number of spurious sources: only 28%, or about 13,000 sources, out of the 46,000 source in the 2-sigma catalog are `real` astrophysical sources, with the remainder of the sources being spurious ones. Moran et al. show in their paper that performing cross-correlations of 2-sigma sources with other catalogs is an effective way of selecting sources in this catalog that are probably real.

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:

Notes. The pointing OBSID 7181 was taken before OBSID 7080, so to maintain the time sequence of the exposures these observation numbers have been labeled as above in the reference paper. The details of the energy bands and X-ray colors used in this study are given in Table 2 of the reference paper, and repeated here:
