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 L_X < 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 A_V > 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 L_X ~ 10^-7 L_bol. 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.

The Chandra X-Ray Point Source Catalog of the giant elliptical galaxy NGC 4472 contains the results of a Chandra ACIS-S/Hubble Space Telescope (HST) study of the point sources of this Virgo Cluster galaxy. The authors ran WAVDETECT from the CIAO 2.2 software package using wavelet scales from 1 to 16 pixels spaced by factors of 2, setting a false-source probability detection threshold of 10^-6, which should yield an expectation value of slightly less than one false source over the entire ACIS-S chip. They identify 144 X-ray point sources outside the nuclear region, 72 of which are located within the HST fields. An additional 3 sources are within 8" of the center of the galaxy and appear to be associated either with a weak active galactic nucleus or with brightness enhancements in the hot interstellar gas. One additional source (not included in this table) appears to be a spurious detection, as WAVDETECT assigns it a count rate of 1.5 counts, and visual inspection fails to find evidence of a source at that location. The optical data show 1102 sources whose half-light radii are small enough to be globular cluster candidates, 829 of which also have colors consistent with being globular clusters (with only four in the restricted central 10" region). 30 X-ray sources within 0.7" of an optical source with optical colors consistent with being globular clusters were found. Two additional sources show optical colors outside the globular cluster color range and are likely to be either foreground or background objects. The thirty globular cluster matches are likely to be low-mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs) associated with the globular clusters, while ~ 42 of the X-ray sources have no optical counterparts to V <~ 25 and I <~ 24, indicating that they are likely to be predominantly LMXBs in the field star population with a small amount of possible contamination from background active galactic nuclei. Thus approximately 40% of the X-ray sources are in globular clusters and ~ 4% of the globular clusters contain X-ray sources. This HEASARC table contains the X-ray data for the above-mentioned 147 detected X-ray sources, and the correlative optical data for the 30 optical counterparts which have colors consistent with being globular clusters. It does not contain the data from the full list of optical sources which were given in Table 2 of the reference paper. This table was created by the HEASARC in May 2007 based on CDS table J/ApJ/586/814 files table1.dat and table3.dat. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .

z0MGS is an archival project combining WISE and GALEX images of nearby galaxies. The main sample consists of ~11,000 galaxies that are deemed to have >10% probability of being within D < 50 Mpc and of having MB < -18. In addition, in the course of iterating on distance estimates when creating the atlas, the z0MGS team generated images for ~5, 000 additional galaxies. These are also included in the delivery, although they do not meet the formal selection criteria. All galaxies included in the atlas have WISE W1 coverage, at minimum. In total, out of the 15,748 galaxies in DR1, 15,716 have coverage in all WISE bands, 11,687 have GALEX NUV and 10,754 have GALEX FUV. If you use z0MGS data, please cite Leroy et al. (2019). The z0MGS Index contains an overview of the dataset and the integrated stellar mass and star formation rate measured for each galaxy. The z0MGS 7.5" Simple Index contains the same information as the main Index for the 7.5" resolution images, but does not include the Integrated Photometry, Sample Definition Parameters, or Derived Parameters.

A MeerKAT imaging survey of the Galactic Center and Bulge region yielded the detections of 39 known pulsars and 30 pulsar candidates. The candidates were identified primarily as steep-spectrum, circularly- and/or linearly-polarized sources, and to a lesser degree by the level of radio variability observed. We have chosen nine pulsar candidates to target in this proposal. These sources are the most pulsar-like of the MeerKAT point sources (based on their polarization, spectral index, and variability) that also have large enough flux densities to make a firm detection of pulsations if present. We propose to observe these nine candidates twice, for 1.5 hr each, in the 2024OCT semester.

This table contains the catalog of high Galactic-latitude (|b| > 10^o) X-ray sources detected in the first 37 months of data accumulation of the Monitor of All-sky X-ray Image/Gas Slit Camera (MAXI/GSC). To achieve the best sensitivity, the authors developed a background model of the GSC that well reproduced the data based on the detailed on-board calibration. Source detection was performed through image fits with a Poisson likelihood algorithm. The catalog contains 500 objects detected with significances >= 7 in the 4-10 keV band. The limiting sensitivity is ~7.5 x 10^-12 erg cm^-2 s^-1 ( ~0.6 mCrab) in the 4-10 KeV band for 50% of the survey area, which is the highest ever achieved in an all-sky survey mission covering this energy band. In their paper, the authors summarize the statistical properties of the catalog and results from cross-matching with the Swift/BAT 70-month catalog (BAT70), the meta-catalog of X-ray detected clusters of galaxies (MCXC), and the MAXI/GSC 7-month catalog (GSC7). This catalog lists the source name (2MAXI), the position and its error, the detection significances and fluxes in the 4-10 keV and 3-4 keV bands, the hardness ratio, and the basic information on the likely counterpart (the latter available for 296 of the sources). This table was created by the HEASARC in September 2013 based on the electronic version of Table 1 from the reference paper which was obtained from The ApJS web site.
