Chandra Lockman Area North Survey (CLANS) X-Ray Source Catalog

CLANS consists of nine separate 70 ks Chandra ACIS-I exposures centered at J2000.0 RA and Dec of (10 46,+59 01) (see Table 2 of the reference paper for the full observational details) which were combined to create an 0.6 deg² image containing 761 sources. The CLANS observations consist of a raster with an ~2 arcminute overlap between contiguous pointings. Following the prescription in Yang et al. (2004, AJ, 128, 1501) for the CLASXS field, the authors merged the nine individual pointing catalogs to create the final CLANS X-ray catalog.

For sources with more than one detection in the nine fields, they used the detection from the observation in which the effective area of the source was the largest. This table was created by the HEASARC in December 2008 based on the electronic versions of Tables 4 and 5 from the paper which were obtained from the ApJ web site.
