INTEGRAL/IBIS 17-yr hard X-ray all-sky survey

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

The International Gamma-Ray Astrophysics Laboratory (INTEGRAL), launched in 2002, continues its successful work in observing the sky at energies E>20keV.

Description

The legacy of the mission already includes a large number of discovered or previously poorly studied hard X-ray sources. The growing INTEGRAL archive allows one to conduct an all-sky survey including a number of deep extragalactic fields and the deepest ever hard X-ray survey of the Galaxy.

Taking advantage of the data gathered over 17 years with the IBIS coded-mask telescope of INTEGRAL, we conducted survey of hard X-ray sources, providing flux information from 17 to 290keV. The catalog includes 929 objects, 890 of which exceed a detection threshold of 4.5 sigma and the rest are detected at 4.0-4.5 sigma and belong to known cataloged hard X-ray sources. Among the identified sources of known or suspected nature, 376 are associated with the Galaxy and Magellanic clouds, including 145 low-mass and 115 high-mass X-ray binaries, 79 cataclysmic variables, and 37 of other types; and 440 are extragalactic, including 429 active galactic nuclei (AGNs), 2 ultra-luminous sources, one supernova (AT2018cow) and 8 galaxy clusters. 113 sources remain unclassified. 46 objects are detected in the hard X-ray band for the first time.

The LogN-LogS distribution of 356 non-blazar AGNs is measured down to a flux of 2E-12erg/s/cm^2^ and can be described by a power law with a slope of 1.44+/-0.09 and normalization 8E-3/deg2 at 1E-11erg/s/cm^2^. The LogN-LogS distribution of unclassified sources indicates that the majority of them are of extragalactic origin.
