XBOOTES: NDWFS Bootes Field X-Ray Point Source Catalog

For a 5000 s observation and assuming a canonical unabsorbed active galactic nucleus (AGN) type X-ray spectrum, a 4 count on-axis source corresponds to a flux of 4.7 x 10^-15 ergs cm^-2 s^-1 in the soft (0.5-2 keV) band, 1.5 x 10^-14 ergs cm^-2 s^-1 in the hard (2-7 keV) band, and 7.8 x 10^-15 ergs cm^-2 s^-1 in the full (0.5-7 keV) band.

The full 0.5-7 keV band n >= 4 count list contained in this HEASARC table has 3293 point sources. In addition to the point sources, 43 extended sources (not included in this HEASARC table) have been detected, consistent with the depth of these observations and the number counts of clusters. Presented here in the X-ray point source catalog for the XBootes survey are the source positions, X-ray fluxes, hardness ratios, and their uncertainties, for the 3293 sources with >= 4 counts in the full band.

This table was created by the HEASARC in February 2006 based on the machine-readable version of Table 3 in the above paper which was obtained from the electronic ApJ website. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .
