XCS-DR1 Cluster Catalogue

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

The XMM Cluster Survey (XCS) is a serendipitous search for galaxy clusters using all publicly available data in the XMM-Newton Science Archive.

Description

Its main aims are to measure cosmological parameters and trace the evolution of X-ray scaling relations. In this paper we present the first data release from the XMM Cluster Survey (XCS-DR1).

This consists of 503 optically confirmed, serendipitously detected, X-ray clusters. Of these clusters, 256 are new to the literature and 357 are new X-ray discoveries. We present 463 clusters with a redshift estimate (0.06<z<1.46), including 261 clusters with spectroscopic redshifts.

The remainder have photometric redshifts. In addition, we have measured X-ray temperatures (TX) for 401 clusters (0.4<TX<14.7keV).
