- Description:
- Nuclear obscuration plays a key role in the initial phases of AGN growth, yet not many highly obscured AGN are currently known beyond the local Universe, and their search is an active topic of research. The XMM-Newton survey in the Chandra Deep Field South (XMM-CDFS) aims at detecting and studying the spectral properties of a significant number of obscured and Compton-thick (N<sub>H</sub> >= 10<sup>24</sup> cm<sup>-2</sup>) AGN. The large effective area of XMM-Newton in the 2-10 and 5-10 keV bands, coupled with a 3.45-Ms nominal exposure time (2.82 and 2.45 Ms after lightcurve cleaning for MOS and PN respectively), allows the authors to build clean samples in both bands, and makes the XMM-CDFS the deepest XMM-Newton survey currently published in the 5-10 keV band. The large multi-wavelength and spectroscopic coverage of the CDFS area allows for an immediate and abundant scientific return. In this paper, the authors present the data reduction of the XMM-CDFS observations, the method for source detection in the 2-10 and 5-10 keV bands, and the resulting catalogs. A number of 339 and 137 sources are listed in the above bands with flux limits of 6.6 x 10<sup>-16</sup> and 9.5 x 10<sup>-16</sup> erg/s/cm<sup>2</sup>, respectively. The flux limits at 50% of the maximum sky coverage are 1.8 x 10<sup>-15</sup> and 4.0 x 10<sup>-15</sup> erg/s/cm<sup>2</sup>, respectively. The catalogs have been cross-correlated with the Chandra ones: 315 and 130 identifications have been found with a likelihood-ratio method, respectively. 15 new sources, previously undetected by Chandra, have been found; 5 of them lie in the 4-Ms area. Redshifts, either spectroscopic or photometric, are available for ~92% of the sources. The number counts in both bands are presented and compared to other works. The survey coverage has been calculated with the help of two extensive sets of simulations, one set per band. The simulations have been produced with a newly-developed simulator, written with the aim of the most careful reproduction of the background spatial properties. For this reason, the authors present a detailed decomposition of the XMM-Newton background into its components: cosmic, particle, and residual soft protons. The three components have different spatial distributions. The importance of these three components depends on the band and on the camera; the particle background is the most important one (80-90% of the background counts), followed by the soft protons (4-20%). X-ray sources were detected in the 3-Ms XMM-Newton observations of the Chandra Deep Field South. Source detection was done in two steps, first using the PWXDetect software, and then using emldetect. 339 Sources detected by both programs are presented in the main tables, while 74 sources only detected by PWXDetect are presented in the supplementary tables. The 2-10 and 5-10 keV bands were analyzed separately. This HEASARC table contains the main sample of 339 sources detected in the 2-10 keV band in the XMM-CDFS survey. (The table of 5-10 keV XMM-CDFS sources is also available at the HEASARC as the XMMCDFS510 table). This table does not include the 74 supplementary sources which were detected only with PWXDetect. These supplementary sources were on average detected at low significance; many of them were on the borders of the FOV; and a few were in crowded fields where EMLDetect had trouble separating the different PSF components. Nevertheless, 4 of these sources were bright enough that a spectrum could be extracted. This table was created by the HEASARC in September 2013 based on <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/J/A+A/555/A42">CDS Catalog J/A+A/555/A42</a> files main210.dat and notes210.dat.

- Description:
- In this paper we investigate the properties of low X-ray-to-optical flux ratio sources detected in a wide-area (2.5{deg}^2^) shallow [fX(0.5-8keV)~10^-14^erg/s/cm^2^] XMM-Newton survey. We find a total of 26 sources (5 per cent of the total X-ray-selected population) with log(fX)/f(opt)<-0.9 to the above flux limit. Optical spectroscopy is available for 20 of these low X-ray-to-optical flux ratio objects.

- Description:
- We present an analysis of the X-ray spectral properties of 61 hard X-ray (2-8keV) selected sources from the bright XMM-Newton/2dF (f(2-8keV)>10^-14^erg/cm^2^/s) survey. This comprises nine XMMNewton pointings in the North Galactic Pole region (~1.6deg^2^) and overlaps with the SDSS, 2QZ and 2dFGRS surveys. Our sources contribute about 50 per cent of the 2-10keV X-ray background down to the flux limit of 10^-14^erg/cm^2^/s. The hardness ratio distribution of the sample suggests a deficit of heavily absorbed sources. Spectroscopic identifications exist for 34 sources.

- Description:
- The XMM-Newton Extended Survey of the Taurus Molecular Cloud (XEST) surveys the most populated ~5 square degrees of the Taurus Molecular Cloud, using the XMM-Newton X-ray observatory to study the thermal structure, variability, and long-term evolution of hot plasma, to investigate the magnetic dynamo, and to search for new potential members of the association. We present overall correlations with fundamental stellar parameters that were derived from the previous literature. The present overview paper introduces the project and provides the basic results from the X-ray analysis of all sources detected in the XEST survey. Comprehensive tables summarize the stellar properties of all targets surveyed. The survey goes deeper than previous X-ray surveys of Taurus by about an order of magnitude and for the first time systematically accesses very faint and strongly absorbed TMC objects. We find a detection rate of 85% and 98% for classical and weak-line T Tauri stars (CTTS resp. WTTS), and identify about half of the surveyed protostars and brown dwarfs. Overall, 136 out of 169 surveyed stellar systems are detected. We describe an X-ray luminosity vs. mass correlation, discuss the distribution of X-ray-to-bolometric luminosity ratios, and show evidence for lower X-ray luminosities in CTTS compared to WTTS.

- Description:
- We present the first results from the XMM-Newton Galactic Plane Survey (XGPS). In the first phase of the programme, 22 pointings were used to cover a region of approximately 3 deg^2^between 19{deg} and 22{deg} in Galactic longitude and +/-0.6{deg} in latitude. In total we have resolved over 400 point X-ray sources, at >=5{sigma} significance, down to a flux limit of ~2x10^-14^erg/s/cm^2^(2-10 keV).

- Description:
- This table contains the first results from the XMM-Newton Galactic Plane Survey (XGPS). In the first phase of the program, 22 pointings were used to cover a region of approximately 3 square degrees between 19 and 22 degrees in Galactic Longitude and +/-0.6 degrees in Galactic Latitude. In total, over 400 point X-ray sources have been resolved at >=5-sigma significance, down to a flux limit of ~2 x 10<sup>-14</sup> erg/s/cm<sup>2</sup> (2-10 keV). The sources exhibit a very wide range of spectral hardness, with interstellar absorption identified as a major influence. The source populations detected in the soft (0.4 - 2 keV) band and hard (2 - 6 keV) band show surprisingly little overlap. The majority of the soft sources appear to be associated with relatively nearby stars with active stelaar coronae, judging from their high coincidence with bright stellar counterparts. The combination of the XGPS measurements in the hard X-ray band with the results from earlier surveys carried out by ASCA and Chandra reveals the form of the low-latitude X-ray source counts over 4 decades of flux. It appears that extragalactic sources dominate below ~10<sup>-13</sup> erg/s/cm<sup>2</sup> (2-10 keV), with a predominantly Galactic source population present above this flux threshold. The nature of the faint Galactic population observed by XMM-Newton remains uncertain, although cataclysmic variables and RS CVn systems may contribute substantially.

- XMM-Newton galaxy clusters X-ray properties
- Short Name:
- J/ApJ/794/48
- Date:

- Publisher:
- CDS
- Description:
- We present new X-ray temperatures and improved X-ray luminosity estimates for 15 new and archival XMM-Newton observations of galaxy clusters at intermediate redshift with mass and luminosities near the galaxy group/cluster division (M_2500_<2.4x10_70_^-1^M_{sun}_, L<2x10^44^erg/s, 0.3<z<0.6). These clusters have weak-lensing mass measurements based on Hubble Space Telescope observations of clusters representative of an X-ray-selected sample (the ROSAT 160SD survey). The angular resolution of XMM-Newton allows us to disentangle the emission of these galaxy clusters from nearby point sources, which significantly contaminated previous X-ray luminosity estimates for 6 of the 15 clusters. We extend cluster scaling relations between X-ray luminosity, temperature, and weak-lensing mass for low-mass, X-ray-selected clusters out to redshift ~0.45. These relations are important for cosmology and the astrophysics of feedback in galaxy groups and clusters. Our joint analysis with a sample of 50 clusters in a similar redshift range but with larger masses (M_500_<21.9x10^14^M_{sun}_, 0.15<=z<=0.55) from the Canadian Cluster Comparison Project finds that within r_2500_, M{prop.to}L^0.44+/-0.05^, T{prop.to}L^0.23+/-0.02^, and M{prop.to}T^1.9+/-0.2^. The estimated intrinsic scatter in the M-L relation for the combined sample is reduced to {sigma}_log(M|L)_=0.10, from {sigma}_log(M|L)_=0.26 with the original ROSAT measurements. We also find an intrinsic scatter for the T-L relation, {sigma}_log(T|L)_=0.07+/-0.01.

- XMM-Newton Large-Scale Structure Deep Full-Exposure X-Ray Source Catalog
- Short Name:
- XMMLSSDEEP
- Date:

- Publisher:
- NASA/GSFC HEASARC
- Description:
- This table contains some of the X-ray results from the final release of the multiwavelength XMM-Large Scale Structure (LSS) data set, covering the full survey area of 11.1 deg<sup>2</sup>. The 124 XMM-Newton observations used in the complete XMM-LSS are described in Section 2 and Table 1 of the primary reference paper (Chiappetti et al. 2013, hereafter Paper II). The X-ray data were processed with the latest XMM-LSS XAMIN pipeline version. The catalogs in Paper II supersede the catalog from the first paper in this series (Paper I: Pierre et al. 2007, MNRAS, 382, 279, available at the HEASARC as the XMMLSS table) pertaining to the initial 5 deg<sup>2</sup>. The authors provide X-ray source lists in the customary soft and hard energy bands (0.5-2 keV and 2-10 keV, respectively) for a total of 6721 objects in the deep full-exposure 2XLSSd catalog presented in this table, and 5572 objects in the catalog limited to 10 ks exposures (available at the HEASARC as the XMMLSS10KS table), above a detection likelihood of 15 in at least one band. At the XMMLSS web site which they maintain (<a href="http://cosmosdb.iasf-milano.inaf.it/XMM-LSS/">http://cosmosdb.iasf-milano.inaf.it/XMM-LSS/</a>), the authors also provide a multiwavelength catalog, cross-correlating their list of X-ray sources with infrared, near-infrared, optical and ultraviolet catalogs. Customary data products, such as X-ray FITS images and thumbnail images from the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope Legacy Survey and the Spitzer Wide-Area Infrared Extragalactic Survey, are made available there, together with their data base in Milan, which can be queried interactively. In this table, the authors provide the source list for the full area (11.1 square degrees) of the XMM-LSS, with a total of 6721 point-like or extended sources above a detection likelihood of 15 in either the 0.5-2 or 2-10 keV bands. This table, the 2XLSSd "deep catalog" version containing the result of the analysis of the full-length exposures, lists the main X-ray parameters, while further multiwavelength parameters and data products (X-ray images and optical/IR thumbnails) are available at the Milan XMM-LSS database site referenced above. It supersedes the first XMM-LSS version (Pierre et al. 2007, available at the HEASARC as the XMMLSS table). Analogously to Paper I, only sources with an off-axis angle < 13 arcmin were processed by the authors' X-ray data processing pipeline software, XAMIN. The catalog includes all the extended sources classified in the customary C1 and C2 classes (see Section 3.6 of Paper II) plus all point-like sources with a point source detection likelihood (DET_LH) greater than 15 (so-called non-spurious sources). This table was created by the HEASARC in February 2013 based on the <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/J/MNRAS/429/1652">CDS catalog J/MNRAS/429/1652</a> file 2xlssd.dat.
