XTE All-Sky Slew Survey AGN Catalog

The summed X-ray output of AGN with L<sub>X</sub> > 10<sup>41</sup> erg/s estimated here is smaller than the earlier estimated total X-ray volume emissivity in the local Universe, suggesting that a comparable X-ray flux may be produced together by lower luminosity AGN, non-active galaxies and clusters of galaxies. The authors also presented a sample of 35 AGN candidates, composed of unidentified XSS sources.

Most of these AGN belong to the local population (z < 0.1). For each confirmed AGN source, the following information is provided: AGN class, the count rate in two energy bands (3-8 keV and 8-20 keV), the observed and intrinsic (absorption-corrected) luminosity in the 3 - 20keV band, and the intrinsic absorption column density. For the AGN candidates, composed of unidentified XSS sources, the following information is provided: the count rate in two energy bands (3-8 keV and 8-20 keV), the estimated intrinsic absorption column density, and information about RASS Bright Source Catalog and HEAO A-1 X-ray source counterparts.
