Lockman Hole XMM-Newton X-Ray Point Source Catalog
Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)
The Lockman Hole represents the sky area of lowest Galactic line-of-sight columns density.
Description
It was observed by the XMM-Newton X-ray observatory in 18 pointings performed between April 2000 and December 2002. The total exposure time spent on the field was 1.16 Ms (EPIC pn detector; EPIC MOS detector: 1.30 Ms).
The effective exposure after removal of times of high particle background is 637 ks (EPIC pn detector; EPIC MOS detector: 765 ks). The catalog lists positions, count rates, fluxes, hardness ratios, and partial optical classifications of 409 X-ray point sources detected in the central 0.196 square degrees of the field down to a detection likelihood threshold in the full energy band of 10 (3.9 sigma), up to 4 of which may be spurious according to the authors' Monte Carlo simulations.

The analysis was performed using the XMM-Newton SAS data analysis package version 6.0. This table was created by the HEASARC in May 2008 based on the <a href="cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/J/A+A/479/283">CDS Catalog J/A+A/479/283</a> file table3.dat. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .
