NuSTAR COSMOS Field X-Ray Source Catalog

By combining detections in 3 bands, the survey consists of a sample of 91 NuSTAR sources with luminosities ~ 10<sup>42</sup> - 10<sup>45.5</sup> erg s<sup>-1</sup>and redshifts z ~ 0.04-2.5. Thirty-two sources are detected in the 8-24 keV band with fluxes ~100 times fainter than sources detected by Swift-BAT. Of the 91 detections, all but 4 are associated with a Chandra and/or XMM-Newton point-like counterpart.

One source is associated with an extended lower energy X-ray source. The authors present the X-ray (hardness ratio and luminosity)and optical-to-X-ray properties. The observed fraction of candidate Compton-thick active galactic nuclei measured from the hardness ratio is between 13% - 20%.

In their paper, the authors discuss the spectral properties of the source named NuSTAR J100259+0220.5 (source number 330) at a redshift z = 0.044, which has the highest hardness ratio in the entire sample. The measured column density exceeds 10<sup>24</sup> cm<sup>-2</sup>, implying the source is Compton-thick. This source was not previously recognized as such without the data at energies >10 keV.

This table was created by the HEASARC in August 2015 based on the the machine-readable versions of Table 5 (the COSMOS Field NuSTAR source catalog) that was obtained from the ApJ web site. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .
