Superseded Selected Data from the Third UHURU X-Ray Catalog (Share ca. 1975)
================================================================================
Selected data from the third UHURU X-Ray Catalog
Share G.
<private communication (ca.1975)>
================================================================================
ADC_Keywords: X-ray sources ; Surveys
Mission_Name: UHURU, SAS-A
Description:
The catalog of 161 X-ray sources was observed with Uhuru satellite.
The night-time portions of 125 days of observations were included in
this catalog. The source locations were given in equatorial
coordinates (1950 epoch) in decimal degree notation. For each source
an intensity was given in count rates measured with Uhuru from 2 to 6
keV corrected for elevation in the collimator fields of view. The
comments given for the sources consist of general remarks which
indicate peculiar X-ray properties, e.g., spectrum or time scales of
variability, and a "counterparts" comment. Counterparts followed by a
question mark "?" indicate either tentative identification or that the
object is in or near the error region of the X-ray source. Also,
comments with a question mark indicate possible correspondence.
