2SXPS: An Improved and Expanded Swift X-Ray Telescope Point-source Catalog
Cenko, S. B.; Tagliaferri, G.; Kennea, J. A. +8 more
We present the 2SXPS (Swift-XRT Point Source) catalog, containing 206,335 point sources detected by the Swift X-ray Telescope (XRT) in the 0.3-10 keV energy range. This catalog represents a significant improvement over 1SXPS, with double the sky coverage (now 3790 deg2), and several significant developments in source detection and class…
The Multi-INstrument Burst ARchive (MINBAR)
Watts, Anna L.; Galloway, Duncan K.; Kuulkers, Erik +7 more
We present the largest sample of type I (thermonuclear) X-ray bursts yet assembled, comprising 7083 bursts from 85 bursting sources. The sample is drawn from observations with Xenon-filled proportional counters on the long-duration satellites RXTE, BeppoSAX, and International Gamma-Ray Astrophysics Laboratory between 1996 February 8 and 2012 May 3…
