Abstract:
We have compiled a sample of all quasars with measured radio emission
from the Veron-Cetty - Veron catalogue (1993, VV93 VII/166) detected
by ROSAT in the ALL-SKY SURVEY (RASS, Voges 1992), as targets of
pointed observations, or as serendipitous sources from pointed
observations as publicly available from the ROSAT point source
catalogue (ROSAT-SRC, Voges et al. 1995). The total number of ROSAT
detected radio quasars from the above three sources is 654 objects. 69
of the objects are classified as radio-quiet using the defining line
at a radio-loudness of 1.0, and 10 objects have no classification. The
5GHz data are from the 87GB radio survey, the NED database, or from
the Veron-Cetty - Veron catalogue. The power law indices and their
errors are estimated from the two hardness ratios given by the SASS
assuming Galactic absorption. The X-ray flux densities in the ROSAT
band (0.1-2.4keV) are calculated from the count rates using the energy
to counts conversion factor for power law spectra and Galactic
absorption. For the photon index we use the value obtained for a
individual source if the estimated 1 sigma error is smaller than 0.5,
otherwise we use the mean value 2.14.

Note on Name:
A '*' denotes a radio-quiet object; a '?' mark indicates that
no 5GHz flux is available; and a '!' means that the X-ray flux
is probably corrupted by another source.
Note on z:
A '0' as the 3rd decimal is mostly an artifact of the machine
readable form of the catalogue. See the printed version of VV93 VII/166
for the appropriate values.
Note on Vmag and e_Fx:
One sigma statistical errors from count rates only
Note on Gamma:
Spectral photon index in the ROSAT energy band for a power law
fit (S=C*E**(-Gamma)) with Galactic absorption
Note on E_Gamma and e_Gamma:
One sigma errors. If no error is given, the value of the error
is unphysically large.
Note on Com:
S: detected in RASS; P: detected in Pointed observations
