ADC_Keywords: X-ray sources ; Binaries, X-ray ; Galaxies, nearby Keywords: galaxies: individual (M33, NGC 598) Abstract: In this paper we present the source list for three Chandra observations of the Local Group galaxy M33. The observations are centered on the nucleus and on the star-forming region NGC 604. We detect a total of 261 sources in an area of 0.2°2 down to a flux limit of 3x10-16ergs/s/cm2, which corresponds to a luminosity of 2x1034ergs/s at a distance of 840kpc.

Note (2): Most probable value, for details see Sec. 2. Note (3): For sources with more than 100 counts, luminosity was computed from spectral fit, otherwise Γ=2 and NH=6e+20cm-2 are assumed. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Byte-by-byte Description of file: table4.dat -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Bytes Format Units Label Explanations -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1- 3 A3 --- --- [CXO] 5- 20 A16 --- CXOU Chandra source identification 22- 25 F4.1 arcsec e_pos Chandra positional uncertainty 27- 28 I2 h RAh Counterpart hour of Right Ascension (J2000) 30- 31 I2 min RAm Counterpart minute of Right Ascension (J2000) 33- 37 F5.2 s RAs Counterpart second of Right Ascension (J2000) 39 A1 --- DE- Sign of the counterpart Declination (J2000) 40- 41 I2 deg DEd Counterpart degree of Declination (J2000) 43- 44 I2 arcmin DEm Counterpart arcminute of Declination (J2000) 46- 49 F4.1 arcsec DEs Counterpart arcsec of Declination (J2000) 51- 55 F5.2 mag Vmag Counterpart V band magnitude 57- 61 F5.2 mag B-V ?
