Abstract:
Following its launch in 2008 June, the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope
(Fermi) began a sky survey in August. The Large Area Telescope (LAT)
on Fermi in three months produced a deeper and better resolved map of
the γ-ray sky than any previous space mission. We present here
initial results for energies above 100MeV for the 205 most significant
(statistical significance greater than ∼10σ) γ-ray sources
in these data. These are the best characterized and best localized
point-like (i.e., spatially unresolved) γ-ray sources in the
early mission data.

Note (1): Constructed according to IAU Specifications for Nomenclature:
m is decimal minutes of R.A.; in the name R.A. and decl. are truncated
at 0.1 decimal minutes and 1', respectively
Note (2): used for the TS>100 cut.
Test Statistic (TS)=2Δlog(likelihood) between models with and
without the source. The TS associated with each source is a measure of
the source significance.
Note (3): A 0 in this column indicates that the entry in the F23 flux
column is an upper limit.
Note (4): Like "ID" in 3EG catalog, but with more detail. Capital letters
indicate firm identifications; lower-case letters indicate
associations. The source class is defined as follows:
PSR = pulsar
PSR LAT = LAT-discovered pulsar
HXB = high-mass X-ray binary
pwn = Pulsar wind nebula
hxb = High-mass X-ray binary (black hole or neutron star)
bzb = BL Lac type of blazar
bzq = FSRQ type of blazar
bzu = Uncertain type of blazar
rdg = Radio galaxy
glb = Globular cluster
