Magellanic Clouds, X-Ray Sources

Scientific paper

Observations in the Wing of the SMC were made from 2005 July to 2006 March with Chandra. The survey consisted of 20 fields, with exposure times ranging from 8.6-10.3ks.
X-ray parameters for 523 sources detected in the Wing of the Small Magellanic Cloud with Chandra are presented. For each source equatorial coordinates, positional error, net counts (total counts minus background counts) in the 0.5-8.0keV band, signal-to-noise of the detection and source flux in the 0.5-8.0keV band are given. The median, compressed median and normalized quartile ratio of the photon energy distribution, determined using quantile analysis, are given for sources with three or more counts. For the sources that have optical counterparts the V- and R-band magnitudes, B-V colour, X-ray to optical flux ratios based on the V- and R-band magnitudes, and a preliminary classification for the sources are given.
