Scientific paper

The ROSAT All-Sky Survey Bright Source Catalogue (RASS-BSC, revision 1RXS) is derived from the all-sky survey performed during the first half year (1990/91) of the ROSAT mission. 18,806 sources are catalogued (five sources were removed compared to the 18,811 sources of the 1996 version), down to a limiting ROSAT PSPC count-rate of 0.05cts/s in the 0.1-2.4keV energy band, with a detection likelihood of at least 15 and with at least 15 source photons. For 94% of the sources visual inspection confirmed the results of the standard processing with respect to existence and position; the remaining 6% were re-analysed and appropriately flagged. At a brightness limit of 0.1cts/s (8,547 sources) the catalogue represents a sky coverage of 92%. Broad band images are available for a subset of the flagged sources from http://www.rosat.mpe-garching.mpg.de/survey/rass-bsc .
