Database overview



X-ray and optical images
Raw and spatially
filtered X-ray images are given for
each entry in the catalogue. An
optical DSS-II r-band image (e.g. POSS-II) is also provided.
Cross-identification
For each cluster in
the catalogue we
provide the list of
objects from the
NASA/IPAC Extragalactic Database
for which redshift information is available and within 3 arcmin of the X-ray centroid. This research has made use of Aladin sky atlas developed at CDS, Strasbourg Observatory.
Detailed X-ray information
Images of the XMM
pointings and corresponding
information about flare removal
procedure are accessible for each
catalogue entry. Count-rate
measurements in several energy bands
can also be retrieved for each cluster, along with corresponding plots.
