Note: | The XMM-Newton Survey Science Centre generates catalogs of serendipitous X-ray sources detected in archival X-ray observations. This new resource is based on stacking of X-ray observations, in the past (catalogues 1XMM, 2XMM, 3XMM) all observations were treated individually. http://xmmssc.irap.omp.eu |
Notes: | The source designation we gave initially had an 's' appended. Upon request of the referee of our paper and after consultation with Marion Schmitz we decided to register a new acronym. |
