Upper Sco XMM-Newton X-Ray Point Source Catalog

The authors studied the X-ray emission from young stars by analyzing the deep (a ~53 ks exposure centered at a J2000.0 RA and Dec of 16 14 00.0, -23 00 00 and a ~43 ks exposure at 15 56 25.0, -23 37 47) XMM-Newton observations of two regions of the Upper Scorpius (USco) subgroup of the Scorpius-Centaurus (Sco-Cen) association which is estimated to have an age of 5 Myr. Portions of the USco association were observed in the optical with the CTIO Curtis Schmidt telescope and the Danish 1.54m telescope. This table contains all the X-ray sources detected in the two XMM-Newton observations, as well as their near-IR counterparts from the 2MASS and DENIS catalogs, and their optical counterparts from the CTIO and Danish 1.54 m observations. Based on the near-infrared and optical photometry, 22 Upper Scorpius photometric members have been identified among the 224 detected X-ray sources. This table was created by the HEASARC in March 2007 based on <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/J/A+A/459/199">CDS catalog J/A+A/459/199</a> files tabled1.dat and table2.dat.
