The catalogs for the paper ''The bimodal distribution of donor stars in X-ray binaries''

Authors/Creators

Description

The compressed file contains four catalogs, which are associated with the paper "The bimodal distribution of donor stars in X-ray binaries"

 

1. "Table1_all3964_Identical to the table within the paper.fits"

This file is identical to Table 3 in the paper. It is the complete X-ray binary catalog of 3964 objects, which includes basic information such as the star name, coordinates and their errors (from the Simbad database), the X-ray binary type, and the bibcodes for the coordinate and type references.

Parameters         Unit     Description
Name                          Star name from Simbad
RA                 deg     Right Ascension from Simbad
DEC                deg     Declination from Simbad
COO_ERR_MAJA       sec     major axis of the error ellipse from Simbad
COO_ERR_MINA       sec     the minor axis of the error ellipse from Simbad
type                          type of XRBs (HXB or LXB)
COO_BIBCODE_ref               reference BIBCODE for the coordinates
type_BIBCODE_ref              reference BIBCODE for the type of XRBs

2. "Table2_pars288_Identical to the table within the paper.fits"

This file is identical to Table 4 in the paper. The first four columns contain the results of the cross-matching with Gaia DR3. The subsequent five columns list the absolute parameters that we determined based on atmospheric parameters and the MIST stellar evolution model. The final parameter is the orbital period from F. Fortin et al. (2023), A. Avakyan et al. (2023), and M. Neumann et al. (2023).
