Note : this is the description file of the original catalog. This HTML page corresponds well to the original description, but some minor changes in the format may have been introduced in the FITS output files in order to allow for arithmetic operations on quantities such as coordinates and times. h:m:s and d:m:s units are normally converted into degrees, and YYYY-MM-DD into julian days.
Similarly, some slight changes may have been introduced in the units; the value given in the HTML files supersedes the value indicated in the ReadMe file for this catalogue.

    Abstract:
        The largest Local Group spiral galaxy, M31, has been completely
        imaged for the first time, obtaining a luminosity lower limit about
        1035erg/s in the 0.2-4.5keV band. Our XMM-Newton EPIC survey
        combines archival observations along the major axis, from June 2000 to
        July 2004, with observations taken between June 2006 and February 2008
        that cover the remainder of the D25 ellipse. The main goal of the
        paper is to study X-ray source populations of M31.

        An X-ray catalogue of 1897(*) sources was created with 914 detected
        for the first time. Source classification and identification were
        based on X-ray hardness ratios, spatial extent of the sources, and
        cross correlation with catalogues in the X-ray, optical, infrared and
        radio wavelengths. We also analysed the long-term variability of the
        X-ray sources and this variability allows us to distinguish between
        X-ray binaries and active galactic nuclei (AGN). Furthermore,
        supernova remnant classifications of previous studies that did not
        use long-term variability as a classification criterion could be
        validated. Including previous Chandra and ROSAT observations in the
        long-term variability study allowed us to detect additional transient
        or at least highly variable sources, which are good candidate X-ray
        binaries.

     (*) the final catalog of table5 icludes 1948 sources.

    Note (2): fvarmax>100, indicates that the source is a transient object.

    Global notes:

    Note (G2): Count rate and flux in XID band (0.2-4.5keV)

    Note (G3): HRi=(R(i+1)-R(i))/(R(i+1)+R(i)) where Ri are the count rates
               in the energy bands 1 to 5 and
      band 1 = 0.2-0.5keV,
      band 2 = 0.5-1.0keV,
      band 3 = 1.0-2.0keV,
      band 4 = 2.0-4.5keV,
      band 5 = 4.5-12keV
    Note (G4): First character for EPIC PN, second for MOS1, third for MOS2;
      the letters are 'T' (true,  source is in field of view of instrument),
      or 'F' (false) otherwise.
    Note (G6): Classifications used (see Table 6) as follows:
      fg Star  = foreground star
     <fg Star> = foreground star candidate
         AGN   = active galactic nucleus
        <AGN>  = AGN candidate
         Gal   = galaxy
        <Gal>  = galaxy candidate
         GCl   = galaxy cluster
        <GCl>  = galaxy cluster candidate
         SSS   = supersoft source in M 31
        <SSS>  = supersoft source candidate in M 31
         SNR   = supernova remnant in M 31
        <SNR>  = supernova remnant candidate in M 31
         GlC   = source in globular cluster
        <GlC>  = source in globular cluster candidate
         XRB   = X-ray binary in M 31
        <XRB>  = X-ray binary candidate in M 31
        <hard> = HR2-e_HR2>-0.2 or only HR3 and HR4 defined, and
                 no other classification
