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.

    Description:
       This paper presents long slit CCD spectroscopy and X-ray data of 283 AGN
       detected in the ROSAT-All Sky Survey (RASS). Basis of the sample is the
       pre-identification of 4651 RASS sources on 134 sky fields (covering in
       total ~3500sq.deg.). The 283 presented AGN were selected from 1253 AGN
       candidates resulting from the pre-identification work.
