Gamma-RaySourceSummaryCatalog(Macomb&Gehrels1999&2001)

This database table is a revised and updated version of the published General Gamma-Ray Source Catalog (Macomb & Gehrels 1999, ApJS, 120, 335). It contains all 309 gamma-ray point sources listed in Table 1 of the published version of this catalog; 4 gamma-ray point sources (2CG 054+01, A0620-00, GX 340+0, and H1822-000) added by the HEASARC that were listed in Table 2 of the published catalog but were (presumably accidentally) omitted from Table 1 of the published catalog; and 107 sources (106 sources from the 3rd Egret (3EG) catalog of Hartman et al. (1999, ApJS, 123, 79) and GEV J1732-3130) that were compiled by Macomb and Gehrels subsequent to their original publication (Macomb and Gehrels 2001, unpublished). Thus, the present database table is essentially a summary master list of all detected gamma-ray point sources as of circa 2000. There is another HEASARC database table called the Gamma-Ray Source Detailed Catalog (Macomb & Gehrels 1999 & 2001) or MGGAMMADET that contains detailed information on the gamma-ray properties of these sources such as fluxes and spectral indices and that is based on Tables 2A-2G of the Macomb & Gehrels paper. This database table was created by the HEASARC in March 2001 based on tables supplied to the HEASARC by the catalog authors which contained an updated version of Table 1 from the published paper. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .
