cds-question@unistra.frgalaxiescatalogsx-ray-sourcesx-ray-binary-starsWe present a catalogue of ultraluminous X-ray sources (ULXs) in external galaxies. The aim of this catalogue is to provide easy access to the properties of ULXs, their possible counterparts at other wavelengths (optical, IR, and radio), and their host galaxies. The catalogue contains 229 ULXs reported in the literature until April 2004. Most ULXs are stellar-mass-black hole X-ray binaries, but it is not excluded that some ULXs could be intermediate-mass black holes. A small fraction of the candidate ULXs may be background Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) and Supernova Remnants (SNRs). ULXs with luminosity above 10^40^erg/s are found in both starburst galaxies and in the halos of early-type galaxies.2005A&A...429.1125Lhttps://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/cat/J/A+A/429/1125CatalogResearchIsServedByTAP VizieR generic serviceIsServedByConesearch servicerelated-toJ/ApJS/143/25 : Intermediate-luminosity X-ray objects catalog (Colbert+ 2002)J/MNRAS/344/134 : Chandra ultraluminous X-ray sources (Humphrey+, 2003)https://cds.unistra.fr/vizier-org/licences_vizier.htmlhttps://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/A+A/429/1125https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/A+A/429/1125http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/VizieR-2?-source=J/A+A/429/1125https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/A+A/429/1125https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/A+A/429/1125http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/votable?-source=J/A+A/429/1125GETtext/xml+votablehttps://tapvizier.cds.unistra.fr/TAPVizieR/tapCone search capability for table J/A+A/429/1125/table1b (Ultraluminous X-ray sources)https://vizier.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/conesearch/J/A+A/429/1125/table1b?https://vizier.iucaa.in/viz-bin/conesearch/J/A+A/429/1125/table1b?http://vizieridia.saao.ac.za/viz-bin/conesearch/J/A+A/429/1125/table1b?GETtext/xml+votable180.050000true11.76625-20.7953890.0055555555555555566/2155 2372 2409 3278 3446 3506 4127 4149 4439 4447 5241 5793 5975 6034 6040 6098 7225 7424 7606 7659 7743 7799 7869 8173 8225 10475 10761 10769 10841 10888 10905 10912 10977 10991 11027 11127 11246 11434 15592-15593 16655 16701 17472 17754 17757 17780 18398 24733 25344 26125 27719 27730 27767 27773 27861 27907 27936 27945 28033 28035 28141 28184 28496 28521 28535 28538 28653 31998 33193 33920-33921 33954 33958 34272 34471 34492-34494 34531 34533-34535 36231 36785 38139 38853 41586 43262 43420 43881 46442 47047https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/viz-bin/moc/J/A+A/429/1125?format=asciiX-raydefaultJ/A+A/429/1125/table1aHost galaxiesrecnoRecord number assigned by the VizieR team.
