Abstract

      The Galactic centre (GC) provides a unique laboratory for a detailed examination of the interplay between massive star formation and the nuclear environment of our Galaxy. Here are presented some of the results from a 100-ks Chandra Advanced CCD Imaging Spectrometer (ACIS) observation of the Arches and Quintuplet star clusters in the form of a catalog of 244 point-like X-ray sources detected in the observation. The deep Chandra ACIS-I observation (Obs. ID: 4500) was carried out on 2004 June 9. The Arches cluster was placed about 1-arcmin away from the aim point to minimize the effect of the CCD gaps on mapping the extended X-ray emission around the cluster. This table was created by the HEASARC in July 2007 based on <a href="https://cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/J/MNRAS/371/38">CDS Catalog J/MNRAS/371/38</a> file table1.dat.
