| Abstract | In succession to the first ASCA Medium Sensitivity Survey catalog (AMSS-I), we present the second X-ray source catalog (AMSS-II), constructed from the Gas Imaging Spectrometer data covering Galactic latitudes |b|>10deg observed between 1997 January and 2000 May. The AMSS-II catalog uses 306 fields and contains a total of 1190 sources detected with significance of >5 σ in either the 0.7-7, 2-10, or 0.7-2 keV band. The AMSS-I and AMSS-II catalogs list a total of 2533 sources from an area of 278 deg2 and provides a unique database of X-ray sources in the flux range of 10-13-10-11 ergs cm-2 s-1 (0.7-10 keV). We summarize statistical properties of a complete X-ray sample consisting of 1969 serendipitous selected from AMSS-I and AMSS-II. |
