- XSA v9.3 release with access to the Slew Survey (XMMSL2) and
  OM (XMM-SUSS3) catalogues

* Release of the new version of the XMM-Newton Slew Survey Source
  Catalogue: XMMSL2

* Release of the new version of the XMM-Newton OM Catalogue:
  XMM-SUSS3



XSA v9.3 release with access to the Slew Survey (XMMSL2) and
OM (XMM-SUSS3) catalogues
------------------------------------------------------------

A new version of the XMM-Newton Science Archive (XSA v9.3) is available at

            https://www.cosmos.esa.int/web/xmm-newton/xsa

Public ODFs and PPS products  can now be individually downloaded without
the  need  of login  into  XSA.   Besides  other improvements,  the  new
pipeline products  for EPIC  sources (postcards with  extraction regions
and  combined light curves)  can be  visualised, and  it is  possible to
customise coordinates and distance units in the results panel.

XSA v9.3 provides access to the new versions of the Slew Survey (XMMSL2)
and OM (XMM-SUSS3) catalogues.



- Release of the new version the XMM-Newton Slew Survey Source Catalogue:
  XMMSL2
  -----------------------------------------------------------------------

An  updated version  of  the catalogue  of  X-ray sources  found in  the
EPIC-pn camera during slews between targets, has been released under the
name  XMMSL2.   This  catalogue  has  been  produced   from  a  complete
reprocessing  of 2114 slews,  made between  September 2001  and December
2014, using a point  spread function specifically constructed for source
detection in slew observations.

The catalogue contains  29393 sources, an increase of  nearly 50% on the
previous edition.  About 84% of the sky has been covered, at least once,
in this release.

This catalogue can be accessed and searched with XSA, or downloaded as a
FITS table from the XSA web page.



- Release of the new version  of the XMM-Newton OM Catalogue:
  XMM-SUSS3
  -----------------------------------------------------------

The third version of  the XMM-Newton OM Serendipitous Ultraviolet Source
Survey Catalogue (XMM-SUSS3) has been released.

This version  includes all OM  science observations obtained  until July
2015  (7886).   All data  have  been  reprocessed  using the  XMM-Newton
Science   Analysis  Software   (SAS)   system  version   15.0.   A   new
time-dependent  sensitivity degradation correction  has been  applied to
all data.

The total  number of  entries is 6.88  million. They correspond  to 4.75
million  sources,  of  which  23%  have  multiple  entries  coming  from
different observations.

The  XMM-SUSS3  catalogue  can   be  accessed  through  the  XSA  search
interface.  Both  the complete  catalogue and a  reduced version  can be
downloaded from the XSA web page.



Yours sincerely,

XMM-Newton SOC
