VizieR Online Data Catalog: Effects of metallicity on HMXB formation (Ponnada+, 2020)

We expand a set of 25 blue compact dwarfs (BCDs) studied in Brorby et al. (2014MNRAS.441.2346B), by selecting BCDs over all metallicities up to a distance of 60Mpc. Cross-referencing the BCD population defined by Izotov, Thuan & Stasinska (2007ApJ...662...15I, Cat. J/ApJ/662/15) and the NED catalogue with the Chandra archive, we find a total of 21 additional BCDs with Chandra observations, GALEX observations, and published metallicities. We add this to our sample for an overall sample size of 46 BCDs.

For the final sample, we determine SFRs using GALEX (UV) data following the methods used in previous studies, Brorby et al. (2014MNRAS.441.2346B) and Brorby et al. (2016MNRAS.457.4081B). We obtain metallicities from published values, all of them obtained through the direct-temperature method, with an exception. The distance and metallicity measurements from reported values in the literature are listed in Table A1. X-ray source photometry information is listed in Table A2 and our UV and IR measurements and corresponding SFRs are detailed in Table A3.
