We present the source catalog of a new Chandra ACIS-I observation of NGC 300 obtained as part of the Chandra Local Volume Survey. Our 63 ks exposure covers ~88% of the D25 isophote (R~6.3 kpc) and yields a catalog of 95 X-ray point sources…

We present comprehensive X-ray point source catalogs of NGC~55, NGC~2403, and NGC~4214 as part of the Chandra Local Volume Survey. The combined archival observations have effective exposure times of 56.5 ks, 190 ks, and 79 ks for NGC~55,…

We present Chandra studies of the X-ray binary (XRB) populations in the bulge and ring regions of the ring galaxy NGC 1291. We detect 169 X-ray point sources in the galaxy, 75 in the bulge and 71 in the ring, utilizing the four available…

In this paper we present the source list for 3 Chandra observations of the Local Group galaxy M33. The observations are centered on the nucleus and on the star forming region NGC 604. We detect a total of 261 sources in an area of \~0.2…

We present results from a 34 ks Chandra/ACIS-S observation of the nearby (d=3.1 Mpc) lenticular galaxy NGC 5102, previously shown to have an unusually low X-ray luminosity. We detect eleven X-ray point sources within the the $D_{25}$…

This study represents the most sensitive Chandra X-ray point source catalogue of M31. Using 133 publicly available Chandra ACIS-I/S observations totalling ~1 Ms, we detected 795 X-ray sources in the bulge, northeast, and southwest fields of…

We present the results of a Chandra/HST study of the point sources of the NGC 4472. We identify 144 X-ray sources, 72 with HST matches. The optical data show 1102 sources, 829 with globular cluster colors. Thirty matches are found - likely…

We present new Chandra constraints on the X-ray luminosity functions (XLFs) of X-ray binary (XRB) populations, and their scaling relations, for a sample of 38 nearby galaxies (D = 3.4-29 Mpc). Our galaxy sample is drawn primarily from the…

We present a study of X-ray source populations in M87, the cD galaxy of the Virgo cluster, using 12 archival {\it Chandra} observations with a total exposure of $\sim$680 ks spanning about a decade. A total of 346 point-like sources are…

X-ray point sources in galaxies are dominated by X-ray binaries (XRBs) that are variables or transients and whether their variability would alter the X-ray luminosity functions (XLF) is still in debate. Here we report on NGC 7331 as an…

By analyzing the Chandra ACIS S3 data we studied the X-ray properties of the low-mass and high-mass X-ray binary populations in the nearby spiral galaxy NGC 5055. A total of 43 X-ray point sources were detected within the 2 effective radii,…

We present an analysis of the compact X-ray source population in the Seyfert~2 galaxy NGC 1068, imaged with Chandra. We find a total of 84 compact sources, of which 66 are projected onto the galactic disk of NGC 1068. Spectra of the…

As part of our campaign to determine the nature of the various source populations of the low-luminosity globular cluster X-ray sources, we have obtained a Chandra X-ray Observatory ACIS-S3 image of the globular cluster NGC 6440. We detect…

We present the X-ray point source population in the nearby Virgo elliptical galaxy NGC 4636 from 3 Chandra/ACIS observations, totaling 193 ks, taken over 3 years. Using wavelet decomposition, we detect 318 point sources. Here, we use a…

We have studied the X-ray point source population of Centaurus A (NGC 5128) using data from four archival CHANDRA observations. We detected 272 point-like X-ray sources within a radius of 10 arcmin from the centre. Approximately half of…

In this paper we discuss the X-ray point source population of NGC 4472, an elliptical galaxy in the Virgo cluster. We used recent deep Chandra data combined with archival Chandra data to obtain a 380 ks exposure time. We find 238 X-ray…

We present the X-ray source catalog for the Chandra monitoring observations of the elliptical galaxy, NGC 4649. The galaxy has been observed with Chandra ACIS-S3 in six separate pointings, reaching a total exposure of 299 ks. There are 501…

Based on the recently completed {\it Chandra}/ACIS survey of X-ray point sources in nearby galaxies, we study the X-ray luminosity functions (XLFs) for X-ray point sources in different types of galaxies and the statistical properties of…

We present point-source catalogs for the ~2 Ms exposure of the Chandra Deep Field-South (CDF-S); this is one of the two most-sensitive X-ray surveys ever performed. The survey covers an area of ~436 arcmin^2 and reaches on-axis sensitivity…

The central $2\times0.8$ deg$^2$ region of our Galaxy contains $\sim10,000$ X-ray point sources that were detected by a series of Chandra observations over the last two decades. However, the limited bandpass of Chandra below 8 keV hampered…
