Identification of X-ray Point Sources and Study on the Nature of 62 X-ray Globular Cluster Candidates in M31 Zhou Fan, Jun Ma, Xu Zhou, Jiansheng Chen, Zhaoji Jiang, Zhenyu Wu Our work contains 2 parts: 1. Identify the 8 unknown X-ray Sources. 2.Study the optical nature of 62 GC X-ray sources. The Data of X-ray Point Sources in M31 Trinchieri Fabbiano(1991) presented the positions of 108 Einstein X-ray sources Primini, Forman Jones(1993) listed the positions of 86 ROSAT HRI X-ray sources. Supper et al. (2001) 2nd ROSAT detection of M31, 7 GC X-ray sources. Kong et al. (2002) (Chandra ACIS)204 X-ray point sources. Kaaret (2002) (Chandra HRC)143 X-ray point sources. Williams et al. (2004) (Chandra HRC)166 X-ray point sources. Trudolyubov Priedhorsky (2004), (XMM-Newton Chandra ) 43 GC X-ray sources. The BATC Optical Observation of M31 Using 60/90cm f/3 Schmidt telescope in XINGLONG Station of NAOC, CAS. 2048 X 2048(pixels) CCD. Field of view ~ 58’X 58’ , 1 pixel ~ 1.67”. Using 13 intermediate-band filters (BATC03 - BATC15) covering from 4,000~10,000 ?. The observation of M31 was from Nov. 15th, 1995 to Dec. 16th, 1999. Obtained 8 new X-ray sources We compared the BATC data and the X-ray data of M31 in 3 pixels(~5”) and found 8 new X-ray sources unidentified. Identification of 8 New GC X-ray Sources Using the 49 GC X-ray sources’ SEDs as templates, we compared them with the 8 SEDs. Combined the FWHMs, we have identified 4 new GC X-ray sources. Criterion:χ2 18.1(DOF=12,Q 10%) FWHM source FWHM star 4 new GC X-ray sources. 49 GC X-ray sources (circles) and 4 new GC X-ray sources (boxes)and 9 are out the BATC M31 Field.
