Notes. Column 1: Shorthand identifier (FXRT #) used throughout this work. Column 2: X-ray transient identifier (XRT date), plus previous name when available. Columns 3–5: Chandra observation ID, exposure time in units of ks, and date. Column 6: T90 duration, which measures the time over which the event emits the central 90% (i.e., from 5% to 95%) of its total measured counts, in units of ks. Columns 7 and 8: Right ascension and declination in J2000 equatorial coordinates. Column 9: Instrumental off-axis angle of the FXRT candidates, with respect to the Chandra aimpoint, in units of arcminutes. Column 10: Aperture-corrected, observation-averaged 0.5–7.0 keV flux inferred from the CSC2, in cgs units. Column 11: Estimated 2σ X-ray positional uncertainty from the CSC2, in units of arcseconds; as demonstrated in Bauer et al. (2017), this can be improved by up to ≈40% when sufficient optical/X-ray cross-matches are available. Column 12: Hardness ratio (HR) and 1σ uncertainty, defined as HR=(H−S)/(H+S), where H = 2–7 keV and S = 0.5–2 keV energy bands, using the Bayesian estimation of Park et al. (2006). Column 13: Approximate signal-to-noise ratio (S/N).
