Keywords: galaxies: active - quasars; X-rays: general - radio sources: general
Description:
The cross-correlation of the source list from the ROSAT All-Sky Survey
with the 5 GHz Green Bank survey yields a list of 2127 objects. About
two thirds of them are optically unidentified. The majority of the
objects with known optical counterparts are quasars and radio
galaxies, most of them detected in X-rays for the first time. In this
paper we present a list of the previously optically identified objects
with their main characteristics and discuss their general (bulk)
properties. We find strong correlations between luminosities in the
radio, optical, and X-ray bands which differ for quasars and radio
galaxies.
