Be–X-ray binaries and candidates

We present a compilative catalogue of Be–X-ray binaries and candidates in the Galaxy and in the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds. This catalogue contains 130 sources and provides information on names and spectral types of optical components, distances, on spin characteristics of neutron stars and on orbital and X-ray properties of binary systems. We give brief comments on each object and provide necessary references to original data.
