In this paper, we report on the fourth soft gamma-ray source catalog obtained with the IBIS gamma-ray imager on board the INTEGRAL satellite. The scientific data set is based on more than 70 Ms of high-quality observations performed during the first five and a half years of the Core Program and public observations. Compared to previous IBIS surveys, this catalog includes a substantially increased coverage of extragalactic fields, and comprises more than 700 high-energy sources detected in the energy range 17–100 keV, including both transients and faint persistent objects that can only be revealed with longer exposure times. A comparison is provided with the latest Swift/BAT survey results.

Magnetic White Dwarfs (2015, background): “The IPs constituted a minor group of harder X-ray sources and remained elusive objects until the recent hard X-ray surveys conducted by the INTEGRAL/IBIS and Swift/BAT satellites (Bird et al. 2010; Baumgartner et al. 2013).”
Be/X-ray binaries (2011, background): “About one third of the the X/γ-ray sources in the 4th INTEGRAL catalogue (Bird et al. 2010) are thought to be X-ray binaries, of which half are believed to contain early-type companions.”
The 511 keV emission from positron annihilation in the Galaxy (2010, background): “Notice also that in the 4th IBIS source catalogue (Bird et al., 2010) there is no strong evidence for a LMXB distribution asymmetry in the Galactic plane.”
THE FIRST CATALOG OF ACTIVE GALACTIC NUCLEI DETECTED BY THE FERMI LARGE AREA TELESCOPE (2010, background): “…Swift-BAT and INTEGRAL-IBIS instruments have been conducting surveys at hard X-ray energies; the most recent catalogs are the fourth IBIS catalog (Bird et al. 2010) of 723 sources detected at 17–100 keV and the 54 month Palermo BAT catalog (Cusumano et al. 2010) of 1049 sources78 detected at…”
