  All 543 pointed observations of the ROSAT High Resolution Imager (HRI) with
exposure times higher than 50 sec in a field of 10 deg x 10 deg covering the
Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) were analyzed. A catalogue was produced containing
397 X-ray sources with their properties measured by the HRI. The list was
cross-correlated with the ROSAT Position Sensitive Propotional Counter (PSPC)
source catalogue presented by Haberl & Pietsch (1999), the SIMBAD data base,
and the TYCHO catalogue. 138 HRI sources are contained in the PSPC catalogue.
The spatial resolution of the HRI was higher than that of the PSPC and the
source position could be determined with errors mostly smaller than 15 arcsec
which are dominated by systematic attitude errors. 94 HRI sources were
identified with known objects based on their positional coincidence and X-ray
properties. The catalogue contains 39 foreground stars, 24 supernova remnants
(SNRs), five supersoft sources (SSSs), nine X-ray binaries (XBs), and nine AGN
well known from literature. Another eight sources were identified with known
candidates for these source classes. Additional 21 HRI sources are suggested in
the present work as candidates for SNR, X-ray binary in the LMC, or background
AGN because of their extent, hardness ratios, X-ray to optical flux ratio, or
flux variability.
