In their paper, the authors release accurate photometric redshifts for 1692 counterparts to Chandra sources in the central square degree of the Cosmic Evolution Survey (COSMOS) field. The availability of a large training set of spectroscopic redshifts that extends to faint magnitudes enabled photometric redshifts comparable to the highest quality results presently available for normal galaxies. The authors demonstrate that morphologically extended, faint X-ray sources without optical variability are more accurately described by a library of normal galaxies (corrected for emission lines) than by active galactic nucleus (AGN) dominated templates, even if these sources have AGNlike X-ray luminosities. Preselecting the library on the bases of the source properties allowed them to reach an accuracy sigma[Delta-z/(1+Z_spec)] ~ 0.015 with a fraction of outliers of 5.8% for the entire Chandra-COSMOS sample. These Chandra sources are not contained in this table but are available in the HEASARC table CCOSMPHOTZ). In addition, in this study the authors released revised photometric redshifts for the 1735 optical counterparts of the XMM-detected sources over the entire 2 deg² of COSMOS, and these are the sources listed in the present table. For 248 sources, their updated photometric redshift differs from the previous release by Delta-z > 0.2. These changes are predominantly due to the inclusion of newly available deep H-band^ photometry (H_AB = 24 mag). The authors illustrate once again the importance of a spectroscopic training sample and how an assumption about the nature of a source together, with the number and the depth of the available bands, influences the accuracy of the photometric redshifts determined for AGN. These considerations should be kept in mind when defining the observational strategies of upcoming large surveys targeting AGNs, such as eROSITA at X-ray energies and the Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder Evolutionary Map of the Universe in the radio band. This table contains the photometric redshifts and related quantities for 1735 XMM-Newton sources over the entire 2 square degrees of the COSMOS field. Notice that in the original as-published paper no positional information was provided. The HEASARC has assumed that the source numbers used in the present catalog are in the same source numbering scheme as used by Cappelluti et al. (2009, A&A, 497, 635, the XMM-Newton Wide-Field Survey in the COSMOS Field Point-like X-ray Source Catalog, available at the HEASARC as the XMMCOSMOS table) and thus obtained the positions and (position-based) names corresponding to these X-ray sources from the latter. This table was created by the HEASARC in November 2011 based on an electronic version of Table 5 from the reference paper which was obtained from the ApJ website.

COSMOS is an astronomical survey designed to probe the formation and evolution of galaxies as a function of cosmic time (redshift) and large scale structural environment. The survey covers a 2 square degree equatorial field with imaging by most of the major space-based telescopes (Hubble, Spitzer, GALEX, XMM, Chandra) and a number of large ground based telescopes (Subaru, VLA, ESO-VLT, UKIRT, NOAO, CFHT, and others). Over 2 million galaxies are detected, spanning 75% of the age of the universe.

In these catalogues, source detection and multi-wavelength photometry is performed for 1.7 million sources in the 2 square degree COSMOS field. Approximately 966,000 of these sources are measured with all available broad-band data using both traditional aperture photometry and a new profile-fitting photometric tool, The Farmer, developed by the COSMOS team. Photometric redshifts are computed for all sources in each catalogue using two independent photometric redshift codes, LePhare and EAZY. At i < 21, sources have sub-percent photometric redshift precision and even the faintest sources at 25 < i < 27 reach a photometric redshift accuracy of 5%.

The COSMOS2015 catalogue contains precise photometric red-shifts and stellar masses for more than half a million objects over the 2 deg^2 COSMOS field. Including YJHKs images from the UltraVISTA-DR2 survey, Y-band from Subaru/Hyper-Suprime-Cam and infrared data from SPLASH Spitzer Legacy program, this near-infrared selected catalogue is highly optimised for the study of galaxy evolution and environments in the early Universe.

This table contains the redshift catalog for the X-ray sources detected in the Chandra Deep Field-North (CDF-N). The catalog for the CDF-N includes redshifts from previous work. The authors have extended the redshift information for the full sample using photometric redshifts. The goal of the OPTX Project is to use this survey, together with the Chandra Large-Area Synoptic X-Ray Survey (CLASXS) and the Chandra Lockman Area North Survey (CLANS), which are among the most spectroscopically complete surveys to date, to analyze the effect of spectral type on the shape and evolution of the X-ray luminosity functions and to compare the optical spectral types with the X-ray spectral properties. The CLANS and CLASXS surveys bridge the gap between the ultra-deep pencil-beam surveys, such as the Chandra Deep Fields, and the shallower, very large-area surveys. This table also contains updated optical and infrared photometric data for the X-ray sources in the CDF-N. Typical photometric uncertainties are given in Section 3.6 of the reference paper (Trouille et al. 2008). The X-ray information for the sources detected in the CDF-N 2-megasecond exposure which was published in Alexander et al. (2003, AJ, 126, 539) is available as the HEASARC CHANDFN2MS table, while the earlier catalog which listed information about optical and infrared counterparts (Barger et al. 2003, AJ, 126, 632) is available as the HEASARC CDFN2MSOID table. This table was created by the HEASARC in January 2009 based on the electronic version of Table 13 from the paper which was obtained from the ApJ web site.

Over 2 million galaxies are detected, spanning 75% of the age of the universe.This is version 2.1 of the C-COSMOS Bright Source Catalog which consists of 1761 sources detected at uniform confidence in the 0.5 - 7 keV band of the Chandra-COSMOS survey. Details of the survey and initial results are found in the C-COSMOS catalog paper (Elvis et al. 2009, Paper I). The methods used to detect sources and generate the catalog are described in detail in Puccetti et al. 2009 (Paper II). Nearly 100%-complete multiwavelength source identification is discussed in Civano et al. 2009 (Paper III).

Clusters of galaxies in most of the previous catalogs have redshifts z <= 0.3. Using the photometric redshifts of galaxies from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Data Release 6 (SDSS DR6), the authors identify 39,716 clusters in the redshift range 0.05 < z < 0.6 with more than eight luminous (M_r <= -21) member galaxies. Cluster redshifts are estimated accurately with an uncertainty of less than 0.022. The contamination rate of member galaxies is found to be roughly 20%, and the completeness of member galaxy detection reaches ~90%. Monte Carlo simulations show that the cluster detection rate is more than 90% for massive (M_200 > 2 x 10¹⁴ M_sun, where M_200 is the total mass within the radius in which the mean mass density is 200 times the critical cosmic mass density) clusters of z <= 0.42. The false detection rate is ~5%. The authors obtain the richness, the summed luminosity, and the gross galaxy number within the determined radius for identified clusters. They are tightly related to the X-ray luminosity and temperature of the clusters. Cluster mass is related to the richness and summed luminosity with M_200 ~ R^{(1.90+/-0.04)} and M_200 ~ L_r^{(1.64+/-0.03)}, respectively. In addition, 790 new candidate X-ray clusters are found by cross-identification of these clusters with the source list of the ROSAT X-ray All-Sky Survey.
