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.

This table is the Chandra Deep Field North 1-Megasecond Catalog. It lists point sources detected in an extremely deep X-ray survey (1 Ms) of the Hubble Deep Field North (HDF-N) and its environs (~450 square arcminutes) which has been performed with the Advanced CCD Imaging Spectrometer on board the Chandra X-Ray Observatory. This is one of the two deepest X-ray surveys ever performed; for point sources near the aim point, it reaches 0.5 - 2.0 keV and 2 - 8 keV flux limits of ~3 x 10^-17 and ~2 x 10^-16 ergs cm-2 s-1, respectively. 370 distinct point sources have been detected: 360 in the full (0.5 - 8.0 keV) band, 325 in the soft (0.5 - 2.0 keV) band, 265 in the hard (2 - 8 keV) band, and 145 in the ultrahard (4 - 8 keV) band. Source positions are accurate to within 0.6 - 1.7 arcseconds (at ~90% confidence), depending mainly on the off-axis angle. Source densities of 7100 (+1100, -940) deg^-2 (at 4.2 x 10^-17 ergs cm^-2 s^-1) and 4200 (+670, -580) deg^-2 (at 3.8 x 10^-16 ergs cm^-2 s^-1) are observed in the soft and hard bands, respectively. This online catalog was created by the HEASARC in March 2002 based on a machine-readable version of Table 3 of Brandt et al. (2001) that was obtained from the Astronomical Journal website.

This table contains the first results of the authors' optical spectroscopy program aimed to provide redshifts and identifications for the X-ray sources in the Extended Chandra Deep Field South (ECDFS). A total of 339 sources (listed herein) were targeted using the IMACS spectrograph at the Magellan telescopes and the VIMOS spectrograph at the VLT. The authors have measured redshifts for 186 X-ray sources, including archival data and a literature search. They find that the active galactic nucleus (AGN) host galaxies have on average redder rest-frame optical colors than nonactive galaxies, and that they live mostly in the "green valley." The dependence of the fraction of AGNs that are obscured on both luminosity and redshift is confirmed at high significance and the observed AGN spatial density is compared with the expectations from existing luminosity functions. These AGNs show a significant difference in the mid-IR to X-ray flux ratio for obscured and unobscured AGNs, which can be explained by the effects of dust self-absorption on the former. This difference is larger for lower luminosity sources, which is consistent with the dust opening angle depending on AGN luminosity. This table was created by the HEASARC in April 2009 based on the electronic version of Table 2 from the Treister et al. (2009) paper obtained from the ApJ web site, except for the source positions which were taken from Virani et al. (2006). The full table from the latter paper is also available in Browse (the ECDFSCXO table). This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .

This table contains the results of a program to acquire high-quality optical spectra of X-ray sources detected in the Extended-Chandra Deep Field-South (E-CDF-S) and its central 2 Ms area. New spectroscopic redshifts, up to z = 4, are measured for 283 counterparts to Chandra sources with deep exposures (t ~ 2-9 hr per pointing) using multi-slit facilities on both VLT (VIMOS) and Keck (DEIMOS), thus bringing the total number of spectroscopically identified X-ray sources to over 500 in this survey field. Since their new spectroscopic identifications are mainly associated with X-ray sources in the shallower 250 ks coverage, the authors provide a comprehensive catalog of X-ray sources detected in the E-CDF-S including the optical and near-infrared counterparts, determined by a likelihood routine, and redshifts (both spectroscopic and photometric), that incorporate published spectroscopic catalogs, thus resulting in a final sample with a high fraction (80%) of X-ray sources having secure identifications. The authors demonstrate the remarkable coverage of the luminosity-redshift plane now accessible from their data while emphasizing the detection of active galactic nuclei (AGNs) that contribute to the faint end of the luminosity function (L_0.5-8keV ~ 10⁴³ - 10⁴⁴ erg s^-1) at 1.5 <~ z <~ 3, including those with and without broad emission lines. This redshift catalog includes 17 type-2 QSOs at 1 <~ z <~ 3.5 that significantly increases (doubles) such samples. Based on thei deepest (9 hr) VLT/VIMOS observation, the authors identify "elusive" optically faint galaxies (R_mag ~ 25) at z ~ 2 - 3 based upon the detection of interstellar absorption lines (e.g., O II+Si IV, C II], C IV); in their paper, they highlight one such case, an absorption-line galaxy at z = 3.208 having no obvious signs of an AGN in its optical spectrum. In addition, they determine accurate distances to eight galaxy groups with extended X-ray emission detected both by Chandra and XMM-Newton. This online catalog was created by the HEASARC in November 2010 based on a machine-readable version of Table 4 from the paper which was obtained from the ApJ website.

The Chandra Deep Field North (CDFN) 2-Megasecond Catalog contains the point sources found in the ~2 Megasecond (Ms) exposure of the Chandra Deep Field North, currently the deepest X-ray observation of the universe in the 0.5 -8.0 keV band. Five hundred and three (503) X-ray sources were detected over an ~448 square arcminute area in up to seven X-ray bands. Twenty (20) of these X-ray sources lie in the central ~5.3 square arcminute Hubble Deep Field North (13600 (+3800,-3000) sources/deg²). The on-axis sensitivity limits are ~2.5x10^-17 ergs/cm²/s (0.5 - 2.0 keV) and 1.4x10^-16 ergs/cm²/s (2 - 8 keV). Source positions are determined using matched-filter and centroiding techniques; the median positional uncertainty is ~0.3". The X-ray colors of the detected sources indicate a broad variety of source types, although absorbed AGN (including a small number of possible Compton-thick sources) are clearly the dominant type. The average backgrounds in the 0.5 - 2.0 keV and 2 - 8 keV bands are 0.056 and 0.135 counts Ms^-1 pixel^-1, respectively. The background count distributions are very similar to Poisson distributions. This 2 Ms exposure is approximately photon limited in all seven X-ray bands for regions close to the aim point. This observation does not suffer from source confusion within ~6 arcminutes of the aim point. This table was created by the HEASARC in April 2004 based on CDS catalog table J/AJ/126/539/cdfn.dat.

The Chandra Deep Field South (CDFS) 1-Megasecond Catalog is the source catalog obtained from a 942 kilosecond exposure, using the Advanced CCD Imaging Spectrometer (ACIS-I) on the Chandra X-ray Observatory. Eleven individual pointings made between 1999 October and 2000 December were combined to generate the final image used for object detection. Catalog generation proceeded simultaneously using two different methods: a method of the authors' own design using a modified version of the SExtractor algorithm, and a wavelet transform technique developed specifically for Chandra observations. The detection threshold was set in order to have less than 10 spurious sources, as assessed by extensive simulations. The catalog as published was subdivided into four sections: the primary list consisting of objects common to the two detection methods, two secondary lists containing sources which were detected by either the SExtractor algorithm alone or by the wavelet technique alone, and the fourth list consisting of possible diffuse or extended sources. The flux limits at the aimpoint for the soft (0.5 - 2 keV) and hard (2 - 10 keV) bands are 5.5 x 10^-17 erg/s/cm² and 4.5 x 10^-16 erg/s/cm², respectively. The total number of sources is 346; out of them, 307 were detected in the 0.5 - 2 keV band, and 251 in the 2 - 10 keV band. Optical identifications are also presented for the catalogued sources. The primary optical data are R band imaging from VLT/FORS1 to a depth of R ~ 26.5 (Vega). In regions of the field not covered by the VLT/FORS1 deep imaging, the authors use R-band data obtained with the Wide Field Imager (WFI) on the ESO-MPI 2.2 m telescope, as part of the ESO Imaging Survey (EIS), which cover the entire X-ray survey. The FORS1/Chandra offsets are small, ~1 arcsecond. Coordinate cross-correlation finds 85% of the Chandra sources covered by FORS1 R to have counterparts within the 3-sigma error box (>~1.5 arcseconds, depending on off-axis angle and X-ray signal-to-noise). The unidentified fraction of sources, approximately 10% - 15%, is close to the limit expected from the observed X-ray flux to R-band ratio distribution for the identified sample. This online catalog was created by the HEASARC in June 2002 based on machine-readable versions of 2, 3 and 4 of Giacconi et al. (2002) that were obtained from the CDS.

This table contains the X-ray source catalogs for the ~7 Ms exposure of the Chandra Deep Field-South (CDF-S), which covers a total area of 484.2 square arcminutes. Utilizing WAVDETECT for initial source detection and ACIS Extract for photometric extraction and significance assessment, the authors have created a main source catalog (entries with source_sample = 'M' in this HEASARC table) containing 1,008 sources that are detected in up to three X-ray bands: 0.5-7.0 keV, 0.5-2.0 keV, and 2-7 keV. A supplementary source catalog entries with source_sample = 'S' in this HEASARC table) is also provided, including 47 lower-significance sources that have bright (K_s <~ 23^m) near-infrared (NIR) counterparts. The authors have identified multiwavelength counterparts for 992 (98.4%) of the 1,008 main-catalog sources, and they have collected redshifts for 986 of these sources, including 653 spectroscopic redshifts and 333 photometric redshifts. Based on the X-ray and multiwavelength properties, the authors have identified 711 active galactic nuclei (AGNs) from the main-catalog sources. Compared to the previous ~4 Ms CDF-S catalogs, 291 of the main-catalog sources are new detections. The observations utilized in this survey have achieved unprecedented X-ray sensitivity with average flux limits over the central ~1 arcmin² region of ~1.9 x 10^-17, 6.4 x 10^-18, and 2.7 x 10^-17 erg cm^-2 s^-1 in the three X-ray bands, respectively. In the reference paper, the authors provide cumulative number-count measurements observing, for the first time, that normal galaxies start to dominate the X-ray source population at the faintest 0.5-2.0 keV flux levels. The highest X-ray source density reaches ~50,500 deg^-2, and 47% +/- 4% of these sources are AGNs (~23,900 deg^-2). The authors adopted a binomial no-source probability value, P_B < 0.007 as the criterion to prune their initial candidate source list and generate a main source catalog, which includes 1,008 sources with a ~97% multiwavelength-identification rate. This adopted P_B threshold will have inevitably rejected real X-ray sources. To recover some of these real sources, the authors created a supplementary source catalog that contains lower-significance X-ray sources that have bright optical/NIR counterparts; the chance of a bright optical/NIR source being associated with a spurious X-ray detection is quite small. A total of 47 candidate CDF-S sources having 0.007 <= P_B < 0.1 are associated with bright, K_s <= 23^m, TENIS sources, where the false-match rate is only 1.7%, and these 47 sources constitute the supplementary catalog. A Galactic column density of N_H,Gal = 8.8 * 10¹⁹ cm^-2 along the line of sight to the CDF-S is assumed in this study. All quoted magnitudes are in the AB system. A cosmology with H₀ = 67.8 km s^-1 Mpc^-1, Omega_M = 0.308, and Omega_Lambda = 0.692 (Planck Collaboration et al. 2016 values) is used to calculate luminosities. This HEASARC table contains the 1,008 sources from the main Chandra source catalog (these entries are identified by the HEASARC-created source_sample parameter being set to 'M' in this table) and the 47 lower-significance sources from the supplementary NIR-bright Chandra source catalog (these entries are identified by the HEASARC-created source_sample parameter being set to 'S' in this table). This table thus has 1,055 entries. This table was created by the HEASARC in March 2017 based upon electronic versions of Tables 4 and 5, the 'Main Chandra Source Catalog' and the 'Supplementary NIR-Bright Chandra Source Catalog', respectively, which were obtained from the ApJS website. Some of the values for the name parameter in the HEASARC's implementation of this table were corrected in April 2018. This is a service provided by

This table contains point-source catalogs for the ~2 Ms exposure of the Chandra Deep Field-South (CDF-S) this is one of the two most sensitive X-ray surveys ever performed. The survey covers an area of ~436 arcmin² and reaches on-axis sensitivity limits of ~1.9 x 10^-17 and ~1.3 x 10^-16 erg cm^-2 s^-1 for the 0.5-2.0 and 2-8 keV bands, respectively. Four hundred and sixty-two X-ray point sources (source_sample = 'Main CDF-S' in this table) are detected in at least one of three X-ray bands that were searched; 135 of these sources are new compared to the previous ~1 Ms CDF-S detections. Source positions are determined using centroid and matched-filter techniques; the median positional uncertainty is ~0.36". The X-ray-to-optical flux ratios of the newly detected sources indicate a variety of source types; ~55% of them appear to be active galactic nuclei, while ~45% appear to be starburst and normal galaxies. This table contains, in addition to the main Chandra catalog, the supplementary catalog of 86 X-ray sources (source_sample = 'CDF-S + E-CDF-S' in this table) in the ~2 Ms CDF-S footprint that was created by merging the ~250 ks Extended Chandra Deep Field-South with the CDF-S; this approach provides additional sensitivity in the outer portions of the CDF-S. This table also contains a second supplementary catalog (source_sample = 'Optically Bright' in this table) of 30 X-ray sources which was constructed by matching lower significance X-ray sources to bright optical counterparts (R < 23.8); the majority of these sources appear to be starburst and normal galaxies. The total number of sources in this table, which contains the main and 2 supplementary catalogs, is thus 578. Optical R-band counterparts and basic optical and infrared photometry are provided for the X-ray sources in the main and supplementary catalogs. The authors also include existing spectroscopic redshifts for 224 of the X-ray sources. The average backgrounds in the 0.5-2.0 and 2-8 keV bands are 0.066 and 0.167 counts Ms^-1 pixel^-1, respectively, and the background counts follow Poisson distributions. The effective exposure times and sensitivity limits of the CDF-S are now comparable to those of the ~2 Ms Chandra Deep Field-North (CDF-N). In their paper, the authors also present cumulative number counts for the main catalog and compare the results to those for the CDF-N. The soft-band number counts for these two fields agree well with each other at fluxes higher than ~2 x 10^-16 erg cm^-2 s^-1, while the CDF-S number counts are up to ~25% smaller than those for the CDF-N at fluxes below ~2 x 10^-16 erg cm^-2 s^-1 in the soft band and ~2 x 10^-15 erg cm^-2 s^-1 in the hard band, suggesting small field-to-field variations. This table was created by the HEASARC in December 2008 based on the electronic version of Tables 2, 5 and 6 from the reference paper which were obtained from the ApJ web site.

This table contains the X-ray point-source catalog produced from the Chandra Advanced CCD Imaging Spectrometer (ACIS-I) observations of the combined ~3.2 deg² DEEP2 (XDEEP2) survey fields, which consist of four ~ 0.7 - 1.1 deg² fields. The combined total exposures across all four XDEEP2 fields range from ~ 10 ks to 1.1 Ms. The authors detect X-ray point sources in both the individual ACIS-I observations and the overlapping regions in the merged (stacked) images. They find a total of 2976 unique X-ray sources within the survey area with an expected false-source contamination of ~ 30 sources (<~ 1%). In their paper, the authors present the combined log N-log S distribution of sources detected across the XDEEP2 survey fields and find good agreement with the Extended Chandra Deep Field and Chandra-COSMOS fields to f_(X,0.5-2keV)_ ~ 2 x 10^-16 erg cm^-1 s^-1. Given the large survey area of XDEEP2, they additionally place relatively strong constraints on the log N-log S distribution at high fluxes (f_(X,0.5-2keV) ~ 3 x 10^-14 erg cm^-1 s^-1), and find a small systematic offset (a factor ~ 1.5) toward lower source numbers in this regime, when compared to smaller area surveys. The number counts observed in XDEEP2 are in close agreement with those predicted by X-ray background synthesis models. Additionally, the authors present a Bayesian-style method for associating the X-ray sources with optical photometric counterparts in the DEEP2 catalog (complete to R_AB < 25.2) and find that 2126 (~ 71.4% +/- 2.8%) of the 2976 X-ray sources presented here have a secure optical counterpart with a <~ 6% contamination fraction. The present table provides the DEEP2 optical source properties (e.g., magnitude, redshift) as part of the X-ray-optical counterpart catalog.
