Listed in NASA Data Portal
The Chandra Deep Field North (CDFN) 2-Megasecond (2Ms) Optical and IR Catalog is an optical and near-infrared catalog for the X-ray sources in the 2Ms Chandra observation of the Hubble Deep Field North region.
Description
It has high-quality multicolor imaging data for all 503 X-ray point sources in the X-ray-selected catalog and reliable spectroscopic redshifts for 284. The authors have spectroscopically identified six high-redshift (z > 1) type II quasars (L<sub>2-8keV</sub> > 10<sup>44</sup> ergs/s) in their sample.
The spectroscopic completeness for the R <= 24 sources is 87%. The spectroscopic redshift distribution shows two broad redshift spikes that have clearly grown over those originally seen in the 1Ms exposure. The spectroscopically identified extragalactic sources already comprise 75% of the measured 2-8 keV light.

Redshift slices versus 2-8 keV flux show that an impressive 54% of the measured 2-8 keV light arises from sources at z < 1 and 68% from sources at z < 2. The X-ray sample is presented in Alexander et al. (2003, AJ, 126, 539, hereafter ABB2003) and in <a href="cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/J/AJ/126/539">CDS Catalog <J/AJ/126/539></a>, and is also available in the HEASARC Browse system as the CHANDFN2MS table. The optical imaging data consist of Johnson B, Johnson V, Cousins R, Cousins I, and Sloan z' observations obtained with the Subaru prime-focus camera Suprime-Cam on the Subaru 8.2m telescope during February-April of 2001 and 2002.
This table was created by the HEASARC in April 2004 based on <a href="cdsarc.cds.unistra.fr/ftp/cats/J/AJ/126/632/table1a">CDS Catalog J/AJ/126/632/table1a</a>.dat. This is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .
