Chandra Deep Field North 1-Megasecond Catalog
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<sup>-17</sup> and ~2 x 10<sup>-16</sup> 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<sup>-2</sup> (at 4.2 x 10<sup>-17</sup> ergs cm<sup>-2</sup> s<sup>-1</sup>) and 4200 (+670, -580) deg<sup>-2</sup> (at 3.8 x 10<sup>-16</sup> ergs cm<sup>-2</sup> s<sup>-1</sup>) 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 is a service provided by NASA HEASARC .
