X-ray Surveys with Space Observatory Khyung Hee University Kim MinBae Park Jisook
Why X-ray Survey? Chandra & XMM-Newton Survey with Chandra X-ray Observatory Survey with XMM-Newton eROSITA ASTRO-H
To detect X-ray emission from very hot regions of the Universe. The minimizing quasar and galaxy photometric redshift errors and extending the sample to higher redshift. The X-ray Surveys make to find obscured AGNs and other AGNs with weak optical signatures. Multi-wavelength follow-up of detected X-ray sources is crucial to understand the properties of the observed objects.
Two powerful and active X-ray missions. NASA : Chandra X-Ray Observatory ESA : X-Ray Multi-Mirror (XMM) Newton
Chandra Deep Field South 1Ms Survey (Giacconi et al. 2002) 2Ms Survey (Luo et al. 2008) 4Ms Survey (Xue et al. 2012) Main Chandra Source Catalog RA 3h32m28.0s Dec -27deg48 30.0 (J2000) 464.5 arcmin , 3.872Ms 740 sources (75% AGN) 300 new sources (2Ms->4Ms) (65%: AGN,35%: normal & starburst galaxies,1% stars) 0 < z < 8 97% have multi-wavelength counterparts (optical/near- IR/IR/radio)
All-wavelength Extended Groth strip International Survey X-ray catalogue for AIGES (Laird et al. 2009) The Extended Groth Strip (EGS: RA=14h 17m, Dec= +52deg 30 , small region in the constellation Ursa Major), 0.67deg , 1.8Ms 1325 sources Optical(76%), IR(94%, DEEP2,CFHTLS, Spitzer/IRAC surveys of the EGS)

(German+Russian) eRASS (eROSITA All-sky survey) The expection of 3 million AGNs in soft band - To detect the hot intergalactic medium of 50~100 thousand galaxy clusters and groups and hot gas in filaments between clusters to map out the large scale structure in the universe for the study of cosmic structure evolution - To study in detail the physics of galactic X-ray source populations, like pre-main sequence stars, supernova remnants and X-ray binaries.
