Spitzer sources in SWIRE/XMM/ELAIS-S1 field

Listed in IVOA Registry (Virtual Observatory)

We present a catalog of optical spectroscopic identifications of sources detected by Spitzer at 3.6 or 24um down to ~10 and ~280uJy, respectively, in the SWIRE/XMM-Newton/ELAIS-S1 field and classified via line width analysis and diagnostic diagrams.

Description

A total of 1376 sources down to R~24.2mag have been identified (1362 detected at 3.6um, 419 at 24um, and 405 at both) by low-resolution optical spectroscopy carried out with FORS2, VIMOS, and EFOSC2 at the Very Large Telescope and 3.6m ESO telescope.

The spectroscopic campaigns have been carried out over the central 0.6deg^2^ area of ELAIS-S1 which, in particular, has also been observed by XMM-Newton and Chandra. We find the first direct optical spectroscopic evidence that the fraction of active galactic nuclei (AGNs; mostly AGN2) increases with increasing F(24um)/F(R) ratio, reaching values of 70(+/-20)% in the range 316<F(24um)/F(R)<1000. We present an Infrared Array Camera-Multiband Imaging Photometer color-color diagram able to separate AGN1 from obscured AGN2 candidates.

After having corrected for the spectroscopic incompleteness of our sample, the result is that the AGN fraction at F(24um)~0.8mJy is ~22(+/-7)% and decreases slowly to ~19(+/-5)% down to F(24um)~0.3mJy.
