SPIDERS: selection of spectroscopic targets using AGN candidates detected in all-sky X-ray surveys

Abstract: SPIDERS (SPectroscopic IDentification of eROSITA Sources) is an SDSS-IV survey running in parallel to the eBOSS cosmology project. SPIDERS will obtain optical spectroscopy for large numbers of X-ray-selected AGN and galaxy cluster members detected in wide area eROSITA, XMM-Newton and ROSAT surveys. We describe the methods used to choose spectroscopic targets for two sub-programmes of SPIDERS targets: X-ray selected AGN candidates detected in the ROSAT All Sky and the XMMNewton Slew surveys. We have exploited a… Show more

“…We pay particular attention to the new hardware developments of the program, which are primarily related to APOGEE-2S and MaNGA. More detail on all programs, and in particular how each survey's design addresses its high level requirements, is or will be available in existing and upcoming technical papers Morganson et al 2015;Clerc et al 2016;Dawson et al 2016;Dwelly et al 2017, and APOGEE-2 and TDSS papers in preparation).…”

“…The primary targets were defined by two different SDSS-WISE selection algorithms to determine the eBOSS LRG program (Prakash et al 2016) and several optical-IR and variability selections to determine the eBOSS quasar program (Myers et al 2015). Likewise, objects selected from a combination of X-ray and optical imaging were used to determine the final SPIDERS cluster (Clerc et al 2016) and AGN (Dwelly et al 2017) programs, while variability in PanSTARRS imaging was used to determine the final TDSS program (Morganson et al 2015;Ruan et al 2016).…”

“…The target catalogs for galaxy clusters and AGNs for SPIDERS from these two satellites have been included in DR13 as value-added catalogs. The SPIDERS AGN target catalogs (Dwelly et al 2017) contain 9,028 candidate targets from RASS and 819 from XMMSL (XMMNewton Slew survey catalog; Saxton et al 2008). They enclose information on the X-ray sources, including flux measurements, and a quantitative measure of the reliability of the association to optical and AllWISE data.…”
