" ChaMPlane: Measuring the Faint X-ray binary and Stellar Content of the Galaxy"AST- 0098683This is a deep optical follow-up to the Chandra Multi-wavelength Plane survey made by the Chandra X-ray Observatory. The primary objective is to measure stars and black holes in binary stars within the Galaxy. The survey is about 100 times more sensitive than ROSAT and will enable complete samples to be measured over 5-10 Kpc galactic scales. This survey has been granted archival status by Chandra and Long Term Survey status by the National Optical Astronomy Observatories. Deep wide-field images will be obtained with the MOSAIC camera at CTIO and KPNO over the next 5 years in R, H-alpha, V, and I bands for the purpose of source identification. There will be approximately 100 deep Chandra fields available for analysis.

《CHAMPlane：测量星系的微弱X射线双星和恒星含量》AST-0098683这是钱德拉X射线天文台进行的钱德拉多波长平面测量的深度光学后续工作。主要目标是测量银河系内双星中的恒星和黑洞。这项调查的灵敏度大约是ROSAT的100倍，并将使完整的样本能够在5-10kpc的银河系尺度上进行测量。这项调查已被钱德拉授予档案地位，并被国家光学天文台授予长期调查地位。CTIO和KPNO的马赛克相机将在未来5年内在R、H-Alpha、V和I波段获得深度广域图像，用于震源识别。将有大约100个钱德拉深部油田可供分析。
