Scientific paper

Recent Chandra observations have shown a significant fraction of very faint optical counterparts to faint Chandra sources. The nature of these objects is at present unknown, but they could be highly obscured objects. To test this hypothesis we will observe the largest solid angle deepest SCUBA and ISO 170 micron field. The aim is to cover a reasonable solid angle with ACIS-I and to cross correlate this field with ISO and SCUBA data. Based on our 13hr field observations the hard x-ray log N-log S flattens at ~1E-14 ergs/cm2/sec. This corresponds, roughly, to 4E-4 ACIS-I cts/sec. To reach this limit requires a 25ks exposure for 10 photons.
