Scientific paper

The authors present results of a program for optical identification of a representative sample of RASS sources contained in 5 study areas north of δ = -9° with |bII| > 25° including one region near the North Galactic Pole (NGP) and one near the North Ecliptic Pole (NEP). For a count rate and area limited complete subsample comprising 534 sources observations and/or literature identifications exist. The authors found a dependency of the ratio of "extragalactic" (e.g. AGN, cluster of galaxies) to "stellar" (e.g. coronal emitters, active binaries) counterparts on NH. In the area near the NGP (low NH) "extragalactic" counterparts dominate, while in the area with the highest NH "stellar" counterparts dominate.
