We propose to continue our Chandra Multiwavelength Plane (ChaMPlane) Survey spectroscopy and calibration follow-ups using the CTIO telescopes. The ChaMPlane Survey is a project to identify a large sample of serendipitous X-ray sources located in deep galactic plane fields imaged by the Chandra X-ray Observatory. These sources include cataclysmic variables (CVs), quiescent low mass X-ray binaries (qLMXBs), Be X-ray binaries and stellar coronal sources tegri00. We are near the end of our 5-year ChaMPlane survey program, which is one of the current NOAO Long Term Survey Programs. It is also supported by NASA (Chandra Archive) and NSF. The spectroscopy follow-up on X-ray optical counterparts and H(alpha) emission sources for classification is the final, crucial step for completing the survey. The photometric calibration is critical for establishing the NOAO survey database which we are committed with, in order to provide the community with all our optical images and the star magnitudes. This year we have successfully conducted a CTIO-4m/Hydra spectroscopy run and a CTIO-1.3m/Andicam calibration run. Here we propose to continue our follow-up spectroscopic and calibration programs in the year 2005.
