Scientific paper

We report the recent progress of the Chandra Multiwavelength Plane (ChaMPlane) survey in the Galactic Center region fields. These fields include deep Chandra observations of three low extinction windows near the Galactic Center - Baade's window, Stanek window, and Limiting window (100 ksec each, see van den Berg et al. for a detailed description of these three fields) and the Chandra archival data of Sgr A* (750 ksec), Sgr B2 field (100 ksec) and the shallow survey (2x12 ksec) of the Galactic Center strip (Wang et al 2002, Nature, 415, 148). We classify the spectral types of X-ray sources by quantile analysis, and we explore the source population using logN-logS and spatial distributions based on their spectral type. This project is supported by Chandra grant GO5-6091X.
