Abstract

The Chandra COSMOS Survey (C-COSMOS) is a large, 1.8Ms, Chandra program that has imaged the central 0.9deg^2^ of the COSMOS field down to limiting depths of 1.9x10^-16^erg/cm^2^/s in the soft (0.5-2keV) band, 7.3x10^-16^erg/cm^2^/s in the hard (2-10keV) band, and 5.7x10^-16^erg/cm^2^/s in the full (0.5-10keV) band. In this paper we report the i, K, and 3.6um identifications of the 1761 X-ray point sources. We use the likelihood ratio technique to derive the association of optical/infrared counterparts for 97% of the X-ray sources. For most of the remaining 3%, the presence of multiple counterparts or the faintness of the possible counterpart prevented a unique association. For only 10 X-ray sources we were not able to associate a counterpart, mostly due to the presence of a very bright field source close by. Only two sources are truly empty fields. The full catalog, including spectroscopic and photometric redshifts and classification described here in detail, is available online.
