초록

The AKARI NEP Deep Field Survey is an international multiwavelength survey over 0.4 deg2 of the sky. This is the deepest survey made by the InfraRed Camera (IRC) of the infrared astronomical satellite AKARI with 9 filters continuously covering the 2-25 μm range, including three filters in the Spitzer gap between the IRAC and MIPS coverages. This enabled us to make sensitive MIR detection of AGN candidates at z~ 1, based on hot dust emission in the AGN torus. It is also eficient in detecting highly obscured Compton-thick AGN population. In this article, we report the rst results of X-ray observations on this eld. The field was covered by 15 overlapping Chandra ACIS-I observations with a total exposure of ~300 ks, detecting  450 X-ray sources. We utilize rest-frame stacking analysis of the MIR AGN candidates that are not detected individually. Our preliminary analysis shows a marginal detection of the rest-frame stacked Fe Kα line from our strong Compton-thick candidates.
