Abstract (from CDS):

We derive photometric redshifts (zphot) for sources in the entire (∼0.4 deg2) Hawaii-Hubble Deep Field-North (H-HDF-N) field with the EAzY code, based on point-spread-function-matched photometry of 15 broad bands from the ultraviolet (U band) to mid-infrared (IRAC 4.5 µm). Our catalog consists of a total of 131,678 sources. We evaluate the zphot quality by comparing zphotwith spectroscopic redshifts (zspec) when available, and find a value of normalized median absolute deviation σNMAD= 0.029 and an outlier fraction of 5.5% (outliers are defined as sources having|zphot- zspec|/(1 + zspec) > 0.15) for non-X-ray sources. More specifically, we obtain σNMAD= 0.024 with 2.7% outliers for sources brighter than R = 23 mag, σNMAD= 0.035 with 7.4% outliers for sources fainter than R = 23 mag, σNMAD= 0.026 with 3.9% outliers for sources having z < 1, and σNMAD= 0.034 with 9.0% outliers for sources having z > 1. Our zphotquality shows an overall improvement over an earlier zphot work that focused only on the central H-HDF-N area. We also classify each object as a star or galaxy through template spectral energy distribution fitting and complementary morphological parameterization, resulting in 4959 stars and 126,719 galaxies. Furthermore, we match our catalog with the 2 Ms Chandra Deep Field-North main X-ray catalog. For the 462 matched non-stellar X-ray sources (281 having zspec), we improve their zphotquality by adding three additional active galactic nucleus templates, achieving σNMAD= 0.035 and an outlier fraction of 12.5%. We make our catalog publicly available presenting both photometry and zphot, and provide guidance on how to make use of our catalog.
