We present the results from a shallow (2-10 ksec) XMM/2dF survey. Our survey covers 18 XMM fields ($\sim 5 {\rm deg}^2$) previously spectroscopically followed up with the Anglo-Australian telescope 2-degree field facility. About half of the…

We present an analysis of the X-ray spectral properties of 61 hard X-ray selected (2-8 keV) sources from the bright ($f_{2-8 keV}>10^{-14}$ \funits) {\it XMM-Newton}/2dF survey. This comprises of 9 {\it XMM-Newton} pointings in the North…

The XMM-RM project was designed to provide X-ray coverage of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Reverberation Mapping (SDSS-RM) field. 41 XMM-Newton exposures, placed surrounding the Chandra AEGIS field, were taken, covering an area of 6.13 deg^2…

The XMM identification (XID) programme is accumulating Optical/IR data to identify thousands of XMM sources at both high ($bII > 20^{\circ}$) and low galactic latitude. X-ray sources are divided into samples on the basis of their X-ray flux…
