Description
We present broadband photometry and photometric redshifts for 187611 sources located in ~0.5deg^2^ in the Lockman Hole area. The catalog includes 388 X-ray-detected sources identified with the very deep XMM-Newton observations available for an area of 0.2deg^2^. The source detection was performed on the Rc-, z'-, and B-band images and the available photometry is spanning from the far-ultraviolet to the mid-infrared, reaching in the best-case scenario 21 bands. Astrometry corrections and photometric cross-calibrations over the entire data set allowed the computation of accurate photometric redshifts. Special treatment is undertaken for the X-ray sources, the majority of which are active galactic nuclei (AGNs). For normal galaxies, comparing the photometric redshifts to the 253 available spectroscopic redshifts, we achieve an accuracy of {sigma}_{Delta}z/(1+z)_=0.036, with 12.6% outliers. For the X-ray-detected sources, compared to 115 spectroscopic redshifts, the accuracy is {sigma}_{Delta}z/(1+z)_=0.069, with 18.3% outliers, where the outliers are defined as sources with |z_phot_-z_spec_|>0.15x(1+z_spec_).
