dc.descriptionUnderstanding the nature of Extremely Red Objects [EROs; (I-K)>=4] is one of the most challenging issues in observational cosmology. Here we report on the X-ray constraints provided by the 2 Ms Chandra Deep Field-North Survey (CDF-N). X-ray emission has been detected from 11 out of 36 EROs (approx 30%). Five of these have hard X-ray emission and appear to be obscured AGNs, while non-AGN emission (star formation or normal elliptical galaxy emission) is likely to be the dominant source of X-rays from the soft X-ray sources detected at the faintest X-ray flux levels.
