We summarize the multiwavelength properties of X-ray sources detected in the 80 ks XMM-Newton observation of the Groth-Westphal strip, a contiguous strip of 28 Hubble Space Telescope Wide Field Planetary Camera 2 (WFPC2) images. Among the ~150 X-ray sources detected in the XMM-Newton field of view, 23 are within the WFPC2 fields. Ten spectroscopic redshifts are available from the Deep Extragalactic Evolutionary Probe and Canada-France Redshift Survey projects. Four of these show broad Mg II emission and can be classified as type 1 active galactic nuclei (AGNs). Two of those without any broad lines, nevertheless, have [Ne V] emission, which is an unambiguous signature of AGN activity. One is a narrow-line Seyfert 1 and the other a type 2 AGN. As a follow-up, we have made near-infrared spectroscopic observations using the OHS/CISCO spectrometer for five of the X-ray sources for which we found no indication of AGN activity in the optical spectrum. We have detected Hα+[N II] emission in four of them. A broad Hα component and/or a large [N II]/Hα ratio is seen, suggestive of AGN activity. Nineteen sources have been detected in the Ks band, and four of these are extremely red objects (EROs) (I814-Ks>4). The optical counterparts for the majority of the X-ray sources are bulge-dominated. The I814-Ks color of these bulge-dominated hosts are indeed consistent with evolving elliptical galaxies, while contaminations from star formation/AGNs seems to be present in their V606-I814 color. Assuming that the known local relations among the bulge luminosity, central velocity dispersion, and the mass of the central blackhole still hold at z~1, we compare the AGN luminosity with the Eddington luminosity of the central blackhole mass. The AGN bolometric luminosity to Eddington luminosity ratio ranges from 0.3% to 10%.
