AbstractWe present the results from a shallow (2-10 ksec) XMM/2dF survey. Our survey covers 18 XMM fields ($sim 5 { m deg}^2$) previously spectroscopically followed up with the Anglo-Australian telescope 2-degree field facility. About half of the fields are also covered by the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). We are searching for extended sources using the XMM SAS maximum likelihood algorithm in the 0.3-2 keV band and we have detected 14 candidate clusters down to a flux of $sim2 imes10^{-14} cgs$. Our preliminary results show that: i) the redshift distribution peaks at relatively high redshifts ($sim0.4$) as expected from the Rosati et al. $Phi(L)$, ii) some of our X-ray clusters appear to have optical counterparts.
