authority http header - in chrome dev tools

Viewed 56696

chrome dev tools - displays some http header with a leading : (not sure why it does with some and not others).

One of these is the http header authority which is displays as:

authority:api.somedomain.com

However this is listed in the list of http headers on Wikipedia. Is this a new HTTP2 header or is possible to define any new request field in the headers -or are these fixed?
