Abstract:
Chandra has conducted over 30 extragalactic surveys, at depths between 100 ks to 7 Ms that cumulatively add up to several years of observations. This has led to the discovery of thousands of distant black holes and hundreds of refereed papers that have defined our current understanding of the growth of SMBHs, their radiative outputs, and how these may be linked to their host galaxies. The Swift-BAT 105-month survey all sky survey has detected 1181 of the nearest and brightest AGN, which have similar luminosities to the distant AGN typically found in deep, pencil-beam Chandra surveys. We propose a Chandra cool attitude program to survey the 537 BAT AGN that have yet to be observed by Chandra, within the ecliptic plane constraints. This will enable a high-spatial resolution study on the scales of 100s of pc (~0.025, i.e. 0.5 arcsec=250 pc) for a large number of AGN with an unprecedented collection of ancillary multiwavelength data for the first time to study dual, recoiling, and offset AGN, and to resolve jets, study AGN feedback, and look for extended profiles of plasma (Fe Ka) emission.
