Chandra Proposal Id #08700034

Scientific paper

We are close to a completion of an all-sky hard X-ray survey with INTEGRAL that will provide unbiased statistics of nearby AGN, including strongly obscured ones. More than 70 INTEGRAL sources have already been identified with AGN; 6 of these, all strongly absorbed, were localized and identified with Chandra. We now propose to observe with Chandra the error boxes of another 13 INTEGRAL sources, candidate obscured AGN. This will help identify the sources, measure their absorption columns, and complete the INTEGRAL survey.
