Scientific paper

We propose the `ultimate' resolution Chandra imaging survey (CHEERS) of a far-IR selected sample of active galactic nuclei (AGN) from Schmitt et al. (2003). With complementary high resolution HST and radio data, CHEERS will (1) resolve the detailed X-ray morphology of the extended narrow line region and obtain full picture of the multiphase interstellar medium (ISM) with typical resolution of 0.4 arcsec; (2) investigate the X-ray emission mechanisms at AGN jet-ISM interaction regions and (3) measure mass and momentum outflow rates to evaluate the importance of AGN feedback. To achieve these goals, we request 335 ks ACIS-S observations and 5 HST orbits to supplement the archival data.
