Scientific paper

We propose to observe 3 enigmatic Compact Ultra Steep Spectrum (CUSS) radio sources with Chandra + ACIS-S. They are identified with very faint multi-component galaxies or small groups, have defeated optical and near-IR spectroscopic (emission-line) detection, are compact radio sources and strong sub-mm/mm emitters. Our Chandra observations would allow us to determine whether they are members of the elusive class of heavily obscured (radio-loud) type II quasars. This would not only deepen our understanding of steep spectrum selected radio samples, but might also provide a possible link to studies of the X-ray cosmological background through radio source identification at much lower flux densities in the future.
