Scientific paper

As the final element of QUEST, a comprehensive multiwavelength program on local massive gas-rich mergers (ULIRGs & QSOs), we propose to obtain EPIC imaging data on the remaining 10 of 25 PG QSOs in the QUEST sample that have not been observed by XMM or Chandra. The main goal of the program is to determine the evolution of the energy source and the feeding/growth rate of BHs along the merger sequence (from mergers to ULIRGs to QSOs) as well as to find if there is a fundamental link between ULIRGs, IR-excess QSOs, and optical QSOs. These observations will supplement data already obtained with HST, SST, VLT, and IRAM. The X-ray data will become part of graduate student S. Teng's Ph.D. thesis.
