Scientific paper

We propose to obtain ACIS-S observations of 5 low luminosity radio galaxies. Combined with existing and forthcoming archival data, these sources enable the creation of an unbiased, complete, distance limited sample of 13 FRI galaxies. We will use the Chandra observations to construct a broad band spectral energy distribution of the nucleus in these objects and conduct detailed analyses of the X-ray properties in order to determine whether they are dominated by unresolved jets or low efficiency accretion disks (e.g., advection dominated accretion flows). These results will have fundamental implications for our understanding of activity in galaxies and the relationships between active and non-active galaxies.
