Scientific paper

We propose to extend the 1 Ms Chandra Deep Field-South (CDF-S) survey with six public 330 ks flanking observations: the Extended CDF-S (E-CDF-S). Using these, we will study the detailed cosmic history of accretion onto supermassive black holes, the role of moderate-luminosity AGN at high redshift, AGN clustering, and X-ray groups and low-luminosity clusters. The proposed observations are optimized to fill the X-ray luminosity/redshift plane at z > 1.5 where the AGN source statistics are still limited. Follow-up studies will exploit the superb E-CDF-S multiwavelength coverage including VLT/Keck spectroscopy (6000+ VLT redshifts), HST imaging (GEMS, GOODS, ACS Ultradeep Field; 734 HST orbits), intensive ground-based imaging, and scheduled SIRTF observations.
