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.;
