Scientific paper

We propose a Chandra snapshot survey of 13 of the brightest radio-loud broad absorption line quasars (BAL RLQs) in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). These observations will more than triple the number of BAL RLQs with X-ray detections and will allow efficient investigation of the strength and characteristics of intrinsic X-ray absorption. Our sample of notably radio-loud high-ionization BAL quasars (displaying a wide range of outflow velocities and depths) will enable us to test correlations between radio, UV, and X-ray properties and constrain the nature of BALs in RLQs. We will also search for X-ray jets (some targets have extended radio structure) and identify promising candidates for follow-up X-ray and radio observations.
