SUMMARY OF SEQUENCE NUMBER 700193

Title: THE HIDDEN UNIVERSE - AXAF OBSERVATIONS OF A DEEP INFRARED SURVEY

Observer: ALMAINI

Subject Category: Active Galaxies and Quasars

Seq: 700193 ObsId: 00888

Long-term Plan bin: 2-Aug-2000

ABSTRACT

We propose 4 ACIS-I observations, each of 75ks, centred on sub-areas of an extremely well studied region from the European Large Area ISO Survey (ELAIS). With existing deep ISO observations in the mid-and far-infrared, VLA observations at 20cm, SCUBA sub-millimetre data and accumulating CCD BVRI and near-IR coverage, these fields are ideal for detecting and studying the properties of dust obscured objects. If the hard X-ray background is indeed due to obscured AGN, we will detect dozens of these objects with both ELAIS and AXAF This will provide a clear cut test of this model, and enable us to study the properties of these objects across most of the electromagnetic spectrum.
