Abstract:

We propose a 120 ksec Suzaku exposure of the ULIRG IRAS19254-7245. A previous XMM-Newton observation revealed the presence of a strong iron emission line and a flat continuum, both suggesting that this source hosts a Compton-thick AGN. In this scenario, the 2-10 keV luminosity of IRAS19254-7245 could be greater than 10e44 erg/s. However since no direct continuum is visible in the XMM bandpass, a direct measure of the absorbing column density was not feasible, thus the intrinsic X-ray luminosity of this source was derived only through indirect arguments. The unique bandpass and sensititvity of Suzaku above 10 keV will allow us to confirm the Compton-thick nature of this source and to measure for the first time the intrinsic X-ray luminosity of the AGN hosted in IRAS 19254-7245.
