Abstract:

The high-energy detectors onboard Swift and INTEGRAL have started to survey the hard X-ray sky above 10 keV. Although limited to bright X-ray fluxes (~10^-11 cgs), the large area surveyed so far has allowed to build up sizable sa mples of hard X-ray selected AGN almost unbiased against X-ray absorption. The AGN content of these surveys is dominated by obscured AGN. We have identified 3 objects which are most likely obscured by Compton-thick matter and very bright above 10 keV. We propose to observe them with Suzaku for 40 ks each to study their broad-band X-ray spectra and unveil previously unknown nearby heavily obscured AGN, with important consequences for the study of the AGN evolution and the synthesis of the X-ray background.
