The Cosmic X-ray Background

Hard X-ray Surveys Most direct probe of the super-massive black hole (SMBH) accretion activity, recorded in the CXB spectral energy density SMBH census Strong constraints to models for the formation and evolution of structure in the Universe AGN number and luminosity evolution AGN clustering and its evolution

Optical (and soft X-ray) surveys gives values 2-3 times lower than those obtained from the CXB (and of the F.&M. and G. et al. estimates)

Summary most of the CXB <6-8keV is resolved in sources Black Hole mass density ~2 times higher than that estimated from optical and soft X-rays: better agreement with CXB estimates and with local space density Differential evolution of number and luminosity densities. Nice agreement between the evolution of luminous QSO and CDM HC models. Problems with low luminosity AGN? Revision of Unified Schemes

Revision of Unified Schemes Mild.

Revision of Unified Schemes Strong: Low L Seyfers and powerful QSO: different populations. A working scenario: Seyferts associated to galaxies with merging histories characterized by small mass progenitors. Feedback is effective in self-regulating accretion and SF, cold gas is left available for subsequent nuclear activation produced by loose galaxy encounters (fly-by). QSOs associated to galaxies with large mass progenitors. Feedback is less effective, most gas is quickly converted in stars and accreted during a few major mergers at high Eddington rates. The obscuration properties of the two populations can be different in term of geometry, gas density, covering factor, ionization state, metallicity, dust content etc..

What s next? 1) Paucity of high z loglx<44.5 sources? Real or are we missing highly obscured AGNs? 2) Compare the obscuration properties of Seyfert 2 galaxies and QSO2 3) Deconvolve accr. rate and BH mass: 4) Seyfert-QSO/galaxy clustering and its evolution

1) Paucity of Seyfert like sources @ z>1 is real? Or, is it, at least partly, a selection effect? Are we missing in Chandra and XMM surveys highly obscured (NH 1024 cm-2) AGN? Which are common in the local Universe

Imaging surveys up to 8-10 kev (ASCA,BSAX, Chandra, XMM): most of the CXB <6-7 kev is resolved in sources. But only 40-50% in the 5-10 kev band. Few % E>10keV. The light-up and evolution of obscured accreting SMBH is still largely unknown Worsley et a. 2004

What s needed? Sensitive observations at the peak of the CXB (~20-40 kev) to probe highly X-ray obscured AGN But.. How deep should we go? and how hard should we go?

Residual CXB after subtracting the resolved fraction below 10 kev Comastri 2004 We need to resolve: 80% of CXB @10-30keV (similar to Chandra and XMM deep fields below 10 kev) 50% of CXB @ 20-40keV

Conclusions To improve the present knowledge on the sources making the CXB, to have a more complete census of SMBH up to z=1-2, i.e. the golden age of AGN and galaxy activity, we should go down to fluxes where: 80% of the 10-30keV CXB is resolved in sources (0.1 Crab); 50% of the 20-40keV CXB is resolved in sources (0.75 Crab) This can be done with lightweight (<400kg), multilayer optics with Aeff 500 cm2 @20-30 kev and 15 HPD
