X-ray view of four high-luminosity Swift/BAT AGN: Unveiling obscuration and reflection with Suzaku [PDF]
, 2013 The Swift/BAT nine-month survey observed 153 AGN, all with ultra-hard X-ray BAT fluxes in excess of 10^-11 erg cm^-2 s^-1 and an average redshift of 0.03. Among them, four of the most luminous BAT AGN (44.73 < Log L(BAT) < 45.31) were selected as targets
