Description


We compiled a sample of 95 AGNs serendipitously detected in the 3-20keV band at Galactic latitude |b|>10deg during the RXTE slew survey (XSS, Revnivtsev et al., Cat. <J/A+A/418/927>), and utilize it to study the statistical properties of the local population of AGNs, including the X-ray luminosity function and absorption distribution. We find that among low X-ray luminosity (LX<10^43.5^erg/s) AGNs, the ratio of absorbed (characterized by intrinsic absorption in the range 10^22^cm^-2^<NH<10^24^cm^-2^) and unabsorbed (NH<10^22^cm^-2^) objects is 2:1, while this ratio drops to less than 1:5 for higher luminosity AGNs. The summed X-ray output of AGNs with LX>10^41^erg/s estimated here is smaller than the earlier estimated total X-ray volume emissivity in the local Universe, suggesting that a comparable X-ray flux may be produced together by lower luminosity AGNs, non-active galaxies and clusters of galaxies. Finally, we present a sample of 35 AGN candidates, composed of unidentified XSS sources.
