Abstract
We present broad band Suzaku}observations of a small sample of hard X-ray selected (> 10 keV), nearby Seyfert 2 galaxies and discuss the results in the context of AGN unified model. We also review the issues related to the space density of heavily obscured, Compton Thick AGN in the local Universe and the perspectives for the search of these objects at high redshifts.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
