AN X-RAY IMAGING SURVEY OF QUASAR JETS: TESTING THE INVERSE COMPTON MODEL

We present results from continued Chandra X-ray imaging and spectroscopy of a flux-limited sample of flat spectrum radio-emitting quasars with jet-like extended structure. X-rays are detected from 24 of the 39 jets observed so far. We compute the distribution of α [subscript rx], the spectral index...
