Chandra Snapshot Observations of LINERs with a Compact Radio Core
  The results of Chandra snapshot observations of 11 LINERs (Low-Ionization Nuclear Emission-line Regions), three low-luminosity Seyfert galaxies, and one HII-LINER transition object are presented. Our sample consists of all the objects with a flat or inverted spectrum compact radio core in the VLA survey of 48 low-luminosity AGN (LLAGN) by Nagar et al. (2000). An X-ray nucleus is detected in all galaxies except one and their X-ray luminosities are in the range 5x10^38 to 8x10^41 ergs s^-1. The X-ray to Halpha luminosity ratios for 11 out of 14 objects are in good agreement with the value characteristic of LLAGNs and more luminous AGNs, and indicate that their optical emission lines are predominantly powered by a LLAGN. For three objects, this ratio is less than expected. Comparing with multi-wavelength results, we find that these three galaxies are most likely to be heavily obscured AGN. We compare the radio to X-ray luminosity ratio of LLAGNs with those of more-luminous AGNs, and confirm the suggestion that a large fraction of LLAGNs are radio loud.
