Context. Hard X-ray properties of beamed AGN have been published in the 105-month Swift/BAT catalog, but there have not been any studies carried out so far on a well-defined, radio-selected sample of low-peaked blazars in the hard X-ray band. Aims. Using the statistically complete MOJAVE-1 sample, we aim to determine the hard X-ray properties of radio-selected blazars, including the enigmatic group of gamma-ray-faint blazars. Additionally, we aim to determine the contribution of radio-selected lowpeaked blazars to the diffuse CXB. Methods. We determined photon indices, fluxes, and luminosities in the range of 20 keV -100 keV of the X-ray spectra of blazars and other extragalactic jets from the MOJAVE-1 sample, derived from the 105-month Swift/BAT survey. We calculated log N-log S distributions and determined the luminosity functions.Results. The majority of the MOJAVE-1 blazars are found to be hard X-ray emitters albeit many at low count rates. The log Nlog S distribution for the hard X-ray emission of radio-selected blazars is clearly non-Euclidean, in contrast to the radio flux density distribution. Approximately 0.2% of the CXB in the 20 keV -100 keV band can be resolved into MOJAVE-1 blazars. Conclusions. The peculiar log N-log S distribution disparity might be attributed to different evolutionary paths in the X-ray and radio bands, as tested by luminosity-function modeling. X-ray variability can be ruled out as the dominant contributor. Low-peaked blazars constitute an intrinsically different source population in terms of CXB contribution compared to similar studies of X-ray-selected blazars. The hard X-ray flux and spectral index can serve as a good proxy for the gamma-ray detection probability of individual sources. Future observations combining deep X-ray survey, for example, with eROSITA, and targeted gamma-ray observations with CTA can benefit strongly from the tight connection between these high-energy bands for the different blazar sub-classes. 1 arXiv:2004.00477v1 [astro-ph.HE] 1 Apr 2020 M. Langejahn et al.: Hard X-ray properties of radio-selected blazars quasars (FSRQ), out of 1632 sources, including 114 unclassified AGN and an additional 129 unidentified sources. The recent 4FGL catalog of the gamma-ray all-sky survey from Fermi/LAT (The Fermi-LAT collaboration 2019) alone contains 1102 BL Lac type and 681 FSRQ type blazars out of a total of 2940 associated blazars and blazar candidates.In this work, we perform a detailed analysis of X-ray data from the most recent Swift/BAT survey maps for the radioselected MOJAVE-1 (Monitoring Of Jets in Active galactic nuclei with VLBA Experiments) beamed AGN sample. We report the hard X-ray characteristics in the 20 keV -100 keV band of this statistically complete extragalactic jet sample, which is mostly composed of blazars.This paper is structured as follows: Sect. 2 gives a short introduction to the MOJAVE program as well as the Swift mission and describes the object samples and data basis we used. The analysis, including the applied methods and assumptions...
