Scientific paper

A short XMM-Newton observation of the luminous narrow line QSO PG1211+143 has provided perhaps the best evidence yet for a massive and energetic outflow in an AGN, a property that may be characteristic of Eddington-limited accretion. In addition, the unusually strong soft X-ray spectrum of PG1211+143 has been a focus of recent attempts to understand the origin of the soft excess in AGN. We request an extended study of PG1211+143 in AO6, to obtain improved quality EPIC and RGS spectra, with better coverage of the anticipated spectral variability timescales, to allow the X-ray spectrum to be de-convolved and the ionisation structure and dynamics of the outflow better understood.
