Scientific paper

The present thesis deals with the study of the material close to the active nuclei of Seyfert 1 galaxies that are absorbing and emitting radiation in the X-ray spectral range. We perform a comprehensive detailed analysis of all the UV and X-ray data taken by the XMM-Newton satellite of a small sample of five Seyfert 1 galaxies: UGC 11763, ESO G359-G19, HE 1143-1810, CTS A08.12, and Mkn 110. Our aim is to characterize the different components of the gas that print the absorption and emission features in the X-ray spectra of these objects. The continuum emission is studied through the EPIC spectra taking advantage of the spectral range of these cameras. The high resolution RGS spectra are analyzed in order to search for and characterize, if found, the absorbing features and the emission line features that arise in the spectra of these sources.
