Scientific paper

The grating spectrographs on XMM-Newton and Chandra have revolutionised our perspective of the X-ray emission from AGN by revealing a rich phenomenology of atomic absorption and emission features. I will discuss the emission line properties revealed by these observations, including the broad and relativistic emission lines seen in Seyfert 1 galaxies. I will discuss the narrow emission lines seen in type 1 and type 2 Seyferts, and the implications for the geometry of the warm absorber/emitter regions in these objects. I will also discuss the emission lines from LINERs and other low lumonisity AGN.
