Scientific paper

Recent Chandra and XMM-Newton observations of BALQSO APM08279+5255(z=3.91) have detected strong absorption lines in the Fe line region and imply the presence of a relativistic, energetic and highly ionized outflow. The proposed Chandra observations will allow us to (a) test the correctness of the present interpretations of the Fe line features, (b) monitor the time variability of the Fe absorption features, and (c) constrain the kinematic, ionization and absorbing properties of the quasar outflow. Evaluating the importance of quasar outflows to the enrichment of the interstellar and intergalactic medium even in one quasar will provide important constraints on understanding the connection between black hole and galaxy growth generally.
