Chandra Proposal Id #05700535

Scientific paper

We propose 300~ks Chandra HETGS simultaneous with 4 HST orbits primarily to study the warm absorber environment (chemical compositions, velocities, absorbing column) of the archetypal infrared quasar IRAS 13349+2438. We will look for associations between the X-ray and UV absorbers, and study the properties of dust extinction in this source. Inner shell excitation lines from low ionization ions (previously only probed in the UV) will be compared with HST measurements. We will resolve many of the individual lines of the UTA to put ionization limits on a possible `lukewarm' absorber. The HST spectrum will give us a first view of Ly-alpha and Si IV in this source at shorter wavelengths.
