Scientific paper

Photoionized, warm absorbing gas is an important component of the nuclear structure of AGN. Approximately half of all low-z AGN show high-ionization UV absorption lines and X-ray warm absorbers, but the relationship of the UV-absorbing gas to the even higher ionization X-ray absorbing material is not yet understood. Only a handful of high-spectral-resolution observations with HST, Chandra or FUSE currently exist (NGC4151, NGC3516, NGC3783, NGC5548, Mrk 509). These show a diversity of kinematic structure and ionization states in the absorbers. We propose to increase significantly the sample of low-redshift AGN studied at high spectral resolution in the UV and the X-ray by obtaining simultaneous HST, Chandra, and FUSE spectra of NGC7469.
