He 1029-1401, Pg 1416-129, Xmm-Newton Proposal 02037702

Scientific paper

This proposal aims to measure the iron K line profiles in the brightest radio quiet quasars with XMM-Newton. Early XMM-Newton results suggest that the iron line profiles in luminous AGN differ considerably to those in Seyfert 1s, which could be linked to fundamental parameters such as accretion rate and black hole spin. Our aims are to resolve the profiles in all 3 quasars proposed, and determine how the broad line component and thus the accretion disc evolves with luminosity. We will also measure any narrow line component associated with more distant material, such as the torus. Finally we will determine whether a highly ionised outflow is present, which is now being detected in other luminous AGN, and may constitute a substantial fraction of the overall energy budget.
