Scientific paper

We propose a 90ks XMM--Newton observation of the Narrow Line Seyfert 1 galaxy RE 1034+396. This has the strongest soft X-ray excess ever seen in an active galaxy (AGN). It also has extremely low absorption in the line-of-sight, so has excellent FUSE/EUVE/HST data to delineate the lower energy extent of the soft X-ray excess and especially how this connects onto the accretion disc emission. RE1034+396 thus represents the extreme of the NLS1 population, and the best hope for constraining the nature of the soft excess.
