Scientific paper

We propose a 400 ks follow-up HETGS GTO observation of MCG--6-30-15 to supplement the previous 120ks GTO look to probe in detail the warm absorber in this source. The high statistics are necessary to construct the distribution functions of the ionic column densities (using weak high-order lines), systematic and turbulent velocities, line variability, and the soft X-ray features. This will enable constraints on the physical properties, structure and dynamics of the warm absorber, with emphasis towards a detailed study of the flow that is seen in this absorber. Additionally, lower ionizations (e.g. O VI, OV, and FeI to FeXV) will be probed via the inner shell transitions. Flourescent iron emission line studies will probe variability in the inner accretion disk.
