Scientific paper

We present new data obtained from a Suzaku AO5 Long Program observation of NGC 1365, a unique source that has in the past displayed both a prominent, relativistically broadened iron line and evidence for Compton-thin and Compton-thick eclipses of the inner disk region. These eclipse events allow us to constrain the structure and geometry of the inner disk and the intrinsic absorber(s) with unprecedented detail, and enable us to rule definitively on the emission vs. absorption origin of the putative broad iron line in this source.
