Scientific paper

The first snap-shot (18 ks) observation of the prototype Narrow-Line Seyfert 1 galaxy, I Zw 1, with XMM-Newton revealed a myriad of exciting features: Low-energy spectral complexity; indications for multiple Fe K_alpha lines; and a hard X-ray flare which induced continuum variability, but not emission-line(s) variability. With this proposed 85 ks observation, we will be able to examine these, and other properties, in much greater detail. The exposure time will provide sufficient signal to utilise the RGS so that we may study the low-energy spectrum with high-resolution, while the pn will allow us to distinguish between various interpretations for the line feature(s) at ~6 keV.
