Chandra Proposal Id #03700392

Scientific paper

Chandra has enabled the unambiguous deconvolving of narrow Fe-K emission lines in a number of broad-line AGN. Measuring the narrow-line (NL) parameters, (even a non-detection) is important to better understanding and model XMM and existing ASCA data on the relativistically broadened Fe-K lines. The NL is itself a tracer of the temperature, location and velocity field of circumnuclear matter. Without knowledge of the NL, constraints derived from the relativistic Fe lines will always be uncertain. We propose to continue a systematic program to deconvolve the NL to understand the different physics operating in broad Fe-K line AGN. Only Chandra can do this until 2005. We will also propose simultaneous XMM observations to measure the broad Fe-K line component.
