Chandra Proposal Id #02700048

Scientific paper

The goal of this project is twofold. We will take high resolution X-ray spectra of Seyfert galaxy nuclei to study their structure and dynamics. We will also study the plasma associated with intervening galaxies along the line of sight to a quasar. We will observe the Seyfert 2 galaxy NGC 5506 to study its emission lines, variability, and nature of its extended emission. Chandra will allow us to spatially and spectrally resolve the nuclear and extended components of the AGN. We will observe Seyfert 1 galaxy Mkn 766 to study its warm absorber and variability. Finally, we will search for X-ray absorption in the spectrum of QSO H1821+643 from intervening systems.
