Scientific paper

XMM-Newton and Chandra data have recently revealed complex and exciting behaviour in the Fe K band of Seyfert-type AGN, including discovery of several types of key diagnostic features, rapid variations in some line components and a tight correlation of the ionized line with flux in at least one source. These recent discoveries strengthen the often-debated assertion that a significant fraction of Fe Ka emission originates from the inner accretion disk. I discuss how high-resolution spectroscopy is essential to progress in this exciting field.
