Scientific paper

MCG-02-14-009 appears to have the strongest relativistic FeK line among all the Seyfert 1s: a short 5ks XMM observation found the line to have an EW~530-770eV, i.e. two times larger than for MCG-6-30-15. We propose a net 100 ks XMM observation follow-up of this AGN, providing a unique opportunity to gain insight into the physical properties of the disk in the region of strong gravity. The main goals of this proposal are: i) accurately measure the broad FeK line profile, thereby determining the geometry of the X-ray emitting region, accretion disk and the black hole spin; ii) determine the origin of the soft excess and whether it is due to emission from a photo-ionized disc or a warm absorber; and iii) characterize the AGN variability and determine whether the iron line responds to continuum changes.
