A broad iron-K emission line and an outflow at z virgul 1
收藏资源简介:
We propose to observe for a full XMMNewton orbit (virgul120 ks) the lensed quasarB 1152+199 (z 1.019). The flux magnification will make it possible to study in detail the central regions of this quasar, where two previous Chandra snapshots (of 16 and 8 ks) suggest the presence of a broad iron line from the accretion disc and possible absorption. Such features, almost ubiquitous in the local Universe, are still elusive at moderate/high redshift due to the low data quality usually available, in spite of their important implications in terms of supermassive black hole accretion history, cosmic Xray background, and feedback. The new spectrum will allow the detection of any emission and/or absorption line down to an equivalent width of about 100 eV. truncated!, Please see actual data for full text [truncated!, Please see actual data for full text]
