Title: PROBING RELATIVISTIC OUTFLOWS IN EXTREME NLS1
Observer: NANDRA
Subject Category: Active Galaxies and Quasars
Seq: 700117 ObsId: 00812
Long-term Plan bin: 18-Jul-2000
ABSTRACT
The most extreme objects in the class of ``Narrow-Line'' Seyfert 1 galaxies (NLS1) show absorption features which are probably due to oxygen in a relativistic wind outflowing from the nucleus. The features are blueshifted to 1-1.5 keV and therefore occur close to the peak efficiency of the MEG. We propose to use that instrument to confirm the features and measure their energy, strength and profiles to probe this unusual relativistic flow, which may represent an analogue of the BAL phenomenon observed in the UV.
