ABSTRACT
AGN outflows couple supermassive black holes to their environments. Using an ambitious multiwavelength campaign on NGC 5548, (XMM-Newton, HST, Swift, and optical) we propose to achieve a new level of physical understanding for these enigmatic winds by obtaining the deepest RGS spectrum of any AGN, allowing us to determine the ionisation structure of the gas. Using EPIC data we will measure the response of the outflow to continuum variations, which combined with HST/COS data determines unambiguously the location and tomography of the outflow components. Time-dependent UV and X-ray continuum variations will constrain the geometry and physics close to the black hole. Our team pioneered this approach, and recently applied it successfully (12 refereed papers) to Mrk 509.

PAPERS
Authors marked in red are (co-)investigators in the proposal

Classification of papers are:
- CLASS 1:   papers that present specific XMM-Newton observations
- CLASS 2: papers that refer to published XMM-Newton results with complementary observations, follow-up analysis, or theoretical analysis
- CLASS 3: further deliveries which resulted from the program and which are made available to the community (e.g. source catalogues, processed images or spectra in public data base)
- CLASS 4: comments and suggestions from PI
