ABSTRACT
We propose a high-resolution spectral and timing study of the emission and absorption lines from the ultraluminous X-ray source (ULX) NGC 1313 X-1. With a 750 ks XMM-Newton observation (split into three epochs), we will quantify the geometry and physical properties of the relativistic wind and its relation with the accretion rate and radiative luminosity, solving a fundamental problem of black hole accretion. We will determine: a) the launching radius of the wind; b) the mass outflow rate and kinetic power; c) the ionisation structure of the emitting plasma; d) the optical thickness of the wind as a function of spectral hardness of the X-ray continuum (a proxy for the viewing angle), which will describe the presence of orbital and super-orbital periods and the accretion power of ULXs.

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
