ABSTRACT
Knowledge of the structure and kinematics of gas around supermassive black holes is vital to understanding accretion and thus AGN feedback. To this end, we, the AGN STORM 2 team, have been awarded a Large 198-orbit Hubble Space Telescope program and a Las Cumbres Observatory Key Project to measure reverberation lags in Mrk 817. Previous UV/optical reverberation mapping campaigns have successfully mapped the outer accretion disc and broad line region, but reveal that X-rays (thought to be the primary driver of multi-wavelength variability) do not correlate with longer wavelengths as well as expected. X-ray spectral and timing measurements are necessary to track changes in the geometry and dynamics of the inner accretion flow that likely affect our inference of the outer disc and outflow str

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
