FERO (Finding Extreme Relativistic Objects): relativistic Iron K alpha lines in type 1 AGN

Cosmology and Nongalactic Astrophysics 2009-12-11 v1

Abstract

The observational evidence for AGN relativistic Iron lines is very much debated. To address this topic, the FERO project makes use of the largest sample of X-ray spectra of radio quiet Type 1 AGN available in the XMM-Newton archive. We perform a systematic fit of the individual sources using a full relativistic code. Results on the first part of the project are presented here.
