A number of emission and absorption features are expected to be visible in high energy resolution X-ray spectra of type 1 AGN with ionized gas along the line of sight (so called "warm absorbers"). Emission strongly depends on the…
In this paper we explore collisional ionization and time-evolving photoionization in the, X-ray discovered, ionized absorbers in Seyfert galaxies. These absorbers show temporal changes inconsistent with simple equilibrium models. We develop…
When an AGN is obscured, the warm reflecting gas nearby can be seen by a combination of bremsstrahlung, intrinsic line emission, and reflection of the nuclear continuum, both by electron scattering and by resonance line scattering.…
To investigate the origins of the warm absorbers in active galactic nuclei (AGNs), we study the ionization-state structure of the radiation-driven fountain model in a low-mass AGN (Wada et al. 2016) and calculate the predicted X-ray…
We report on the performance of the statistical, X-ray absorption lines identification procedure XLINE-ID. As illustration, it is used to estimate the time averaged gas density $n_H(r)$ of a representative AGN's warm absorber ($T\approx…

Signatures of warm absorbers are seen in soft X-ray spectra of about half of all Seyfert1 galaxies observed and in some quasars and blazars. We use the thermal equilibrium curve to study the influence of the shape of the ionizing continuum,…
The analysis of X-ray absorption features in active galactic nuclei (AGN) provides a wealth of information about the physical properties of the matter surrounding supermassive black holes (SMBHs). While standard correlations between the…
