An extended XMM-Newton observation of the luminous narrow line Seyfert galaxy PG 1211+143 in 2014 has revealed a more complex high velocity wind, with components distinguished in velocity, ionization level, and column density. Here we…
An XMM-Newton observation of the luminous Seyfert galaxy PG1211+143 in 2001 revealed the first clear evidence for a highly ionised high speed wind (in a non-BAL AGN), with a velocity of v~0.09c based on the identification of blue-shifted…
The nearby quasar, PG 1211+143, has one of the prototype examples of an ultra fast outflow (UFO), as seen in several past XMM-Newton and Chandra observations. In December 2024, PG 1211+143 was observed simultaneously with XRISM Resolve and…
The luminous narrow line Seyfert galaxy PG1211+143 was the first non-BAL AGN to reveal a powerful ionized wind, based on early observations with ESA's XMM-Newton X-ray Observatory. Subsequent observations, mainly with XMM-Newton and the…
Short-term variability and multiple velocity components in the powerful highly ionized wind of the archetypal UFO PG 1211+143 are indicative of inner disc instabilities or short-lived accretion events. The detection of a high velocity (~…
We present the discovery of an outflowing ionized wind in the Seyfert 1 Galaxy Mrk 335. Despite having been extensively observed by most of the largest X-ray observatories in the last decade, this bright source was not known to host warm…
We report two new XMM-Newton observations of PG1211+143 in December 2007, again finding evidence of the fast outflow of highly ionised gas first detected in 2001. Stacking the new spectra with those from two earlier XMM-Newton observations…
Following the discovery of X-ray absorption in a high velocity outflow from the bright quasar PG1211+143 we have searched for similar features in XMM archival data of a second (high accretion rate) quasar PG0844+349. Evidence is found for…
We analyze the X-ray spectrum of the quasar PG1211+143 observed with the CCD and grating spectrometers on board XMM-Newton. Using an ion by ion fitting model we find an outflow component of about 3000 km/s that includes absorption lines of…
An extended XMM-Newton observation of the Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 4051 in 2009 detected a photo-ionized outflow with a complex absorption line velocity structure and a broad correlation of velocity with ionization parameter, shown in Pounds et…
Relativistically blueshifted absorption features of highly ionised ions, the so-called ultra-fast outflows (UFOs), have been detected in the X-ray spectra of a number of accreting supermassive black holes. If these features truly originate…
PG 1448+273 is a luminous, nearby ($z=0.0645$), narrow line Seyfert 1 galaxy, which likely accretes close to the Eddington limit. XMM-Newton observations of PG 1448+273 in 2017 revealed the presence of an ultra fast outflow, as seen through…
Blueshifted absorption lines in the X-ray spectra of AGN show that ultra-fast outflows with typical velocities $v \sim 0.1c$ are a common feature of these luminous objects. Such powerful AGN winds offer an explanation of the observed…
We present a detailed analysis of XMM-Newton X-ray spectra of the Narrow-Line Seyfert 1 galaxy Mrk 1044. We find robust evidence for a multi-phase, ultra-fast outflow, traced by four separate components in the grating spectrum. One…
We report on the analysis of a ~60 ksec XMM observation of the bright, narrow emission line quasar PG 1211+143. Absorption lines are seen in both EPIC and RGS spectra corresponding to H- and He-like ions of Fe, S, Mg, Ne, O, N and C. The…
The detection of a high velocity (~ 0.3c) inflow of highly ionized matter during an extended XMM-Newton observation of the luminous Seyfert galaxy PG 1211+143 in 2014 provided the first direct evidence of a short-lived accretion event, and…
Short-term variability and multiple velocity components in the powerful highly ionized wind of the archetypal UFO PG1211+143 are indicative of inner disc instabilities or short-lived accretion events. The recent detection of a high velocity…
Highly ionised winds with velocities ~ 0.1-0.2c were first detected in X-ray spectra of non-BAL AGN a decade ago. Subsequent observations and archival searches have shown such winds to be a common feature of luminous AGN, increasing the…
An XMM-Newton observation of the bright QSO PG1211+143 in 2001 revealed a blue-shifted absorption line spectrum indicative of a high velocity radial outflow of highly ionised gas. Unless highly collimated, the outflow mass rate was shown to…
An extended XMM-Newton observation of the Seyfert 1 galaxy NGC 4051 in 2009 revealed an unusually rich absorption spectrum with outflow velocities, in both RGS and EPIC spectra, up to ~ 9000 km/s (Pounds and Vaughan 2011). Evidence was…
