Comments On The Intrinsic X-ray/UV Absorbers In AGN
Abstract
Description
This talk discusses the unified X-ray/UV absorption models in AGN. I will first review the models and discuss how they offer an unique opportunity to probe the near nuclear environment of AGNs. Recently, however, the validity of these models has been questioned by a number of authors. I will discuss these papers and argue that the data/ models presented in them do NOT contradict the unified X-ray/UV picture. I will conclude by presenting our new HST spectrum of a X-ray warm absorber.
