We propose a 160 ks XMM-Newton observation of 1H 0419-577 that will be executednear-simultaneously with an already approved HST-COS observation. We will studythe connection between the X-ray and UV absorber, mapping the ionizationstructure, kinematic behavior and elemental abundances. Finally we will quantifythe AGN feedback by directly measuring the metal enrichment by C, N, O, and Feand the kinetic luminosity of the outflow.

Mission Description
The European Space Agencys (ESA) X-ray Multi-Mirror Mission (XMM-Newton) was launched by an Ariane 504 on December 10th 1999. XMM-Newton is ESAs second cornerstone of the Horizon 2000 Science Programme. It carries 3 high throughput X-ray telescopes with an unprecedented effective area, and an optical monitor, the first flown on a X-ray observatory. The large collecting area and ability to make long uninterrupted exposures provide highly sensitive observations. Since Earths atmosphere blocks out all X-rays, only a telescope in space can detect and study celestial X-ray sources. The XMM-Newton mission is helping scientists to solve a number of cosmic mysteries, ranging from the enigmatic black holes to the origins of the Universe itself. Observing time on XMM-Newton is being made available to the scientific community, applying for observational periods on a competitive basis.
