Abstract We request deep (130ks) simultaneous XMM-Newton and NuSTAR observations of thenew powerful disk wind detected in the Seyfert2 MCG-03-58-007 (Fxvirgul2x10^-12cgsz=0.0315). A Suzaku observation revealed a deep absorption trough at 7.5-9 keV,possibly associated with the presence of a high column density (NHvirgul4x10^23cm-2),highly ionized absorber outflowing at vvirgul0.1c, strongly resembling the case ofPDS456. We ask for a simultaneous observation with NuSTAR to perform a detailedspectral analysis and derive the location and energetics of this wind. Byexploiting the combined high-quality X-ray spectroscopic capabilities andbroad-band spectral coverage of the XMM-Newton and NuSTAR data we will constrainthe underlying continuum and thus better investigate the profile of the absorption features.

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.
