Description | We propose to observe 4 X-ray bright gravitationally lensed mini-BAL quasars. The main scientific goals are to\: (a) Investigate whether relativistic outflows are a common property of high-z mini-BAL quasars, (b) infer the range of outflow properties of quasars at a redshift range where AGN feedback is thought to have had its major impact of galaxy evolution. Specifically, we propose to add to the current sample 4 lensed quasars with properties that will significantly increase the parameter space of our study in UV outflow velocity, and (c) test for the possible co-presence of moderate velocity outflows of a few 1000 km/s detected in the UV at distances of virgul100 parsec and ultrafast outflows launched at 10-100 rg scales in high redshift quasars. |

Mission Description | The European Space Agency's (ESA) X-ray Multi-Mirror Mission (XMM-Newton) was launched by an Ariane 504 on December 10th 1999. XMM-Newton is ESA's 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 Earth's 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. |
