Abstract We propose the first simultaneous XMM-Newton and NuSTAR observation (130ks) ofthe highly-variable AGN NGC 6814. We will apply the latest self-consistentbroad-band spectroscopic models, robustly anchoring the fit with simultaneousUV/optical and hard X-ray measurements. We will also track the rapid variationsof the source, extending Fourier lag measurements into the reflection band>10keV for the first time. Additionally, through the first ever Chandraobservation of this source (60ks), we will resolve the FeK profile for the firsttime, allowing us to disentangle any components of inner and outer discreflection.

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.
