What is the distance of the absorber from the nucleus? Proposals span a factor of > 10 6 from accretion disk to Kpc scale from accretion disk to Kpc scale narrow line region narrow line region n R 2

How to measure the density? Metastable absorption lines. Metastable absorption lines. - He I *, C II *, C III * - He I *, C II *, C III * - low ionization lines : distinct parameter - low ionization lines : distinct parameter space space - Non-detection NOT constraining - Non-detection NOT constraining Variability Variability

Variability DensityDistance

There can be variability due to absorber crossing line of sight. But But Absorber must vary in responses to changes in ionizing continuum.

Why is this a hard measurement? X-rays: Integration times too large X-rays: Integration times too large (one day = 86.4 ks) (one day = 86.4 ks) UV: need many observations with dense time sampling  lots of HST orbits UV: need many observations with dense time sampling  lots of HST orbits

XMM Observations of NGC 4051 RGS  High resolution spectrum RGS  High resolution spectrum EPIC  Variability EPIC  Variability

Krongold et al. 2007

R (HIP) = lt days. ( R S ) R (LIP) = < 3.5 lt days. (< R S ) BH mass in NGC 4051 is 2 x 10 6 M ⊙

The outflow is clearly compact …consistent with an accretion disk origin. Rule out various models: - wind off torus edge (Krolik & Kriss) - wind off torus edge (Krolik & Kriss) - continuous range of ionization - continuous range of ionization parameter (Ogle et al.) parameter (Ogle et al.)

Mass & Energy outflow rates HIP & LIP mass outflow rates: ~ 1 x M ⊙ yr -1 ~ 1 x M ⊙ yr -1 c.f. accretion rate: ~ 5 x M ⊙ yr -1

Kinetic power released: ~10 38 erg/s c.f. bolometric luminosity: 2.5 x erg/s Energy injection rate in the surrounding medium is significantly smaller than that required by feedback models Scannapieco Silk

Observational evidence for accretion disk winds is scarce Short time-scale variability remains an unexplored region of the parameter space.

Sparse sampling naturally leads to large radial distance. Sparse sampling naturally leads to large radial distance. Often radial distance is assumed to be that with escape velocity = outflow velocity. Often radial distance is assumed to be that with escape velocity = outflow velocity. Distance derived from metastable states is assumed for high ionization outflow. Distance derived from metastable states is assumed for high ionization outflow.
