FUSE and the Astrophysics of AGN and QSOs

Gerard A. Kriss

The high spectral resolution and sensitivity of FUSE have enabled far-ultraviolet studies of AGN and QSOs that are a natural complement to observations using HST, Chandra, and XMM-…

FUSE observations of the HeII Lyman alpha forest towards HS1700+6416

D. Reimers, C. Fechner, G. Kriss +5

We present FUSE observations of the HeII Lyman alpha forest in the redshift range 2.3 < z < 2.7 towards HS1700+6416. Between October 2002 and February 2003, the brightness of the Q…

Warm Absorbers in AGN: A Multi-Temperature Wind

Julian H. Krolik, Gerard A. Kriss

Although soft X-ray absorption features in AGN were discovered almost ten years ago, the nature and location of the gas creating them has remained controversial. Guided by the resu…

FUSE Observations of Warm Absorbers in AGN

Gerard A. Kriss

In a survey of the UV-brightest AGN using the Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer (FUSE), we commonly find associated absorption in the O VI 1032,1038 resonance doublet. Of 34 T…

Monitoring of the optical and 2.5-11.7 micron spectrum and mid-IR imaging of the Seyfert 1 galaxy Mrk279 with ISO

The AGN Watch collaboration, M. Santos-Lleo, J. Clavel +19

Mid-infrared images of the Seyfert 1 galaxy Mrk 279 obtained with the ISO satellite are presented together with the results of a one-year monitoring campaign of the 2.5-11.7 micron…

Far-Ultraviolet Spectra of AGN: First Results from FUSE

Gerard A. Kriss

Composite spectra derived from HST observations of moderate redshift (z~1) quasars show that the peak of the spectral energy distribution is at ~1000 A, and that the ionizing conti…
