O VIII resonant absorption in PKS 2155 - 304 - A hot wind

The broad X-ray absorption feature in PKS 2155 - 304 could be due to O VIII Ly-alpha resonant absorption in a wind with outflow speeds up to about 30,000 km/s. The properties of such a wind are calculated. A homogeneous, spherically symmetric wind would involve a mass flux of about a 1000 solar mass...

description The broad X-ray absorption feature in PKS 2155 - 304 could be due to O VIII Ly-alpha resonant absorption in a wind with outflow speeds up to about 30,000 km/s. The properties of such a wind are calculated. A homogeneous, spherically symmetric wind would involve a mass flux of about a 1000 solar masses/year, but this estimate could be greatly reduced if the outflow were beamed, and/or the absorbing gas were clumped into small clouds. In the latter case, the O VIII absorption offers clues to the physical state of thermal material closer to the central energy source than the clouds which produce optical emission lines in quasars.
