X-RAY OBSERVATION OF BAL QSO 2212-1759


ABSTRACT

The observation of ROSAT-detected BAL QSO LBQS2212-1759 is proposed. BAL QSOs give us a important clue to understand the physical condition of the central one light-day region of AGN, the evolution and the interaction between AGN and host galaxies. X-ray observation of BAL QSO to measure the power of the continuum emission and the total absorbing column density is essential but yet has not been done with the satisfactory sensitivity. ASCA spectrum of LBQS2212-1759 with more 10000 photons would be a pioneer study of BAL QSOs.
