Abstract:

NGC 5506 is one of the brightest Seyferts in the X-ray sky, the second brightest in the PIN bandpass. Obscuring gas has kept the true nature of this AGN secret until recent optical and infrared studies have unmasked the narrow-line-seyfert 1 nucleus. With this knowledge, NGC 5506 is the perfect candidate for confirming the generality of a new result based on a recent XMM observation of Mkn 766, ie that the ionized component of Fe K emission originates from the inner accretion disk and closely tracks the hard X-ray continuum flux. This immediately gives us the ionization-state and size-scale of the inner disk. We request a 150 ks Suzaku observation to see whether a similar result holds for NGC 5506 and, by extension, may be a property of NLS1s.
