5. Winds in general Analogy with jets, they can tell us about bulk energy transport, and provide an imprint of past activity “May” give information on link between accretion disc and corona and high/low states of activity cf. galactic BH systems Feedback - depends on mass outflow rate, and duty cycle For a good review on AGN winds see Crenshaw, Kraemer and George Ann. Revs. 194, 117 (2003)

6. Coronal lines as an outflow diagnostic: what we know about CLs Very high I.P. (by definition), up to ~0.4 keV (thermal = 3 million K) Sometimes (not always) very broad cf. the extended NLR profiles Sometimes (not always) blue shifted peak w.r.t the NLR profiles Sometimes they have obvious blue winged profile (multi-spatial components) Variability? Not well understood but yes in a few cases, needs more studies

19. The Warm Absorber At least 50% of type 1 AGN have WA’s X-ray absorption by ionised gas along our line of sight Deep OVII and OVIII edges Sensitive diagnostic of the ionisation structure and kinematics of the gas Are the UV and X-ray absorbers related? Possibly diff. phases of gas at same velocity Where are the absorbers located?

30. Concluding Remarks - general Winds are important – 50 years of trying to understand accretion and relativistic jets, now turn of winds What drives them of all scales – how are low and high velocity winds related? What switches them on and off? Can they tell us something fundamental about AGN physics and evolution?

31. Concluding Remarks - specific CL’s may be spatially coincident with the WA and/or the X-ray soft excess components. If so they can be used as an additional or proxy measurement of its properties They certainly contain information about kinematics inside the NLR and the SED in the UV/soft X-ray region Now is a good time to revitalise the study of CLs – (near IR hi-res. spectra, IFUs and monitoring with robotic telescopes)
