Abstract

We present a spectral analysis of the narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxy I Zwicky 1, focusing on the characteristics of the ionised absorbers as observed with XMM-Newton in 2005. The outflow velocity of the X-ray low-ionisation absorber is consistent with the outflow of the UV absorber detected in a past Hubble Space Telescope observation. In addition, the ionic column densities of Civ and Nv derived from the X-ray model are consistent with the UV values. This suggests that the low-ionisation outflowing gas may survive for many years, despite large changes in flux, and that there is a tight connection between the X-ray and UV absorbers that can only be confirmed with a simultaneous UV and X-ray observation.
