Abstract
We propose a 360 ksec observation of the Seyfert Galaxy NGC 1365, a source having a unique set of properties, which make it the best suited target among X-ray absorbed AGNs to study the innermost region of AGNs: FeXXV and FeXXVI Kalpha and Kbeta absorption lines (the highest S/N detection so far among AGNs), rapidly varying cold absorber (N_H variations of ~10^{23}cm^{-2} in a few hours, changes from Compton-thick to Compton-thin in two days), a relativistic iron emission line. This new long observation will constrain the dimensions of the absorbers, and, for the first time, allow the investigation of the dynamics and physical conditions of the hot absorber responsible of the iron absorption lines.

Papers
Authors marked in red are (co-)investigators in the proposal

Classification of papers are:
- CLASS 1: papers that present specific XMM-Newton observations
- CLASS 2: papers that refer to published XMM-Newton results with complementary observations, follow-up analysis, or theoretical analysis
- CLASS 3: further deliveries which resulted from the program and which are made available to the community (e.g. source catalogues, processed images or spectra in public data base)
- CLASS 4: comments and suggestions from PI
