Description

I will review results from the 2016 observing campaign on the most X-ray variable AGN, IRAS 13224. This source shows both extreme relativistic reflection from the inner accretion disk and an ultra-fast outflow, both variable on timescales of under an hour. As no other absorption features are present in the spectrum, we have a clean view of the inner accretion disk and the relativistic physics exhibited there. I will also discuss the implications of these results, and potential next steps for expanding our knowledge of accretion and outflows using NLS1s.
