Abstract:                                ! Free format text (please update)
    Intrinsic ``associated'' absorption has been a well known but
    little understood phenomenon in ultraviolet (UV) studies of
    both low and high luminosity active galactic nuclei (AGN) and
    in X-ray observations of the former.  Recently it has become
    evident that a form of X-ray absorption is also common in high
    luminosity quasars. The identity of the absorber is not
    established in either case.  In a recent study of 3C351 we
    have demonstrated, using both UV and X-ray data, that the
    associated UV metal lines and the soft X-ray absorption are
    due to the same material. This is the first confirmed UV/X-ray
    absorber and the combination of constraints provided by both
    datasets is  powerful in determining the physical conditions
    and ionization state of the absorber, which we determine to be
    low density, highly ionized, outflowing material situated
    outside the broad line region. This is a previously unknown
    component of nuclear material. Following the result in 3C351,
    we have shown that the UV and X-ray absorbers are one and the
    same in two more AGN: 3C212 and NGC5548. We propose to analyze
    archival HST UV spectra for 4 AGN with known, ionized X-ray
    absorbers in search of other UV/X-ray absorbers. The resulting
    dataset will allow us to investigate the properties of the
    absorbing material with unprecedented accuracy.
