Description
Multi-wavelength observational data of a new complete sample of low luminosity AGN are used to test the diskwind model of Active Galactic Nuclei. The dataset is used to explore the relationships between the existence of an accretion disk and X-ray corona as well as the impact of an obscuring torus. It appears that a time-dependent accretion disk and wind play a pivotal role in shaping AGN classification beyond the orientation-based classification.
