SUMMARY:New Views of Black Hole Disk Winds\, Astronomy Colloquium\, Jo
n Miller\, University of MI
DESCRIPTION:High-resolution X-ray spectroscopy has been central to rev
ealing the nature of X-ray winds from accreting massive black holes.
These winds may ultimately have important effects on the evolution of
host galaxies. However\, early studies with Chandra may have given a
partially skewed view of the radii at which such winds originate\, and
the mechanisms by which they are driven. With an eye toward the comi
ng Astro-H era\, I will briefly review past results\, and then highlig
ht some new and emerging views of black hole disk winds. Where possib
le\, I will draw analogies between parallel investigations in accretin
g stellar-mass black holes. Overall\, new results suggest that disk w
inds may originate closer to the black hole\, and carry much more
\nmass and power than previously appreciated.
