We present the analysis of intrinsic UV absorption in the Seyfert 1 galaxy Mrk 279, observed simultaneously with HST/STIS (40 ks) and FUSE (92 ks). To derive the absorption covering factors and ionic column densities, we employ an algorithm based on minimizing errors in simultaneous fits to multiple lines. This technique allows for the treatment of more complex (and physically realistic) scenarios of the absorption-emission geometry, giving more accurate measurements and unique geometrical constraints on the mass outflow.To search for other articles by the author(s) go to: http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abstract_service.html
