We confirm the detection of the relativistically broadened iron K-alpha emission at 6.4 keV with simultaneous Chandra HETGS and RXTE PCA observations. Heavily binned HETGS data show a disk line profile with parameters very similar to those previously seen by ASCA. We observe a resolved narrow component with a velocity width ~4700 km/s (FWHM ~ 11,000 km/s), that is most prominent, and narrower (FWHM ~ 3600 km/s) when the continuum flux is high. It plausibly is just the blue wing of the broad… Expand
