The Complex X-Ray Obscuration Environment in the Radio-loud Type 2 Quasar 3C 223

3C 223 is a radio-loud, Type 2 quasar at z = 0.1365 with an intriguing X-ray Multi-mirror Mission (XMM)-Newton spectrum that implicated it as a rare, Compton-thick ( N _H ≳ 1.25 × 10 ^24 cm ^−2 ) active galactic nucleus (AGN). We obtained contemporaneous XMM-Newton and Nuclear Spectroscopic Telescop...
