dc.descriptionThe relativistic iron line profile recently observed by XMM-Newton in the spectrum of the Seyfert 1 galaxy MCG--6-30-15 (Wilms et al., 2001) is discussed in the framework of the lamp-post model. It is shown that the steep disc emissivity, the large line equivalent width and the amount of Compton reflection can be self- consistently reproduced in this scenario.
