Abstract Jupiter and its neighbourhood are an exceptionally interesting source of X-rayswithin the solar system. We propose to observe the planet and its Galilean moonsover two XMM-Newton orbits. A good signal-to-noise RGS spectrum of Jupiter.sauroral .hot spots. will resolve the question of their origin: energetic ionprecipitation from entirely inside the magnetosphere, or acceleration ofcaptured solar wind ions in the outer magnetosphere. With EPIC we will studyoscillations observed by Chandra in the hot spot emissions, and the asymmetriesin Jupiter.s low-latitude X-ray emission first observed with ROSAT; we willstudy how Io.s and its Plasma Torus X-ray emissions vary with Io.s orbital phaseabout Jupiter, and we will obtain the first secure X-ray detections of all four Galilean satellites.

Mission Description The European Space Agencys (ESA) X-ray Multi-Mirror Mission (XMM-Newton) was launched by an Ariane 504 on December 10th 1999. XMM-Newton is ESAs second cornerstone of the Horizon 2000 Science Programme. It carries 3 high throughput X-ray telescopes with an unprecedented effective area, and an optical monitor, the first flown on a X-ray observatory. The large collecting area and ability to make long uninterrupted exposures provide highly sensitive observations. Since Earths atmosphere blocks out all X-rays, only a telescope in space can detect and study celestial X-ray sources. The XMM-Newton mission is helping scientists to solve a number of cosmic mysteries, ranging from the enigmatic black holes to the origins of the Universe itself. Observing time on XMM-Newton is being made available to the scientific community, applying for observational periods on a competitive basis.
