Abstract | We propose to fully exploit the XMM large collective area and capability inspatially resolving the interaction between the X-ray emission and the peculiarradio activity around the central galaxy of Abell 3560 located in the core ofthe Shapley Supercluster, the largest and richest system in the nearby Universe.This cluster shows evidence of dynamical disturbance and its central galaxypresents signs of repeated radio activity bursts. Our goal is the understandingof the overall picture which connects the dynamics of the cluster with the radiosource bursts and the formation of cavities. |

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. |
