Abstract	During a scan of the Galactic plane performed in 2004, H.E.S.S. (the currentlymost sensitive TeV telescope) has discovered a new class of so far unidentifiedTeV gamma-ray sources. We propose to use XMM to perform follow-up observationson a set of four of these sources, which have plausible associations with knownSupernova remnants. The large sensitivity of XMM and its energy range up to 15keV are required to provide a detailed view of the morphology of thesurroundings of the TeV sources. This will allow us either to prove that thespatial coincidences of the gamma-ray sources and the Supernova remnants are ofphysical origin, or else to discover and identify the yet unknown counterpartsof the TeV sources.

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.
