Abstract	We propose to observe with XMM-Newton in AO5 the atoll source 4U 1705-44. The Chandra observation of this source clearly indicates the presence of a broad(sigma about 0.7 keV) iron line. Both a relativistic disk line and a thermalComptonization broadening fit well the line profile. The superior sensitivity atthe iron line energy of XMM-Newton is needed to give a definite answer to theproblem of the origin of the broad iron line.

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.
