Abstract	We propose the observation with XMM-Newton of a sample of 12 optically selectedNarrow-Line Seyfert 1 galaxies (NLS1) discovered in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey(SDSS) and never observed in X-rays. The key aim of this project is the study ofthe X-ray spectral properties and correlations of optically selected NLS1. Thesuperior capabilities of XMM will allow to deconvolve spectral components ifappropriate. The results will be compared with those of X-ray selected NLS1samples and classical Seyfert-1s to discuss/infer systematic trends of the X-rayspectral shape as a function of the FWHM of (Hbeta) which, combined withluminosity, allows to estimate the Eddington ratio and the mass of the centralblack hole.

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.
