Abstract	We propose to observe for the first time the south-eastern part of theunidentified very high energy E>100 GeV gamma-ray source HESSvirgulJ1614-518. In arecent XMM-Newton observation (36 ksec) of the north-eastern part of thissource, extended (FWHM virgul8.),non-thermal X-ray emission has been detected with anenergy flux f(2-10)virgul1.5x10^{-12}cgs. The morphology of the X-ray emittingregion is similar to the morphology of HESSvirgulJ1614-518.With the proposedobservation of 40virgulksec of the south-eastern part of HESSvirgulJ1614-518 which has sofar not beeen covered by X-ray observations, we want to search for X-rayemission from this region of HESSvirgulJ1614-518 which would clearly establish theclose connection between X-ray and VHE emission.

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.
