Abstract	G296.1-0.5 is a bright, relatively nearby supernova remnant whose spectrum andmorphology indicate a complex shock structure associated with its interactionwith a nonuniform medium. A partial-shell morphology is accompanied by aspectrum whose abundance properties are suggestive of an interaction with thewind from the massive progenitor. The low absorption and high luminosity makethis an important remnant for the study of such a scenario. In addition, ourinitial observations reveal the presence of a bursting X-ray source whoseproperties may be similar to those of magnetars. We propose XMM-Newtonobservations to investigate the emission from the bright southwest portion ofthe remnant, for which our earlier observations were contaminated by soft proton flares.

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.
