Abstract	Long GRBs signal the death of massive stars. The afterglow emission can be usedto probe the progenitor ambient through a detailed study of the absorptionpattern. This has been done at optical wavelengths with impressive results. Wepropose here to carry out similar studies in the X-ray band with high resolutionspectroscopy. Taking advantage of Swift observations, we propose to trigger TOOson selected bright GRBs within 1 d from their explosions. These data will allowus to have access to an unprecedented statistics. Detailed studies of theabsorption pattern imprinted in the X-ray spectrum by the circumburst materialas well as the host galaxy ISM can be carried out, allowing us to shed light onthe material metallicity, composition and distance.

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.
