Abstract	A pulsar wind nebula (PWN) inside a supernova remnant (SNR) is an importantlaboratory for studying neutron star formation and high energy particleacceleration. This is often accomplished by fitting the observed properties of aPWN inside a SNR with a perhaps oversimplified evolutionary model for suchsource. Applying such a model to PWN G54.1+0.3 suggests a virgul20 Solar Massprogenitor which exploded inside a low density medium and that leptons areaccelerated to >1 PeV. In this proposal, we request the XMM and NuStarobservations needed to not only test the SNR and hard X-ray properties predictedby our model, but determine its distance and where inside the PWN the highestenergy leptons are produced.

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.
