Abstract	The nearby type 1.8 Seyfert galaxy IRAS 13197-1627 shows evidence for some ofthe strongest accretion disk reflection observed among local, Compton-thin AGN.This indicates an extreme accretion geometry in which the intrinsic continuumemission experiences strong gravitational light bending, resulting in an X-rayspectrum dominated by reflection from the inner accretion disk. We request acoordinated broadband X-ray observation of this remarkable source with XMM andNuSTAR. This will enable us to robustly confirm the extreme reflection, andutilize the full potential of the latest models to measure the black hole spinand constrain the coronal geometry, self-consistently accounting for both therelative strength and the profile of the reflected 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.
