Abstract	We propose observations of four candidates for X-ray supernova remnants (SNRs)in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC), which were detected by ROSAT and classifiedas SNR candidates based on their X-ray, radio and optical properties. Sevensources have already been observed (AO9, AO12, and AO13, Prop. IDs 65188, 72044,74180; AO11, VLP-LMC survey) and confirm the reliability of our candidateselection. The high sensitivity of XMM-Newton will allow us to detect SNRs thatare X-ray faint due to their age or ambient medium, and complete the sample ofknown SNRs to lower fluxes. We will be able to perform statistical studies by,e.g., constructing a more complete X-ray luminosity function of SNRs in the LMCand will obtain information about typical abundances, densities, and supernova energies.

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.
