Abstract | The discovery of variable gamma-ray emission from narrow-line Seyfert 1s posesintriguing questions about the formation of relativistic jets, the mechanisms ofhigh-energy production, and the jet-disc connection. We propose a 70 ksecXMM-Newton observation of the gamma-ray NLSy1 1H 0323+342 that will give us thepossibility to investigate the nature of the soft excess and the presence of theIron emission line, inferring important information about the BH spin and theregion of accretion disc responsible for the X-ray emission. Thanks to XMM andFermi-LAT we will also be able to build a detailed SED and study the relationbetween the accretion and jet power in 1H 0323+342, providing for the first timea comprehensive picture of the disc-jet connection in gamma-ray NLSy1. |

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. |
