Description | As hybrids of NLS1s and blazars, the recently discovered gamma-ray emitting NLS1s excited a great interests to the AGN community. With relatively small black hole (BH) mass and accreting close to Eddington, these NLS1s provides a new perspective to investigate the properties and formation of jets and their coupling with BH accretion. However, gamma-ray emitting NLS1s are rare and there are only sevend significantly detected in the gamma-ray band and being studied so far. We propose to observe a newly discovered gamma-ray NLS1 with XMM-Newton in the X-ray, UV and optical bands. These observations will help to complete the missing X-ray spectral and temporal information and constructing its broad band SED, which are crucial for modeling and constraining the jet parameters in this object. |

Mission Description | The European Space Agency's (ESA) X-ray Multi-Mirror Mission (XMM-Newton) was launched by an Ariane 504 on December 10th 1999. XMM-Newton is ESA's 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 Earth's 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. |
