Abstract	The X-ray reflection spectrum from the inner parts of the accretion disk is oneof the key sources of information about the structure of the innermost regionsaround the black hole. While it has provided us with valuable details inradio-quiet AGN, few radio-loud objects have been studied with similar detail.However these studies of the innermost regions are needed, as it is there thatrelativistic jets are thought to be launched. Here, we propose to study thereflection spectrum of the broad-line radio galaxy 3C 109. 3C 109 is aparticularly interesting target as it is the only radio galaxy with an Eddingtonfraction exceeding unity. Our findings will be placed into context of studies ofreflection in other radio-loud and radio-quiet sources.

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.
