| Abstract | Understanding the emission from X-ray binaries in high-redshift galaxiesis of utmost importance to understanding the heating of the primordialIGM. This program, to observe five starbursting, High Mass X-ray Binary(HMXB)-dominated galaxies, for a total of 1.49 Ms with NuSTAR and 207ks with XMM-Newton, will provide a representative sample of starburstgalaxies for establishing the connection between the 12-25~keV emissionarising from neutron star and black hole populations and their host galaxyproperties that is highly r^ant to high-z galaxies. |

| 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. |
