Description NGC3894 is one of the only three gamma-ray loud young radio sources and a
Compton-thick AGN candidate. This combination makes it uniquely suitable to
investigate the origin of the X-ray and high-energy emission in young radio
sources and the feedback of the expanding source in a dense medium. We request
70 ksec XMM observation to confirm the tentative detection of Fe Kalpha emission
line reported with Chandra. The X-ray continuum will be jointly modeled the XMM
data with our existing NuSTAR data, allowing us to differentiate between
reflection vs direct emission as the dominant X-ray spectral component. The
X-ray spectrum and radio-to-gamma-ray data will enable tests of radiative and
dynamical models for young radio sources with implications for an early feedback process with host galaxy.

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.
