Description CPD-28 2561 is the only known magnetic O-star without high-energy observations.
However, because of the particular geometry of this object, it represents a
crucial step towards a full understanding of the dynamic magnetospheres of
high-mass stars. We propose to fill this gap by observing it in X-rays as well
as in UV, both with high-resolution and with a monitoring to sample crucial
phases. These complementary data will help us constrain the energetics, shock
physics and 3D structure of the magnetosphere of this unique 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.
