Scientific paper

We propose to continue our monitoring campaign using XMM-Newton and Chandra of the inner 1.2 square degree region centered on the Galactic Center. We will be able to detect transients in this region with a peak luminosity of 1E33-1E35 ergs/s, 10 to 1000 times more sensitive than what is possible with other satellites (i.e., RXTE and INTEGRAL). This allows us to observe a very poorly studied group of transients and to follow the luminosity behavior of faint (~1E36 ergs/s) persistent sources.
