Scientific paper

We propose to conduct an ambitious campaign of coordinated multiwavelength observations of the former supersoft X-ray binary and current magnetic propeller AE Aqr. Recent XMM observations have thrown into doubt the source of the X-ray emission and the heating of the optical and UV emission line regions. We propose to observe AE Aqr for 2 binary orbits with the Chandra HETG to measure the radial velocity variations of the X-ray emission lines and constrain the plasma density. We also propose to obtain 6 orbits of HST high-resolution time-tagged UV spectroscopy and 12 hrs of VLA time, to which we will add mm through gamma-ray data. These data will provide the most complete picture of the locations, mass motions, energetics, and interrelationships of the various emission regions.
