Msh15-56 Sw, Xmm-Newton Proposal 02042701

Scientific paper

We propose two XMM observations of the archetypical composite supernova remnant MSH15-56 (G326.3-1.8). We have detected a faint point source and diffuse nebula with Chandra which appear to be the compact object and it associated pulsar wind nebula. These two XMM observations will confirm the identification of the object as an X-ray synchrotron nebula, its association with the larger supernova remnant, and the age of the supernova remnant. The inferred properties of the pulsar from the Chandra data indicate that this object might be in an intermediate region between normal radio pulsars and radio-quiet neutron stars.
