Scientific paper

XMM-Newton has revolutionized the study of X-ray sources in nearby galaxies such as NGC 1313, a barred spiral galaxy that is 3.7 Mpc away. This contains two ultraluminous X-ray sources, and SN 1978K, the first supernova remnant recognized from its X-ray flux. NGC 1313 is close enough that XMM-Newton can perform detailed simultaneous spectroscopic and timing studies of all of them. In Cycle 2, we were awarded time to perform 7 Priority A observations as the first stage in a long-term program of monitoring the known sources, searching for new transients, and determining the diffuse emission component. Here we propose to continue this campaign by performing 4 pointings of 10 ksec and 2 pointings of 50 ksec to study the sources on time scales ranging from seconds to months.
