Scientific paper

We will observe RCW 49, a prominent giant H II region, and its ionizing
cluster Westerlund 2, an OB association containing at least a dozen OB
stars. Our observation consists of a single ACIS-I pointing, to resolve
and study the high-mass stellar population in the cluster ionizing the H
II region and to image the bubbles around the two Wolf-Rayet stars.
