Scientific paper

We propose a deep HETGS observation of the young stellar cluster NGC 2362. Only 5-7 Myrs old, NGC 2362 is one of the youngest clusters in our Galaxy. Unlike in most other star forming regions, this cluster is almost completely devoid of residual gas and it is somewhat deficient in low-mass stars. It main star, tau CMa, is actaully at least a double star with quite equal massive constituents and is believed that it already eveloved away from the zero-age main sequence (ZAMS). As part of our program to perform high resolution spectroscopy on very young early type O stars we observe tau CMa for 95 ks in order to search for X-ray emission from dense and hot plasmas. This cluster also enables us to study high resolution X-ray spectra of ZAMS B-type stars. stars and will provide
