The runaway O-type binary HD 14633 was likely ejected from the cluster of its birth by dynamical interactions in the dense environment. Recent XMM-Newton observations have detected a soft, nonthermal X-ray flux that likely originates in a colliding wind shock region in the binary. The large variation in system separation between periastron and apastron will contribute to X-ray flux and spectral variability during the orbit. We propose observations with XMM-Newton that will measure the variable intra-system absorption, probe the geometry and physical parameters of the wind shock region, and investigate abundance anomalies in the HD 14633 binary system.
