Scientific paper

W51 is a Galactic radio complex consist of star forming regions (SFRs; W51A and W51B) and a supernova remnant (SNR; W51C). W51B and C are a particularly useful opportunity for the study of the interaction between a supernova remnant and star-forming regions. We propose joint XMM-Newton and Chandra observations of W51B/C. XMM-Newton will cover W51C where the large field of view and high throughput of XMM-Newton are ideal, while Chandra observation will cover W51B where superb angular resolution of Chandra is necessary. Our joint program will be effective to reveal the nature of the pulsar wind nebula, the origin of the central emission in SNR W51C, the origin of diffuse X-ray emission in W51B, and the star-formation history of W51B.
