Scientific paper

AXAF's combined high spatial and spectral resolution and wide bandpass make it an unrivalled instrument for the study of X-ray source populations in nearby galaxies. We propose a deep observation of the face-on Local Group spiral galaxy M33 with the primary goals of classifying the bright X-ray sources and of making the most sensitive determination yet of the faint source luminosity function in a late-type spiral. Our secondary goals are to study the M33 hot interstellar medium, to obtain a detailed spectrum of the nuclear source and to detect background AGN which may be used as probes of the M33 ISM.
