Scientific paper

The Fermi Gamma-ray Observatory has discovered several transient sources of GeV gamma rays near the Galactic plane. The nature of these Galactic gamma-ray transients is currently not known. We propose XMM-Newton ToO observations of new transients discovered with the Fermi LAT in the Galactic plane. The XMM-Newton observations will enable us to more accurately localize the transients, identify counterparts at other wavelengths, determine their X-ray flux and spectrum, and characterize their variability. This proposal is part of a multiwavelength program that includes observations at radio and TeV energies.
