M82, Xmm-Newton Proposal 02060801

Scientific paper

We have started a pilot project to measure the ISM enrichment in a starburst episode, by comparing infrared-derived stellar metallicities with X-ray derived gaseous ones. Preliminary results obtained from archival XMM data seem promising, but are severely hampered by low statistics and leave the most important issues unsolved. We propose to use the RGS onboard XMM to obtain high quality (matching that of the infrared spectra we obtained at the TNG) X-ray spectra of the template starburst galaxies M82 and NGC4449, in order to derive reliable elemental abundances and provide the first measurement of the ISM enrichment.
