Scientific paper

We have started a project aimed at measuring the ISM enrichment in a starburst episode, by comparing IR-derived stellar metallicities with X-ray derived gaseous ones. First results obtained from archival XMM data are promising, but are severely hampered by low statistics and leave several issues still unsolved. We propose to use the RGS onboard XMM to obtain high quality X-ray spectra of the starburst galaxy NGC3256, in order to derive hot gas abundances and tracing the ISM enrichment from the last burst of star formation. We also propose to obtain VLT-ISAAC IR spectra to measure the stellar abundances of NGC3256 and the ISM enrichment prior to the last burst of star formation.
