Scientific paper

We propose to observe a known TeV blazar in outburst. The observation will be supported by coordinated ground-based observations at TeV energies. The main thrust of the proposed observation is to study flaring phenomenon on sub-hour timescales jointly at X-ray and TeV energies. XMM covers a critical spectral range for studying TeV blazars, because the SED of such sources peaks in or near its passing band. The data will also allow investigations of correlated variability of the X-ray and TeV emission, spectral hysteresis, and hardness-intensity correlation. The results may shed significant light on the properties of emitting regions in the jet of TeV blazars, emission mechanisms, and the composition of the jet (i.e., leptonic vs hadronic).
