Scientific paper

We propose a 30 ksec observation of the west limb of the Puppis A supernova remnant to study Ne-rich ejecta. We discovered evidence of enhanced X-ray line emission from highly ionized Ne in archival ASCA data, but otherwise, Puppis A does not yield direct evidence of X-ray emitting ejecta. The good angular resolution and high throughput of XMM-Newton will enable us to isolate the Ne ejecta from the surrounding interstellar medium and perform spectroscopic studies to measure the ejecta abundances. This program thus provides a unique opportunity to study the X-ray emitting nucleosynthesis products in Puppis A.
