Scientific paper

XMM observations for 50ks of the first unidentified and spatially resolved source of very high energy (VHE) gamma-ray emission are proposed. These observations will help to identify the origin of the emission from this source detected at energies above 0.5 TeV (Aharonian et al. 2002,2004). The object (TeV J2032+4130) is of extended origin with a diameter of 12 arcmin. So far, no counterpart in any other wavelength has been identified even though the direction of the TeV source is constrained within a circular region with a diameter of 3 arcmin (68% c.l.). A minimum synchrotron X-ray emission of 5x10^{-12} erg/cm^2/s (0.2-12 keV) is expected for a pure leptonic origin of the VHE emission, ideally suited to be detected, resolved and spectrally studied with XMM observations.
