Scientific paper

The high throughput X-ray astrophysics mission is the second cornerstone in ESA's long-term space science programme. The long-duration X-ray observatory consists of three heavily nested X-ray imaging telescopes coupled to X-ray CCD cameras and gratings which provide a high throughput facility for cosmic X-ray spectroscopy. The mission is due for launch in 1998 with an anticipated lifetime of over ten years. The basic mission including the model payload is described and the capability of the observatory to tackle some of the more important scientific priorities are highlighted. Examples of some of the type of results we can expect from the mission are also provided. This observatory should enable major advances in X-ray astrophysics to be made at the turn of the century.
