Ngc 4472, Xmm-Newton Proposal 02001301

Scientific paper

We propose a 100 ksec observation of NGC 4472 to study the globular cluster (GC)-X-ray binary connection over a large field of view. These data will be especially useful for comparing the X-ray properties of metal rich and metal poor globular clusters and for comparing the spatial profiles of cluster and non-cluster sources. Wide field data are key because metal poor clusters are rare in the inner regions of galaxies and because different spatial profiles are predicted depending on whether non-GC XRBs are formed in the field or in GCs and then ejected. The broadband spectroscopy will allow testing of stellar wind models for the spectral differences as a function of metallicity. We will also search for eclipses to measure orbital periods.
