Iras 16547-4247, Xmm-Newton Proposal 02009001

Scientific paper

We propose a 30 ksec EPIC observation of the luminous outflow source IRAS 16547-4247, recently discovered in the radio range. This is the first case of a radio outflow associated with a massive forming star. What makes this outflow remarkable is that it is associated with two symmetrical non-thermal radio lobes, emanating from a central thermal radio source interpreted as a collimated ionized jet. We want to investigate the relation between the radio, IR and X-ray emission, in particular the thermal (shock) vs. non-thermal (synchrotron) mechanisms, and compare with the microquasar XTE J1550-564, recently detected in X-rays, with which IRAS 16547-4247 shares intriguing observational similarities.
