Eridanus Hole, Mbm 20, Xmm-Newton Proposal 02039002

Scientific paper

We propose a study of the angular correlation in the diffuse X-ray background pointing toward a low hydrogen column density, high latitude line of sight near the Eridanus x-ray enhancement. The observation will allow an accurate determination of the angular autocorrelation function on the scale 0'.5-30' which is almost unexplored so far, and which is expected to contain information on the X-ray emission due to the Warm-Hot Intergalactic Medium. The contribution of the foreground will be removed using a pointing toward MBM20, a nearby high density cloud. The shadow of the cloud will also be used to study the energy distribution of the X-ray foreground in the energy range 0.2-2 keV, to separate O-VII, O-VIII and Fe-XVII lines and study the composition and evolution of the local bubble.
