Scientific paper

We propose an 80-ks ACIS-I observation of the energy source that created the high-energy outflows Herbig-Haro 80/81 the most luminous object of this type in radio, optical, and X-rays. Do the X-rays previously detected near this source come from an extended shock due to high-velocity material or do they arise directly from a massive proto- or pre-main-sequence (PMS) star? This observation will attempt to answer this question using a Chandra high-resolution, high-sensitivity image, the spectrum, and possible variability to diagnose the nature of the X-ray source or sources. Secondary goals are to detect HH 80 North and to measure the spectra of two unusually bright X-ray sources identified with optical nebulosity, IR emission, and continuum radio sources.
