Scientific paper

We propose to observe the young (2-6 Myr) open cluster around the hot (O8III) star lambda Orionis. We will obtain a high-resolution spectrum of the central hot star with RGS as well as EPIC imaging and spectra of the surrounding cluster. Our goal is to study the X-ray properties of the lambda Ori wind and of pre-main sequence cluster members, and to compare them with those of the twin sigma Ori cluster, in order to investigate the influence of the ambient environment on stellar evolution and activity.
