Unveiling the enigmatic nature of the gamma-ray source 2FGL J1544.5-1126
Abstract
Here we require a 30ks XMM pointing in order to unveil the nature of the enigmatic gamma-ray source 2FGL J1544.5-1126. This source was first supposed to be an AGN, hence an extragalactic object; however, X-ray and optical data revealed its galactic nature, but at present it has no clear classification. The proposed observation with XMM will allow us to reveal its emission properties thus clarifying its hidden nature.
