Our main scientific goal is to use the capabilities of XMM/RGS to determine the
physical characteristics of the X-ray emission (during quiescent and flaring
state) of the visual binary 2RE J0241-53, and relate them to
the properties of the stellar photospheres.
2RE J0241-53 (nicknamed Horace) is a binary of
active X-ray emitting stars, classified as a member of an association
of young Post-T-Tauri stars.
In these pages, I list the various contributions and
preliminary results obtained so far.
This is an international project.
