XMM-Newton observations of three X-ray emitting pulsars.
Abstract
We present analysis of XMM-Newton observations of three radio pulsars which are previously known X-ray emitters: PSR 0355+54, PSR J0538+2819 and PSR B1706- 44. These observations are part of a program of pulsar observations in the XMM- Newton Optical Monitor Team's Guaranteed time program. Results presented include spectral fitting to determine neutron star parameters and emission processes; spatial analysis and the search for X-ray nebulousity; and temporal analysis to search for any X-ray periodicities.
