Simultaneous XMM-Newton Radio observations of the mode-switching radio pulsar PSR B1822-09
Abstract
With XMM-Newton, GMRT and LOFAR observations of the mode-changing near-aligned pulsar PSR B0943+10 we discovered synchronous switching in the radio and X-ray emission properties. These findings supported radio indications for rapid, global changes to the conditions in the magnetosphere. PSR B1822-09 is a fascinating orthogonal pulsar exhibiting similar mode switching in the radio band. We organised for this pulsar a similar campaign of simultaneous XMM-Newton, GMRT, WSRT and Lovell observations. In this presentation we will report the results from the latter campaign and discuss these in comparison with those for PSR B0943+10 in the context of competing theoretical emission models.
