Scientific paper

We propose XMM-Newton observations of two hard X--ray transients containing fast spinning and/or high magnetic field neutron stars to probe their quiescent emission. Due to their faintness these sources are likely in a regime which does not allow matter to fall directly onto the neutron star surface (propeller state). The proposed observations will allow us to study 4U 0115+63 and V0332+53 at the deepest levels ever observed for this class of sources to shed light on the physics of the disk-magnetosphere interaction and on the heating of the magnetic polar caps in the high magnetic field regime.
