Scientific paper

PSR J1856+0245 is a young, energetic pulsar recently discovered by our group in the Arecibo PALFA radio-pulsar survey. It is a new addition to the small sample of Vela-like pulsars, which often have observable X-ray pulsar wind nebulae. Indeed, archival ASCA data contain the extended source AX J1856+0245, which is coincident with the radio pulsar position and is thus an excellent pulsar wind nebula candidate. We propose to image this X-ray source with XMM-Newton, in order to determine its nature and relation to PSR J1856+0245.
