Scientific paper

The discovery of millisecond variability in the hard (2.5-30 keV) emission of neutron-star low-mass x-ray binaries opened a new window on the study of the accretion flow and the effects of strong gravitational fields in these systems. We plan to use XMM-Newton to search for millisecond variability in the soft x-ray band (0.4-2.5 keV), which is inaccessible to RXTE, from sources which have shown kHz quasiperiodic oscillations (QPOs) in hard x-rays. This observations will place important constraints on models of the kHz QPOs.
