Scientific paper

Clear evidences of orbital phase-dependent interactions between the two pulsars of the relativistic double neutron star binary PSR J0737-3039 are seen both in radio and X-rays observations. In particular, XMM recently discovered the X-ray brightening of PSR B via energy transfer from PSR A, a process probably correlated with the strong radio intensity fluctuations of PSR B seen along the orbit. No other X-ray observatory of the current generation (or foreseen within the next decade) will be able to yield better information, and considering the disappearance of PSR B (March 2008) in the radio band, XMM offers the exclusive opportuinity to monitor this evolving pulsar and its related neutron star surface thermodynamics.
