Scientific paper

We propose XMM-Newton observations of three Galactic supernova remnants with positionally coincident radio pulsars in order to confirm or refute the plausible connection between the supposedly old (but possibly very young) pulsars and the supernova remnants. Based on this we could (i) constrain the Galactic population of neutron stars born spinning slowly, (ii) determine any connection between the new class of so-called anti-magnetars and normal radio pulsars, (iii) extend the grossly incomplete X-ray catalog of Galactic supernova remnants, and (iv) if the pulsars are not related to the remnants, look for a central compact object and/or a pulsar wind nebula.
