Scientific paper

PSR B0943+10 is the best studied radio pulsar exhibiting intriguing drifting subpulses and the only one to have been detected in the X-rays and is thus the prime target for studying the relationship between the radio and X-ray emission. We propose observations which will definitely allow us to determine whether the X-ray spectrum is thermal or non-thermal and thus distinguish between vacuum-gap like- and other pulsar emission models. The drifting subpulses in PSR B0943+10 exhibit two modes, one where the drifting is clear and the pulses are strong (B-mode) and one where they are not (Q-mode). Coordinating these XMM-Newton observations with simultaneous radio observations will allow us to select X-rays associated with the two modes and thus determine whether their spectra differ.
