Scientific paper

We propose here to observe the sample of AXPs with the Chandra HRC-I in order to improve their X-ray positions (down to 1'' or better). This level of positional accuracy is indispensable to identify the optical/IR counterparts of AXPs in their crowded galactic plane fields. We plan to use the X-ray emission of known bright K-M spectral type stars within the field of view (FOV) of HRC-I which are nearby (within a radius of about 15') each AXP. We also will investigate the presence of extended emission around AXPs: in particular 2E2259+58, AXJ1844-0258 and 1E1841-04 are likely associated with known shell-like radio emission which will be studied in detail.
