Scientific paper

After a few remarks about the early history of the subject we present a short review of the present observational situation regarding the X-ray emission from isolated neutron stars. In total 32 objects have been detected with ROSAT, the majority of which are radio pulsars showing non -thermal (magnetospheric) emission. For three radio pulsars and three point sources in SNRs thermal emission has been seen which probably comes from the photospheric of the cooling neutron star. A third class comprising the objects represents neutron stars according matter from the interstellar medium.
