Scientific paper

With the requested observation, we will obtain an outstandingly high S/N X-ray pulsed light-curve of the brightest recycled pulsar in the sky -- PSR 1821-24 -- to search for bridge emission, persistent emission, and to deliver an important observational constraint for pulsar emission models; we will demonstrate the end-to-end absolute timing capabilities of the HRC-S detector, up to an accuracy of 8 micro-seconds, and provide the community with a calibration resource; we will search for additional millisecond X-ray pulsars among the resolved emission of M28; we will search for the optical counterparts of identified X-ray sources with archival HST imaging; and we will search for the unusual type-I X-ray burster housed in M28.
