Scientific paper

This XMM program is aimed at studying the quiescent state of the Anomalous X-ray Pulsar (AXP) XTE J1810-197. The transient X-ray behaviour of this source is making possible to study its properties over an unprecedented range of flux levels and energies. Moreover, the recent detetion of XTE J1810-197 as one of the brightest (fading) radio pulsars (a unique property amongst AXPs) make even more compelling the need of carrying out simultaneous multiwavelength observations and of considering its broad band emission as a whole when modelling the timing and spectral properties. Thus, this source represents a "Rosetta stone" for our understanding of the nature and emission mechanism of AXPs.
