Scientific paper
We propose to perform high resolution spectroscopy and timing of the pulsars PSR B1951+32, PSR J1825-0935, PSR B2334+61, using XMM-Newton. The targets have characteristic ages from 4E4 to 2.3E5 yr and are within 2.5 kpc, thus they are excellent candidates for detecting both magnetospheric and thermal flux from the star surface. The first pulsar is a bright and complex X-ray source, still poorly studied, for which XMM-Newton can provide excellent spectral, timing and imaging information. The others have only been barely detected in the past, in particular one is a newly discovered X-ray pulsar that we found with a ~5 ks XMM-Newton snapshot. Deeper XMM-Newton observations will assess the thermal/non-thermal nature of the X-ray flux, making firmer constraints on the neutron star cooling models.
