Scientific paper
We propose to observe the newly discovered intermediate polar (IP) 1RXSJ062518.2+733433. This object is one out of only 5 known IPs showing a distinct soft X-ray component. With XMM's large effective area we will achieve data with a high spectral and time resolution in X-rays, optical and the near UV. We thus will determine the spin-period of the white dwarf, the shape and positions of the extended accretion regions on the white dwarf, and the accretion geometry, including the mechanisms of interaction between the magnetic field and the accreted matter, and the processes of energy-release. The structure of the accretion curtain can be analysed by studying the time-dependent absorption in both, the hard and soft X-ray components - tracers of material in completely different states.
