Chandra Proposal Id #04500034

Scientific paper

We propose to obtain contemporaneous X-ray and Optical observations of the Crab pulsar in order to determine the relative phase between the X-ray and optical pulses. Optical observations will be performed at Skinakas observatory of the university of Crete, Greece, using MPE's high speed optical photometer OPTIMA which provides an absolute time accuracy of 2-4 microseconds. In the HRC-S timing mode which we plan to use the accuracy to measure the X-ray pulse arriv l time is 100 microseconds. This is the first experiment which aims to determine the relative phase between the optical and X-ray wave bands.
