Rbs1774, Xmm-Newton Proposal 02011501

Scientific paper

Isolated neutron stars hold the key to understand the structure and evolution of NSs and promise insights into the behaviour of matter at ultra-high densities. The seven ROSAT INSs identified to date offer an unique opportunity in this respect thanks to their clean thermal emission originating directly from the star surface. The aim is to obtain a high quality spectrum of the last of the ROSAT INS candidates to be studied in detail, RBS 1774. This will provide an accurate position, essential to allow an unambiguous identification of the optical counterpart; pin down the temperature of the surface emission; reveal any prominent spectral features or magnetospheric non-thermal component; find any pulsations to a limit of 2% semiamplitude.
