Scientific paper
We propose to continue our XMM-Newton observations of new magnetic CVs found in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. Our results from the first 2 yrs include the identification of the base level of X-ray flux from objects in the lowest states of mass transfer as well as discovery of X-ray eclipses and flares. We propose continuing this work on 7 new systems found in the latest SDSS data, including 3 confirmed Polars and 4 likely Polars/Intermediate Polars. We exploit the high sensitivity and large energy coverage of XMM-Newton to delineate the shock vs blob heating in the typical low accretion regimes encountered in the SDSS data compared to previous X-ray surveys. Our results indicate that low accretion rate systems may represent a large fraction of the magnetic CV population.
