ABSTRACT
PSR B0943+10 is the best studied mode-switching radio pulsar. Its radio emission alternates between a highly organised state with regular drifting subpulses (B mode) and a chaotic emission pattern (Q mode). XMM-Newton observations showed remarkable X-ray variability correlated with the radio mode: during the fainter radio state the X-ray flux is more than twice larger than during the B-mode and X-ray pulsations are detected. Due to the limited spectral information it is not possible to discriminate between interpretations with very different physical implications for possible global changes in the magnetosphere. We propose a large program with coordinated radio observations on this unique target to gain insight into the pulsar emission mechanism expoiting the new diagnostic of X-ray variability.

PAPERS
Authors marked in red are (co-)investigators in the proposal

Classification of papers are:
- CLASS 1:   papers that present specific XMM-Newton observations
- CLASS 2: papers that refer to published XMM-Newton results with complementary observations, follow-up analysis, or theoretical analysis
- CLASS 3: further deliveries which resulted from the program and which are made available to the community (e.g. source catalogues, processed images or spectra in public data base)
- CLASS 4: comments and suggestions from PI
