ABSTRACT
RX J1605.3+3249 is one of the intriguing isolated neutron stars (INSs) known as the ``Magnificent Seven'' (M7). An evolutionary link with magnetars may explain why they rotate more slowly, are hotter, and have higher magnetic fields than other pulsars of similar age. A recent XMM-Newton observation finally revealed the neutron star spin period. The amplitude of the modulation is strongly energy-dependent. Further observations are extremely important to determine a precise timing solution, as well as to perform phase-resolved spectroscopy. These will provide invaluable information on the geometry of the emitting regions, and will allow us to precisely determine the high value of spin down hinted by analysis of archival data, which places the source closer to a magnetar than any other M7 INS.
