V842 Cen underwent a nova eruption in 1986 and in 2008 a period of 57 s has beendetected in optical photometry, likely related with the white dwarf spin makingthe system a strong candidate of the intermediate polar class. We propose to usethe unique capabilities of XMMNewton to search for Xray emission andcharacterize the accretion process onto the likely magnetized white dwarf.
