We propose to test the hypothesis that the cataclysmic variablesHS Cam (RX J0719.2+6557) and HT Cam (RX J0757.0+6306) are two shortperiod intermediate polars. While an alternative interpretation ispossible for each source based on the optical data, XMMNewton observations caneasily provide the distinctive features: (i) the shape of the orbital variationof the Xray intensity, and (ii) coherent Xray pulsations caused by the spin ofthe white dwarf. We therefore propose short 15 and 13 ksec observations ofthese sources which is sufficient to identify these features. truncated!, Please see actual data for full text [truncated!, Please see actual data for full text]
