X-ray observations of the nearby Rotating Radio Transient PSR J0736--6304

PSR J07366304 is a recently discovered middleaged (500 kyr) Rotating RadioTransient (RRAT) pulsar with a long period of 4.86 s, a high magnetic field of3*10^13 G and a low spindown luminosity of 5*10^31 erg s^1. The low distance <1 kpc suggests that it is the excellent target for Xray observations and can bethe second RRAT detected in Xrays. On the PPdot pulsar diagram it is locatedjust between the Xray isolated neutron stars, magnetars, high magnetic fieldpulsars and PSR J18191458 the only RRAT so far detected in Xrays. Wepropose XMMNewton observations of PSR J07366304 to study its Xray properties,which can justify a link between these classes of NSs. truncated!, Please see actual data for full text [truncated!, Please see actual data for full text]
