Abstract	The puzzling family of Central Compact Objects (CCOs) in young supernovaremnants is represented by a small (<10) handful of young neutron stars which donot show any standard.. pulsar activity. Their overall properties are largelyunknown. We propose to observe CXO J085201.4-461753 and RX J1713.7-3941, twoamong the least studied members of the class. EPIC unprecedented throughputcoupled to time and spectral resolution will allow for a deep search forpulsations, as well as a detailed phase-resolved spectral analysis in case of apositive periodicity detection. Periodicity and phase-resolved spectra are thekey observations required to unravel the mysterious nature of CCOs and theirpossible relationships with other classes of sources such as AXPs and SGRs.

Mission Description	The European Space Agencys (ESA) X-ray Multi-Mirror Mission (XMM-Newton) was launched by an Ariane 504 on December 10th 1999. XMM-Newton is ESAs second cornerstone of the Horizon 2000 Science Programme. It carries 3 high throughput X-ray telescopes with an unprecedented effective area, and an optical monitor, the first flown on a X-ray observatory. The large collecting area and ability to make long uninterrupted exposures provide highly sensitive observations. Since Earths atmosphere blocks out all X-rays, only a telescope in space can detect and study celestial X-ray sources. The XMM-Newton mission is helping scientists to solve a number of cosmic mysteries, ranging from the enigmatic black holes to the origins of the Universe itself. Observing time on XMM-Newton is being made available to the scientific community, applying for observational periods on a competitive basis.
