Abstract	Simultaneous XMM-Newton, GMRT and LOFAR observations of the mode-changingnear-aligned pulsar PSR B0943+10 revealed synchronous switching in the radio andX-ray emission properties. We just finished X-ray/radio observations of PSRB1822-09, an orthogonal pulsar exhibiting similar mode switching in the radioband. Given the great importance of the discoveries for understanding pulsarmagnetospheric physics, we ask for simultaneous XMM and radio observations ofthree nearby (< 1 kpc) moding and/or nulling pulsars, PSR J1946+1805, PSRJ0332+5434 and PSR J1239+2453, for 20 ks each. The objective is to detect theirX-ray counterparts in preparation for follow-up X-ray radio campaigns.

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.
