Abstract

The Crab pulsar is the best studied rotation powered pulsar. We report the results obtained in the 3–35 keV energy band with the X-ray monitor, JEM–X, on ESAs recently launched γ-ray mission, INTEGRAL.

Key words: pulsars: individual: PSR B0531+21 / X-rays: stars / instrumentation: detectors

^*

Based on observations with INTEGRAL, an ESA project with instruments and science data centre funded by ESA member states (especially the PI countries: Denmark, France, Germany, Italy, Switzerland, Spain), Czech Republic and Poland, and with the participation of Russia and the USA.
