Abstract
RE 0751+14 is a member of the class of Soft Intermediate Polars. Unlik e classical Intermediate Polars, they are characterized by the presenc e of a soft component in their X-ray spectra, in addition to the hard component. typical of these systems. The broad-band coverage of the Na rrow-Field instruments on board BeppoSAX is ideal for the study of suc h objects. Here we report the preliminary results of the analysis of a BeppoSAX pointing to RE 0751+14. Both components are clearly detected , and their temperature determined (similar to 50 eV and similar to 40 keV), enabling the possibility of studying them simultaneously.
