Abstract
A new class of integrable Newton systems in R-n is presented. They are char acterized by the existence of two quadratic integrals of motion of so-calle d cofactor type, and are therefore called cofactor pair systems. This class includes as special cases conservative systems separable in elliptic or pa rabolic coordinates, as well as many Newton systems previously derived as r eductions of soliton hierarchies.
