Abstract
We report results for the X-ray spectrum of a millisecond pulsar, PSR J2124–3358 observed with ASCA. This pulsar is an isolated 4.9 ms pulsar (Bailes et al 1997). Its X-ray pulsation was detected with ROSAT HRI in the 0.1 - 2.4 keV band(Becker & Trümper 1998). The pulse profile was broad, and there is an indication of a secondary peak. Due to the lack of spectral information, the nature of the X-ray emission was unclear. An ASCA observation of this pulsar was carried out in May 1998, and provided the X-ray spectrum in the energy band from 0.5 to 10.0 keV. Due to poor statistics, the X-ray pulsation was not confirmed by ASCA.
