✦ Synopsis

The Crab Nebula and the Pulsar were observed from 31th to 1st of August and from 6th to 7th September 1996 with the Narrow Field Instruments (NFI's) on board of BeppoSAX, during the Science Verification Phase. The fine time resolution (15 #s) and the high statistic of the data provided phase histogram of very good quality and well suited for phase resolved spectroscopy over the entire energy band (0.1-300 keV) covered by BeppoSAX payload. We present some results of the phase resolved spectral analysis.
