Quiet but still bright: XMM-Newton observations of the soft gamma-ray repeater SGR 0526-66

A. Tiengo, P. Esposito, S. Mereghetti +6

SGR 0526-66 was the first soft gamma-ray repeater (SGR) from which a giant flare was detected in March 1979, suggesting the existence of magnetars, i.e. neutron stars powered by th…

Spin-down rate and inferred dipole magnetic field of the soft gamma-ray repeater SGR 1627-41

P. Esposito, M. Burgay, A. Possenti +11

Using Chandra data taken on 2008 June, we detected pulsations at 2.59439(4) s in the soft gamma-ray repeater SGR 1627-41. This is the second measurement of the source spin period a…

The Fundamental Plane of Accretion Onto Black Holes with Dynamical Masses

Kayhan Gultekin, Edward M. Cackett, Jon M. Miller +3

Black hole accretion and jet production are areas of intensive study in astrophysics. Recent work has found a relation between radio luminosity, X-ray luminosity, and black hole ma…

Discovery of extended X-ray emission around the highly magnetic RRAT J1819-1458

N. Rea, M. A. McLaughlin, B. M. Gaensler +7

We report on the discovery of extended X-ray emission around the high magnetic field Rotating Radio Transient J1819-1458. Using a 30ks Chandra ACIS-S observation, we found signific…

A Radio Pulsar/X-ray Binary Link

Anne M. Archibald, Ingrid H. Stairs, Scott M. Ransom +15

Radio pulsars with millisecond spin periods are thought to have been spun up by transfer of matter and angular momentum from a low-mass companion star during an X-ray-emitting phas…

Type I X-ray Bursts from the Neutron-star Transient XTE J1701-462

Dacheng Lin, Diego Altamirano, Jeroen Homan +3

The neutron-star X-ray transient XTE J1701-462 was observed for 3 Ms with \xte during its 2006-2007 outburst. Here we report on the discovery of three type-I X-ray bursts fro…
