Probing magnetars magnetosphere through X-ray polarization measurements
Roberto Taverna, Fabio Muleri, Roberto Turolla +3
The study of magnetars is of particular relevance since these objects are the only laboratories where the physics in ultra-strong magnetic fields can be directly tested. Until now,…
A variable absorption feature in the X-ray spectrum of a magnetar
Andrea Tiengo, Paolo Esposito, Sandro Mereghetti +9
Soft gamma-ray repeaters (SGRs) and anomalous X-ray pulsars (AXPs) are slowly rotating, isolated neutron stars that sporadically undergo episodes of long-term flux enhancement (out…
The variable X-ray emission of PSR B0943+10
Sandro Mereghetti, Andrea Tiengo, Paolo Esposito +1
The old pulsar PSR B0943+10 (P=1.1 s, characteristic age tau=5 Myr) is the best example of mode-switching radio pulsar. Its radio emission alternates between a highly organized sta…
Low-magnetic-field magnetars
R. Turolla, P. Esposito
It is now widely accepted that soft gamma repeaters and anomalous X-ray pulsars are the observational manifestations of magnetars, i.e. sources powered by their own magnetic energy…
