The Magnificent Seven: Close-by Cooling Neutron Stars?
A. Treves, S. B. Popov, M. Colpi +2
We model Galactic populations of accreting and cooling isolated neutron stars in the attempt to explore their link with a new class of dim soft X-ray sources revealed by ROSAT. For…
The 35-day cycle in Her X-1 as observational appearance of freely precessing neutron star and forcedly precessing accretion disk
N. A. Ketsaris, M. Kuster, K. A. Postnov +4
A careful analysis of X-ray light curves and pulse profiles of Her X-1 obtained over more than 20 years strongly evidences for free precession of a magnetized neutron star with rot…
Log N -- Log S distributions of accreting and cooling isolated neutron stars
S. B. Popov, M. Colpi, M. E. Prokhorov +2
We model populations of isolated neutron stars in the Galaxy following their orbital and magneto-rotational evolution. It is shown that accretors become more abundant than coolers…
Isolated Neutron Stars in the Galaxy
S. B. Popov, M. E. Prokhorov, M. Colpi +3
In this article we briefly review our recent results on evolution and properties of isolated neutron stars (INSs) in the Galaxy. As the first step we calculate a {\it census} of IN…
Gravitational Wave Astronomy: in Anticipation of First Sources to be Detected
L. P. Grishchuk, V. M. Lipunov, K. A. Postnov +2
The first generation of long-baseline laser interferometric detectors of gravitational waves will start collecting data in 2001-2003. We carefully analyse their planned performance…
Constrains on parameters of magnetic field decay for accreting isolated neutron stars
S. B. Popov, M. E. Prokhorov
The influence of exponential magnetic field decay (MFD) on the spin evolution of isolated neutron stars is studied. The ROSAT observations of several X-ray sources, which can be ac…
