The eROSITA X-ray telescope on SRG
P. Predehl, R. Andritschke, V. Arefiev +90
eROSITA (extended ROentgen Survey with an Imaging Telescope Array) is the primary instrument on the Spectrum-Roentgen-Gamma (SRG) mission, which was successfully launched on July 1…
Cyclotron lines in highly magnetized neutron stars
R. Staubert, J. Trümper, E. Kendziorra +10
Cyclotron lines, also called cyclotron resonant scattering features (CRSF) are spectral features, generally appearing in absorption, in the X-ray spectra of objects containing high…
The needle in the haystack - Where to look for more isolated cooling neutron stars
B. Posselt, S. B. Popov, F. Haberl +4
Context: Isolated cooling neutron stars with thermal X-ray emission remain rarely detected objects despite many searches investigating the ROSAT data. Aims: We simulate the populat…
The Puzzles of RX J1856.5-3754: Neutron Star or Quark Star?
J. E. Truemper, V. Burwitz, F. Haberl +1
We discuss recent Chandra and XMM-Newton observations of the bright isolated neutron star RX J1856.5-3754 and suggest that the absence of any line features is due to effects of a h…
A phase-dependent absorption line in the spectrum of the X-ray pulsar RX J0720.4-3125
F. Haberl, V. E. Zavlin, J. Truemper +1
The XMM-Newton spectra of the isolated neutron star RX J0720.4-3125 show deviations from a Planckian energy distribution below 400 eV, similar to the spectra of RBS1223, another lo…
The thermal radiation of the isolated neutron star RX J1856.5-3754 observed with Chandra and XMM-Newton
V. Burwitz, F. Haberl, R. Neuhaeuser +3
We present results of the analysis of data collected in 57-ks XMM-Newton and 505-ks Chandra observations of the nearby ~= 120 pc isolated neutron star RX J1856.5-3754. We confirm m…
