The Anomalous X-ray Pulsars
S. Mereghetti, L. Chiarlone, G. L. Israel +1
The Anomalous X-ray Pulsars (AXPs) are a small class of pulsars with spin periods in the 6-12 s range, very soft X-ray spectra, secular spin down on time scales of ~10^3-10^5 years…
Application of an objective method for the identification of Young Star Groupings in spiral galaxies
R. Capuzzo-Dolcetta, A. Vicari, P. Battinelli +1
We present some results of the application of our automatic technique for the identification of Young Star Groupings (YSGs) in spiral galaxies. In this report we discuss our new re…
The Anomalous X-ray Pulsars
S. Mereghetti
The observational properties of the six known Anomalous X-ray Pulsars are described in the context of the main theoretical models for this enigmatic class of objects.
A Physical Model for Baryons in Clusters of Galaxies
P. Tozzi, A. Cavaliere, N. Menci
The X-ray emission from clusters of galaxies is one of the best observational probe to investigate the distribution of dark matter at intermediate and high redshifts. Since the dis…
