Detailed X-ray spectroscopy of the magnetar 1E 2259+586
D. Pizzocaro, A. Tiengo, S. Mereghetti +7
Magnetic field geometry is expected to play a fundamental role in magnetar activity. The discovery of a phase-variable absorption feature in the X-ray spectrum of SGR 0418+5729, in…
Long X-ray flares from the central source in RCW 103
P. Esposito, A. De Luca, R. Turolla +7
We observed the slowly revolving pulsar 1E 161348-5055 (1E 1613, spin period of 6.67 h) in the supernova remnant RCW 103 twice with XMM-Newton and once with the Very Large Telescop…
Discovery of periodic dips in the brightest hard X-ray source of M31 with EXTraS
M. Marelli, A. Tiengo, A. De Luca +9
We performed a search for eclipsing and dipping sources in the archive of the EXTraS project - a systematic characterization of the temporal behaviour of XMM-Newton point sources.…
Behind the dust curtain: the spectacular case of GRB 160623A
F. Pintore, A. Tiengo, S. Mereghetti +6
We report on the X-ray dust-scattering features observed around the afterglow of the gamma ray burst GRB 160623A. With an XMM-Newton observation carried out ~2 days after the burst…
A systematic analysis of the XMM-Newton background: IV. Origin of the unfocused and focused components
F. Gastaldello, S. Ghizzardi, M. Marelli +6
We show the results obtained in the FP7 European program EXTraS and in the ESA R&D ATHENA activity AREMBES aimed at a deeper understanding of the XMM-Newton background to better de…
A systematic analysis of the XMM-Newton background: III. Impact of the magnetospheric environment
Simona Ghizzardi, Martino Marelli, David Salvetti +6
A detailed characterization of the particle induced background is fundamental for many of the scientific objectives of the Athena X-ray telescope, thus an adequate knowledge of the…
