Comparison of distance measurements to dust clouds using GRB X-ray halos and 3D dust extinction
Barbara Šiljeg, Željka Bošnjak, Vibor Jelić +3
X-ray photons from energetic sources such as gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) can be scattered on dust clouds in the Milky Way, creating a time-evolving halo around the GRB position. X-ray…
A strongly magnetized pulsar within grasp of the Milky Way's supermassive black hole
N. Rea, P. Esposito, J. A. Pons +21
The center of our Galaxy hosts a supermassive black hole, Sagittarius (Sgr) A*. Young, massive stars within 0.5 pc of SgrA* are evidence of an episode of intense star formation nea…
The outburst decay of the low magnetic field magnetar SGR 0418+5729
N. Rea, G. L. Israel, J. A. Pons +20
We report on the long term X-ray monitoring of the outburst decay of the low magnetic field magnetar SGR 0418+5729, using all the available X-ray data obtained with RXTE, SWIFT, Ch…
A new low magnetic field magnetar: the 2011 outburst of Swift J1822.3-1606
N. Rea, G. L. Israel, P. Esposito +20
We report on the long term X-ray monitoring with Swift, RXTE, Suzaku, Chandra and XMM-Newton of the outburst of the newly discovered magnetar Swift J1822.3-1606 (SGR 1822-1606), fr…
