17 Yr of Magnetar Bursts Observed with the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor

Matt Godwin, Özge Keskin, Mustafa Demirer +17

The Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) has been in operation for over 17 years, during which it has observed more than a thousand bursts from soft gamma repeaters (SGRs), also kno…

Resolving the 2024 Outburst of Magnetar 1E 1841-045 from its host Supernova Remnant with EP-FXT

Yu-Cong Fu, Lin Lin, Yu-Jia Zheng +11

The magnetar 1E 1841-045 exhibited a new active episode starting on August 20, 2024, marked by X-ray bursts and enhanced persistent emission. Using data from the Einstein Probe (EP…

Magnetar counterparts, kinematics and birth sites with HST and JWST

A. A. Chrimes, J. D. Lyman, A. J. Levan +7

Magnetars are highly magnetised, isolated neutron stars with uncertain formation channels. They comprise a potentially significant fraction of the young neutron star population in…

NICER Magnetar Burst Catalog

Che-Yen Chu, Chin-Ping Hu, Teruaki Enoto +13

In this paper, we present a comprehensive catalog of short bursts from magnetars based on eight years of NICER observations. A total of 1130 bursts were identified from 14 sources,…

The infrared counterpart and proper motion of magnetar SGR0501+4516

A. A. Chrimes, A. J. Levan, J. D. Lyman +19

Soft gamma repeaters (SGRs) are highly magnetised neutron stars (magnetars) notable for their gamma-ray and X-ray outbursts. In this paper, we use near-infrared (NIR) imaging of SG…
