Physics of Strong Magnetism with eXTP

Mingyu Ge, Long Ji, Roberto Taverna +47

In this paper we present the science potential of the enhanced X-ray Timing and Polarimetry (eXTP) mission, in its new configuration, for studies of strongly magnetized compact obj…

Quakes of Compact Stars

Ruipeng Lu, Han Yue, Xiaoyu Lai +3

Glitches are commonly observed for pulsars, which are explained by various mechanisms. One hypothesis attributes the glitch effect to the instantaneous moment of inertia change of…

Investigating magnetically-induced distortions of neutron stars through gamma-ray burst X-ray plateaus

Tingting Lin, Shuang Du, Weihua Wang +2

Magnetic field may distort neutron stars (NSs), but its effect has not been robustly tested through gravitational-wave observation yet due to the absence of a fast rotating Galacti…

X-ray polarimetry of the Crab nebula with PolarLight: polarization recovery after the glitch and a secular position angle variation

Xiangyun Long, Hua Feng, Hong Li +24

We report follow-up observations of the Crab nebula with the PolarLight X-ray polarimeter, which revealed a possible variation in polarization associated with a pulsar glitch in 20…

Re-detection and a Possible Time Variation of Soft X-ray Polarisation from the Crab

Hua Feng, Hong Li, Xiangyun Long +24

The Crab nebula is so far the only celestial object with a statistically significant detection in soft x-ray polarimetry, a window that has not been explored in astronomy since the…

What can we learn from FRB 200428?

Shuang Du, Weihua Wang

The two radio pulses (TRPs) from SGR 1935+2154 detected by \cite{BKRMHB} and \cite{2020arXiv200510324T} have similar features to that of cosmological fast radio bursts (FRBs). Many…

The geometry and environment of repeating FRBs

Shuang Du, Weihua Wang, Xuhao Wu +1

We propose a geometrical explanation for periodically and nonperiodically repeating fast radio bursts (FRBs) under neutron star (NS)-companion systems. We suggest a constant critic…

Delayed spin-up and persistent shift phenomena of Crab pulsar glitches: two sides of the same coin?

Weihua Wang, Xiaoping Zheng

Pulsar glitches are sudden increase in their spin frequency, in most cases followed by the long timescale recovery process. As of this writing, about 546 glitches have been reporte…

Rotational evolution of magnetars in the presence of a fallback disk

H. Tong, W. Wang, X. W. Liu +1

Magnetars may have strong surface dipole field. Observationally, two magnetars may have passive fallback disks. In the presence of a fallback disk, the rotational evolution of magn…
