SGR 1806-20 about two years after the giant flare: Suzaku, XMM-Newton and INTEGRAL observations
P. Esposito, S. Mereghetti, A. Tiengo +9
In December 2004, the soft gamma-ray repeater SGR 1806-20 emitted the most powerful giant flare ever observed. This probably involved a large-scale rearrangement of the magnetosphe…
The afterglow onset for GRB060418 and GRB060607A
S. Covino, S. D. Vergani, D. Malesani +32
Gamma-ray burst are thought to be produced by highly relativistic outflows. Although upper and lower limits for the outflow initial Lorentz factor are available, observationa…
X-Ray Eclipse Time Delays in 4U2129+47
E. Bozzo, M. Falanga, A. Papitto +8
4U 2129+47 was discovered in the early 80's and classified as an accretion disk corona source due to its broad and partial X-ray eclipses. The 5.24 hr binary orbital period was inf…
The Post-Burst Awakening of the Anomalous X-ray Pulsar in Westerlund 1
G. L. Israel, S. Campana, S. Dall'Osso +4
On September 21, 2006, an intense (~10^39 erg/s) and short (20 ms) burst was detected by Swift BAT at a position consistent with that of the candidate Anomalous X-ray Pulsar, CXOU…
Spectral modelling of the high energy emission of the magnetar 4U 0142+614
Nanda Rea, Roberto Turolla, Silvia Zane +4
We present an empirical spectral modelling of the high energy emission of the anomalous X-ray pulsar 4U 0142+614, based on simultaneous Swift and INTEGRAL observations from X to ga…
Newborn Magnetars as sources of Gravitational Radiation: constraints from High Energy observations of Magnetar Candidates
Simone Dall'Osso, Luigi Stella
Soft Gamma Repeaters and the Anomalous X-ray Pulsars are believed to contain slowly spinning "magnetars". The enormous energy liberated in the 2004 Dece 27 giant flare from SGR 180…
