Magnetar Outburst Models with Cooling Simulations

D. De Grandis, N. Rea, K. Kovlakas +6

Magnetar outbursts are among the most noteworthy manifestations of magnetism in neutron stars. They are episodes in which the X-ray luminosity of a strongly magnetised neutron star…

IXPE detection of highly polarized X-rays from the magnetar 1E 1841-045

Michela Rigoselli, Roberto Taverna, Sandro Mereghetti +12

The Imaging X-ray Polarimetry Explorer (IXPE) observed for the first time highly polarized X-ray emission from the magnetar 1E 1841-045, targeted after a burst-active phase in Augu…

Two decades of X-ray observations of the isolated neutron star RX J1856.5-3754: detection of thermal and non-thermal hard X-rays and refined spin-down measurement

Davide De Grandis, Michela Rigoselli, Sandro Mereghetti +6

The soft X-ray pulsar RX J1856.5-3754 is the brightest member of a small class of thermally-emitting, radio-silent, isolated neutron stars. Its X-ray spectrum is almost indistingui…

X-ray Emission from Isolated Neutron Stars revisited: 3D magnetothermal simulations

Davide De Grandis, Roberto Taverna, Roberto Turolla +4

X-ray emission from the surface of isolated neutron stars (NSs) has been now observed in a variety of sources. The ubiquitous presence of pulsations clearly indicates that thermal…

3D modelling of magneto-thermal evolution of neutron stars: method and test cases

Davide De Grandis, Roberto Turolla, Toby S. Wood +3

Neutron stars harbour extremely strong magnetic fields within their solid outer crust. The topology of this field strongly influences the surface temperature distribution, and henc…
