The `Periodic Nulls' of Radio Pulsar J1819+1305

Joanna M. Rankin, Geoffrey A. E. Wright

We present a single-pulse study of the four-component pulsar J1819+1305, whose ``null'' pulses bunch at periodic intervals of around 57 times the rotation period. The emission burs…

Activity from Magnetar Candidate 4U 0142+61: Bursts and Emission Lines

Fotis P. Gavriil, Rim. Dib, Victoria M. Kaspi

After 6 years of quiescence, Anomalous X-ray Pulsar (AXP) 4U 0142+61 entered an active phase in 2006 March that lasted several months. During the active phase, several bursts were…

Central Compact Objects in Supernova Remnants

Andrea De Luca

Central Compact Objects (CCOs) are a handful of soft X-ray sources located close to the centers of Supernova Remnants and supposed to be young, radio-quiet Isolated Neutron Stars (…

Transient Phenomena in Anomalous X-ray Pulsars

GianLuca Israel, Federico Bernardini, Marta Burgay +4

In 2003 a previously unpulsed Einstein and ROSAT source cataloged as soft and dim (Lx of few 10^33 ergs) thermal emitting object, namely XTE J1810-197, was identified as the first…

Origin of neutron star magnetic fields

H. C. Spruit

Possible origins of the magnetic fields of neutron stars include inheritance from the main sequence progenitor and dynamo action at some stage of evolution of progenitor. Inheritan…

Filamentation Instability of Interacting Current Sheets in Striped Relativistic Winds: The Origin of Low Sigma?

Jonathan Arons

I outline a mechanism, akin to Weibel instabilities of interpenetrating beams, in which the neighboring current sheets in a striped wind from an oblique rotator interact through a…
