The first multi-wavelength campaign of AXP 4U 0142+61 from radio to hard X-rays
P. R. den Hartog, L. Kuiper, W. Hermsen +5
For the first time a quasi-simultaneous multi-wavelength campaign has been performed on an Anomalous X-ray Pulsar from the radio to the hard X-ray band. 4U 0142+61 was an INTEGRAL…
Our distorted view of magnetars: application of the Resonant Cyclotron Scattering model
N. Rea, S. Zane, M. Lyutikov +1
The X-ray spectra of the magnetar candidates are customarily fitted with an empirical, two component model: an absorbed blackbody and a power-law. However, the physical interpretat…
Chandra Smells a RRAT: X-ray Detection of a Rotating Radio Transient
B. M. Gaensler, M. McLaughlin, S. Reynolds +10
"Rotating RAdio Transients" (RRATs) are a newly discovered astronomical phenomenon, characterised by occasional brief radio bursts, with average intervals between bursts ranging fr…
Studies of Neutron Stars at Optical/IR Wavelengths
R. P. Mignani, S. Bagnulo, A. De Luca +7
In the last years, optical studies of Isolated Neutron Stars (INSs) have expanded from the more classical rotation-powered ones to other categories, like the Anomalous X-ray Pulsar…
Search for radio pulsations in four Anomalous X-ray Pulsars and discovery of two new pulsars
M. Burgay, N. Rea, G. L. Israel +5
We report on observations of four southern Anomalous X-ray Pulsars, (1RXS J170849.0-400910, 1E 1048.1-5937, 1E 1841-045 and AX J1845-0258), obtained at 1.4 GHz using the Parkes rad…
Magnetars' Giant Flares: the case of SGR 1806-20
Nanda Rea
We first review on the peculiar characteristics of the bursting and flaring activity of the Soft Gamma-ray Repeaters and Anomalous X-ray Pulsars. We then report on the properties o…
