The infrared counterpart and proper motion of magnetar SGR0501+4516
A. A. Chrimes, A. J. Levan, J. D. Lyman +19
Soft gamma repeaters (SGRs) are highly magnetised neutron stars (magnetars) notable for their gamma-ray and X-ray outbursts. In this paper, we use near-infrared (NIR) imaging of SG…
The updated spectral catalogue of INTEGRAL Gamma-Ray Bursts
G. Vianello, D. Götz, S. Mereghetti
We present a catalogue with the properties of all the bursts detected and localized by the IBIS instrument onboard the INTEGRAL satellite from November 2002 to September 2008. The…
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…
An alternative hypothesis for the outburst mechanism in Supergiant Fast X-ray Transients: the case of IGR J11215-5952
L. Sidoli, P. Romano, S. Mereghetti +4
(ABRIDGED)- The physical mechanism responsible for the short outbursts in a recently recognized class of High Mass X-ray Binaries, the Supergiant Fast X-ray Transients (SFXTs), is…
Long term spectral variability in the soft gamma ray repeater SGR 1900+14
P. Esposito, S. Mereghetti, A. Tiengo +3
We present a systematic analysis of all the BeppoSAX data of SGR 1900+14. The observations spanning five years show that the source was brighter than usual on two occasions: ~20 da…
A new symbiotic low mass X-ray binary system: 4U 1954+319
F. Mattana, D. Gotz, M. Falanga +4
4U 1954+319 was discovered 25 years ago, but only recently has a clear picture of its nature begun to emerge. We present for the first time a broad-band spectrum of the source and…
