Chandra Observations of the High-Magnetic-Field Radio Pulsar J1718-3718
W. W. Zhu, V. M. Kaspi, M. A. McLaughlin +5
High-magnetic-field pulsars represent an important class of objects for studying the relationship between magnetars and radio pulsars. Here we report on four Chandra observations o…
Magnetar-like Emission from the Young Pulsar in Kes 75
F. P. Gavriil, M. E. Gonzalez, E. V. Gotthelf +3
We report detection of magnetar-like X-ray bursts from the young pulsar PSR J1846-0258, at the center of the supernova remnant Kes 75. This pulsar, long thought to be rotation-powe…
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…
Long term spectral variability in the Soft Gamma-ray Repeater SGR 1900+14
A. Tiengo, P. Esposito, S. Mereghetti +8
We present a systematic analysis of all the BeppoSAX data of SGR1900+14. The observations spanning five years show that the source was brighter than usual on two occasions: ~20 day…
An expanding radio nebula produced by a giant flare from the magnetar SGR 1806-20
B. M. Gaensler, C. Kouveliotou, J. D. Gelfand +16
Soft gamma repeaters (SGRs) are "magnetars", a small class of slowly spinning neutron stars with extreme surface magnetic fields, ~10^15 gauss. On 2004 December 27, a giant flare w…
The 2001 April Burst Activation of SGR 1900+14: X-ray afterglow emission
M. Feroci, S. Mereghetti, P. Woods +8
After nearly two years of quiescence, the soft gamma-ray repeater SGR 1900+14 again became burst-active on April 18 2001, when it emitted a large flare, preceded by few weak and so…
