Pulsed, Polarized X-ray Emission from Neutron Star Surfaces: the Effects of Vacuum Birefringence in the Magnetosphere
Hoa Dinh Thi, Matthew G. Baring, Kun Hu +4
Intense magnetic fields in the atmospheres of neutron stars render non-trivial angular dependence of intensity and polarization of soft X-ray emission originating from their surfac…
NICER Magnetar Burst Catalog
Che-Yen Chu, Chin-Ping Hu, Teruaki Enoto +13
In this paper, we present a comprehensive catalog of short bursts from magnetars based on eight years of NICER observations. A total of 1130 bursts were identified from 14 sources,…
Vacuum birefringence and the polarized X-ray emission from a radio magnetar
Rachael E. Stewart, Hoa Dinh Thi, George Younes +13
Magnetars are isolated neutron stars with exceptionally strong surface fields exceeding G. Their bright X-ray emission probes physical regimes in which quantum electrodyn…
Rapid Spectral Evolution of SGR 1935+2154 During its 2022 Outburst
Chin-Ping Hu, Zorawar Wadiasingh, Wynn C. G. Ho +9
During the 2022 outburst of SGR 1935+2154, a Fast-Radio-Burst-like event (FRB 20221014A) and X-ray activities occurred between two spin-up glitches, suggesting these glitches may c…
Timing and Spectral Evolution of the Magnetar 1E 1841-045 in Outburst
G. Younes, S. K. Lander, M. G. Baring +19
We present the timing and spectral analyses of the NICER, NuSTAR, and IXPE observations of the magnetar 1E 1841-045 covering 82 days following its August 2024 bursting activity as…
X-ray polarization of the magnetar 1E 1841-045
Rachael Stewart, George A. Younes, Alice K. Harding +15
We report on IXPE and NuSTAR observations beginning forty days after the 2024 outburst onset of magnetar 1E 1841-045, marking the first IXPE observation of a magnetar in an enhance…
GRB 180128A: A Second Magnetar Giant Flare Candidate from the Sculptor Galaxy
Aaron C. Trigg, Eric Burns, Oliver J. Roberts +14
Magnetars are slowly rotating neutron stars that possess the strongest magnetic fields () known in the cosmos. They display a range of transient high-en…
Swift Deep Galactic Plane Survey Classification of Swift J170800402551.8 as a Candidate Intermediate Polar Cataclysmic Variable
B. O'Connor, E. Gogus, J. Hare +24
Here, we present the results of our multi-wavelength campaign aimed at classifying \textit{Swift} J170800402551.8 as part of the \textit{Swift} Deep Galactic Plane Survey (DGPS)…
The 2022 high-energy outburst and radio disappearing act of the magnetar 1E 1547.0-5408
Marcus E. Lower, George Younes, Paul Scholz +19
We report the radio and high-energy properties of a new outburst from the radio-loud magnetar 1E 1547.05408. Following the detection of a short burst from the source with Swift-…
