Quiescent state and outburst evolution of SGR 0501+4516

A. Camero, A. Papitto, N. Rea +9

We report on the quiescent state of the Soft Gamma Repeater SGR 0501+4516 observed by XMM-Newton on 2009 August 30. The source exhibits an absorbed flux ~75 times lower than that m…

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…
