Spin-down rate and inferred dipole magnetic field of the soft gamma-ray repeater SGR 1627-41
P. Esposito, M. Burgay, A. Possenti +11
Using Chandra data taken on 2008 June, we detected pulsations at 2.59439(4) s in the soft gamma-ray repeater SGR 1627-41. This is the second measurement of the source spin period a…
The emerging population of pulsar wind nebulae in hard X-rays
Fabio Mattana, Diego Götz, Régis Terrier +2
The hard X-ray synchrotron emission from pulsar wind nebulae (PWNe) probes energetic particles, closely related to the pulsar injection power at the present time. INTEGRAL has disc…
Discovery of X-ray emission from the young radio pulsar PSR J1357-6429
P. Esposito, A. Tiengo, A. De Luca +1
We present the first X-ray detection of the very young pulsar PSR J1357-6429 (characteristic age of 7.3 kyr) using data from the XMM-Newton and Chandra satellites. We find that the…
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…
DEMON: a Proposal for a Satellite-Borne Experiment to study Dark Matter and Dark Energy
Alicia Berciano Alba, Pedro Borges da Silva, Hans Eichelberger +12
We outline a novel satellite mission concept, DEMON, aimed at advancing our comprehension of both dark matter and dark energy, taking full advantage of two complementary methods: w…
On the complex X-ray structure tracing the motion of Geminga
A. De Luca, P. A. Caraveo, F. Mattana +2
A deep (100 ks) XMM-Newton observation of Geminga has shown two faint tails of diffuse X-ray emission, extending for ~2' behind the pulsar, well aligned with the proper motion (PM)…
