The birthplace and age of the isolated neutron star RX J1856.5-3754
R. P. Mignani, D. Vande Putte, M. Cropper +6
X-ray observations unveiled various types of radio-silent Isolated Neutron Stars (INSs), phenomenologically very diverse, e.g. the Myr old X-ray Dim INS (XDINSs) and the kyr old ma…
A new low-B magnetar: Swift J1822.3-1606
A. Camero-Arranz, N. Rea, G. L. Israel +16
We report on the long term X-ray monitoring with Swift, RXTE, Suzaku, Chandra, and XMM-Newton of the outburst of the newly discovered magnetar Swift J1822.3-1606 (SGR 182-1606), fr…
New VLT observations of the Fermi pulsar PSR J1048-5832
M. Razzano, R. P. Mignani, M. Marelli +1
PSR J1048-5832 is a Vela-like (P=123.6 ms; tau~20.3 kyr) gamma-ray pulsar detected by Fermi, at a distance of ~2.7 kpc and with a rotational energy loss rate dot{E}_{SD} ~2 x 10^{3…
The identification of the optical companion to the binary millisecond pulsar J0610-2100 in the Galactic field
C. Pallanca, R. P. Mignani, E. Dalessandro +5
We have used deep V and R images acquired at the ESO Very Large Telescope to identify the optical companion to the binary pulsar PSR J0610-2100, one of the black-widow millisecond…
A new low magnetic field magnetar: the 2011 outburst of Swift J1822.3-1606
N. Rea, G. L. Israel, P. Esposito +20
We report on the long term X-ray monitoring with Swift, RXTE, Suzaku, Chandra and XMM-Newton of the outburst of the newly discovered magnetar Swift J1822.3-1606 (SGR 1822-1606), fr…
