Discovery of Extremely Embedded X-ray Sources in the R Coronae Australis Star Forming Core

Kenji Hamaguchi, Michael F. Corcoran, Rob Petre +5

With the XMM-Newton and Chandra observatories, we detected two extremely embedded X-ray sources in the R Corona Australis (R CrA) star forming core, near IRS 7. These sources, desi…

Pulsar Polar Cap Heating and Surface Thermal X-Ray Emission II. Inverse Compton Radiation Pair Fronts

Alice K. Harding, Alexander Muslimov

We investigate the production of electron-positron pairs by inverse Compton scattered (ICS) photons above a pulsar polar cap (PC) and surface heating by returning positrons. This p…

Correlations Between Spectral Properties and Spin-Down Rate in Soft Gamma-Ray Repeaters and Anomalous X-ray Pulsars

D. Marsden, N. E. White

Anomalous x-ray pulsars (AXPs) and soft gamma-ray repeaters (SGRs) are x-ray sources with unusual properties distinguishing them from both rotation-powered and most accretion-power…

The discovery of 8.9s pulsations from the variable X-ray source 2E0050.1-7247 in the small Magellanic cloud

G. L. Israel, L. Stella, L. Angelini +3

During a systematic search for periodic signals in a sample of ROSAT PSPC light curves, we discovered ~ 8.9s X-ray pulsations in 2E0050.1-7247, a variable X-ray source in the Small…
