Intensity-hardness correlation and deep infrared observation of the anomalous X-ray pulsar 1RXS J170849-400910
N. Rea, G. L. Israel, T. Oosterbroek +6
We report here on X-ray and IR observations of the Anomalous X-ray Pulsar 1RXS J170849-400910. First, we report on new XMM-Newton, Swift-XRT and Chandra observations of this AXP, w…
Our distorted view of magnetars: application of the Resonant Cyclotron Scattering model
N. Rea, S. Zane, M. Lyutikov +1
The X-ray spectra of the magnetar candidates are customarily fitted with an empirical, two component model: an absorbed blackbody and a power-law. However, the physical interpretat…
Studies of Neutron Stars at Optical/IR Wavelengths
R. P. Mignani, S. Bagnulo, A. De Luca +7
In the last years, optical studies of Isolated Neutron Stars (INSs) have expanded from the more classical rotation-powered ones to other categories, like the Anomalous X-ray Pulsar…
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…
Evidence for precession of the isolated neutron star RX J0720.4-3125
F. Haberl, R. Turolla, C. P. De Vries +4
The XMM-Newton spectra of the isolated neutron star RX J0720.4-3125 obtained over 4.5 years can be described by sinusoidal variations in the inferred blackbody temperature, the siz…
