A closer look at the X-ray transient XTE J1908+094: identification of two new near-infrared candidate counterparts
Sylvain Chaty, Roberto P. Mignani, Gianluca Israel
We had reported in Chaty, Mignani, Israel (2002) on the near-infrared (NIR) identification of a possible counterpart to the black hole candidate XTE J1908+094 obtained with the ESO…
A deep XMM-Newton serendipitous survey of a middle-latitude area
G. Novara, N. La Palombara, N. Carangelo +4
The radio quiet neutron star 1E1207.4-5209 has been the target of a 260 ks XMM-Newton observation, which yielded, as a by product, an harvest of about 200 serendipitous X-ray sourc…
Discovery and Monitoring of the likely IR Counterpart of SGR 1806-20 during the 2004 gamma-ray burst-active state
GianLuca Israel, Stefano Covino, Roberto Mignani +9
The sky region including the Chandra position of SGR 1806-20 was monitored in the IR band during 2004, following its increased high energy bursting activity. Observations were perf…
A Multi-wavelength study of the Pulsar PSR B1929+10 and its X-ray trail
Werner Becker, Michael Kramer, Axel Jessner +8
We report on the emission properties of PSR B1929+10 and its putative X-ray trail from a multi-wavelength study performed with XMM-Newton, the ESO NTT, the HST, the Effelsberg 100m…
On the local birth place of Geminga
L. J. Pellizza, R. P. Mignani, I. A. Grenier +1
Using estimates of the distance and proper motion of Geminga and the constraints on its radial velocity posed by the shape of its bow shock, we investigate its birth place by traci…
Optical Studies of Isolated Neutron Stars and Their Environments
Roberto P. Mignani
The results of optical studies of Isolated Neutron Stars (INSs), their Pulsar-Wind Nebulae (PWNe) and Pulsar Bow Shocks are reviewed and discussed.
