A NuSTAR study of the 55 ks hard X-ray pulse-phase modulation in the magnetar 4U 0142+61

Kazuo Makishima, Hiroaki Murakami, Teruaki Enoto +1

Archival NuSTAR data of the magnetar 4U0142+61, acquired in 2014 March for a total time span of 258 ks, were analyzed. This is to reconfirm the 55 ks modulation in the hard X-ray p…

Hitomi X-ray Observation of the Pulsar Wind Nebula G21.50.9

Hitomi Collaboration, Felix Aharonian, Hiroki Akamatsu +194

We present results from the Hitomi X-ray observation of a young composite-type supernova remnant (SNR) G21.50.9, whose emission is dominated by the pulsar wind nebula (PWN) cont…

Magnetar Broadband X-ray Spectra Correlated with Magnetic Fields: Suzaku Archive of SGRs and AXPs Combined with NuSTAR, Swift, and RXTE

Teruaki Enoto, Shinpei Shibata, Takao Kitaguchi +7

Studies were made of the 1-70 keV persistent spectra of fifteen magnetars as a complete sample observed with Suzaku from 2006 to 2013. Combined with early NuSTAR observations of fo…

Suzaku Studies of the Supernova Remnant CTB~109 Hosting the Magnetar 1E~2259+586

Toshio Nakano, Hiroaki Murakami, Junoko S. Hiraga +3

Ages of the magnetar 1E 2259+586 and the associated supernova remnant CTB~109 were studied. Analyzing the Suzaku data of CTB~109, its age was estimated to be 14~kyr, which is…

Discovery of a 36 ks Phase Modulation in the Hard X-ray Pulses from the Magnetar 1E 1547.05408

Kazuo Makishima, Teruaki Enoto, Hiroaki Murakami +4

The Suzaku data of the highly variable magnetar 1E 1547.05408, obtained during the 2009 January activity, were reanalyzed. The 2.07 s pulsation of the 15--40 keV emission detect…

Possible Evidence for Free Precession of a Strongly Magnetized Neutron Star in the Magnetar 4U 0142+61

Kazuo Makishima, Teruaki Enoto, Junko S. Hiraga +5

Magnetars are a special type of neutron stars, considered to have extreme dipole magnetic fields reaching ~1e+11 T. The magnetar 4U 0142+61, one of prototypes of this class, was st…
