Einstein Probe discovery of the magnetar EP J223759.5+531421

N. Rea, F. Coti Zelati, A. Borghese +44

We report the discovery and early outburst evolution of the new Galactic magnetar EP J223759.5+531421, detected by the Einstein Probe Wide-field X-ray Telescope on 2026 June 28. Fo…

IXPE observation of the new magnetar source EP J223759.5+531421

Roberto Taverna, Lorenzo Marra, Roberto Turolla +9

We report on the detection of polarized X-ray emission from the new Galactic magnetar EP J223759.5+531421, discovered by the Einstein Probe Wide-field X-ray Telescope on 2026 June…

A FAST search for radio pulsations during the dormant state of the AMSPs IGR J00291+5934 and MAXI J1957+032

A. Marino, E. Parent, F. Coti Zelati +15

Accreting millisecond pulsars (AMSPs) and transitional millisecond pulsars (tMSPs) are neutron star low-mass X-ray binaries which can evolve into "recycled" radio millisecond pulsa…

The NuSTAR view of Ultra-Compact X-ray Binaries

A. Borghese, M. Armas Padilla, T. Muñoz-Darias

Ultra-compact X-ray binaries (UCXBs) are a subclass of low-mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs) characterised by tight orbits and hydrogen-poor donor stars. We present a spectral and timing…

The long quest for vacuum birefringence in magnetars: 1E 1547.0-5408 and the elusive smoking gun

Roberto Taverna, Roberto Turolla, Lorenzo Marra +7

Magnetars are now known to be among the most strongly polarized celestial sources in X-rays. Here we report on the observation of the magnetar 1E 1547.0-5408 per…

Flashing fast: characterising the 2025 outburst of MAXI J1957+032

A. Sanna, G. Illiano, M. C. Baglio +13

MAXI J1957+032 is an accreting millisecond X-ray pulsar that shows brief, recurrent outbursts in an ultra-compact ~1 h orbit. We characterise the 2025 outburst using X-ray timing a…
