An Unusual Burst from Soft Gamma Repeater SGR 1900+14: Comparisons with Giant Flares and Implications for the Magnetar Model
Alaa I. Ibrahim, Tod E. Strohmayer, Peter M. Woods +6
The Soft Gamma Repeater SGR 1900+14 entered a remarkable phase of activity during the summer of 1998. This activity peaked on August 27, 1998 when a giant periodic gamma-ray flare…
Detailed Analysis of the Pulsations During and After Bursts from the Bursting Pulsar (GRO J1744-28)
Peter M. Woods, Chryssa Kouveliotou, Jan van Paradijs +5
The hard X-ray bursts observed during both major outbursts of the Bursting Pulsar (GRO J1744-28) show pulsations near the neutron star spin frequency with an enhanced amplitude rel…
Timing Noise in SGR 1806-20
Peter M. Woods, Chryssa Kouveliotou, Mark H. Finger +9
We have phase connected a sequence of RXTE PCA observations of SGR 1806-20 covering 178 days. We find a simple secular spin-down model does not adequately fit the data. The period…
