Geminga: a tale of two tails, and much more
P. A. Caraveo, G. F. Bignami, A. De Luca +5
We report on the deep (100 ksec) XMM-Newton/EPIC observation of the field of the Geminga pulsar. The unprecedented throughput of the instrument allowed to detect two elongated para…
The XMM-Newton view of the radio-quiet neutron star 1E 1207.4-5209
A. De Luca, S. Mereghetti, P. A. Caraveo +3
We have observed the radio-quiet X-ray pulsar 1E 1207.4-5209 with the high throughput EPIC cameras onboard XMM-Newton. The spectrum of this peculiar source is characterized by two…
The 2-10 keV emission properties of PSR B1937+21
L. Nicastro, G. Cusumano, L. Kuiper +3
We present the results of a BeppoSAX observation of the fastest pulsar known: PSR B1937+21. The ~ 200 ks observation (78.5 (34) ks MECS (LECS) exposure times) allowed us to investi…
The Milky Way - Pulsars and Isolated Neutron Stars
W. Becker, G. G. Pavlov
CONTENTS The Milky Way -- Pulsars and Isolated Neutron Stars / Introduction: Historical Overview / Physics and Astrophysics of Isolated Neutron Stars / Rotation-powered Pulsars: Th…
X-ray Observations of Neutron Stars and Pulsars: First Results from XMM-Newton
W. Becker, B. Aschenbach
The X-ray Multi-Mirror Mission XMM-Newton is ESA's largest observatory so far; it is dedicated to explore the Universe in the 0.2 - 15 keV X-ray band of the electromagnetic spectru…
Timing with the EPIC pn Camera of XMM-Newton
Markus Kuster, Eckhard Kendziorra, Sara Benlloch +4
The EPIC pn CCD camera on board of XMM-Newton is designed to perform high throughput imaging and spectroscopy as well as high resolution timing observations in the energy range of…
