Emission From Rotation-Powered Pulsars and Magnetars | | Alice K. Harding
; | | Date: |
5 Oct 2005 | | Subject: | astro-ph | | Abstract: | I will review the latest developments in understanding the high-energy emission of rotation-powered pulsars and magnetically-powered Anomalous X-ray Pulsars (AXPs) and Soft Gamma-Ray Repeaters (SGRs). These fields have been extremely active in the last few years, both observationally and theoretically, driven partly by new X-ray data from Chandra, XMM-Newton and RXTE. At the same time, the Parkes Multibeam Survey has discovered over 700 new radio pulsars, some of them young and coincident with EGRET sources, and others having magnetar-strength magnetic fields. These new observations are raising important questions about neutron star birth and evolution, as well as the properties of their high-energy emission. | | Source: | arXiv, astro-ph/0510134 | | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites | |
