Formation Channels of Magnetars
The Astrophysical JournalThe formation channels of magnetars remain an open question. Although core-collapse supernovae of isolated massive stars are important, binary interactions—such as tidal interaction, common envelope evolution, and stellar mergers—may also play a ...

Gravitational-wave Radiation from the Magnetar-driven Supernovae
The Astrophysical JournalRapidly spinning magnetars are potential candidates for the energy source of supernovae (SNe) and gamma-ray bursts and the most promising sources for continuous gravitational waves (GWs) detected by ground-based GW detectors.

Frontiers in Astronomy and Space SciencesWe explain the braking index n=2.19±0.03 of PSR J1846−0258 by incorporating the time evolution of its magnetic inclination angle and dipolar magnetic field. Based on observational timing data and the age of the associated supernova remnant (tSNR≈1.77kyr),

Axion production from Landau quantization in the strong magnetic field of magnetars
Physics Letters B, 2018 We utilize an exact quantum calculation to explore axion emission from electrons and protons in the presence of the strong magnetic field of magnetars. The axion is emitted via transitions between the Landau levels generated by the strong magnetic field.

Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2008 AbstractThe largest magnetic field encountered in the observable Universe can be found in neutron stars, in particular in radio pulsars and magnetars. While recent discoveries have slowly started to blur the distinction between these two classes of highly magnetized neutron stars, it is possible that both types of sources are linked via an evolutionary

The Self-organized Criticality Behaviors of Pulses in Magnetar Bursts
The Astrophysical Journal Supplement SeriesThe overall temporal and spectral characteristics (e.g., duration, fluence, peak flux, peak count rate, and total counts) of X-ray bursts (XRBs) originating from magnetars have been extensively studied to confirm their self-organized criticality (SOC ...

INTEGRAL IBIS Catalog of Magnetar Bursts
The Astrophysical JournalOne of the distinctive properties of magnetars, young neutron stars powered mainly by magnetic energy, is the emission of short (≲1 s) bursts of hard X-rays. Such bursts have been observed in nearly all the known magnetars, although at different and time-
