VLT/NACO observations of the High-Magnetic field radio pulsar PSR J1119-6127

, 2007
Recent radio observations have unveiled the existence of a number of radio pulsars with spin-down derived magnetic fields in the magnetar range. However, their observational properties appears to be more similar to classical radio pulsars than to ...

Simulations of light curves and spectra for superluminous Type Ic supernovae powered by magnetars [PDF]

Astronomy & Astrophysics, 2018
Numerous superluminous supernovae (SLSNe) of Type Ic have been discovered and monitored in the last decade. The favored mechanism at their origin is a sustained power injection from a magnetar.

Magnetars in Binaries as the Engine of Actively Repeating Fast Radio Bursts

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
The association between FRB 20200428D and the Galactic magnetar SGR J1935+2154 makes magnetars the leading engine of cosmological fast radio bursts (FRBs).

X-ray Data Analysis to Search for Magnetar Candidates in the Galactic Plane

Journal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2018
We report on our Galactic plane searches for magnetars in the archival Chandra X-ray Observatory (CXO) data. We summarize the properties of known magnetars and use them to establish a procedure for magnetar searches.

Magnetic Domains in Magnetar Matter as an Engine for Soft Gamma-ray Repeaters and Anomalous X-ray Pulsars

, 2010
Magnetars have been suggested as the most promising site for the origin of observed soft gamma-ray repeaters (SGRs) and anomalous X-ray pulsars (AXPs). In this work we investigate the possibility that SGRs and AXPs might be observational evidence for a ...

Magnetars: Properties, Origin and Evolution [PDF]

Space Science Reviews, 2015
Magnetars are neutron stars in which a strong magnetic field is the main energy source. About two dozens of magnetars, plus several candidates, are currently known in our Galaxy and in the Magellanic Clouds.

Supernova remnants with magnetars: clues to magnetar formation

, 2007
I discuss the lack of observational evidence that magnetars are formed as rapidly rotating neutron stars. Supernova remnants containing magnetars do not show the excess of kinetic energy expected for such a formation scenario, nor is there any evidence ...

The Galactic Population of Magnetars: A Simulation-based Inference Study

The Astrophysical Journal
Population synthesis modeling of the observed dynamical and physical properties of a population is a highly effective method for constraining the underlying birth parameters and evolutionary tracks.

The high energy X-ray probe (HEX-P): magnetars and other isolated neutron stars

Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences
The hard X-ray emission from magnetars and other isolated neutron stars remains under-explored. An instrument with higher sensitivity to hard X-rays is critical to understanding the physics of neutron star magnetospheres and also the relationship between
