X-ray Polarization from Magnetar Sources

open access: yesGalaxies
The launch of the IXPE telescope in late 2021 finally made polarization measurements in the 2–8keV band a reality, more than 40 years after the pioneering observations of the OSO-8 satellite.

Role of Time‐Varying Magnetic Field on QGP Equation of State

open access: yesAdvances in High Energy Physics, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
The phase diagram of quantum chromodynamics (QCD) and its associated thermodynamic properties of quark‐gluon plasma (QGP) are studied in the presence of time‐dependent magnetic field. The study plays a pivotal role in the field of cosmology, astrophysics, and heavy‐ion collisions. In order to explore the structure of quark‐gluon plasma to deal with the

Ambipolar Heating of Magnetars

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
Magnetars, neutron stars thought to be with ultrastrong magnetic fields of 10 ^14–15 G, are observed to be much hotter than ordinary pulsars with ∼10 ^12 G, and additional heating sources are required.

Search for high-energy neutrinos from magnetars with IceCube

open access: yes, 2022
Magnetars are neutron stars with very strong magnetic fields on the order of 1013 to 1015 G. Young magnetars (< 104 years) with oppositely-oriented magnetic fields and spin moments may emit high-energy (HE) neutrinos from their polar caps as they may be ...

Pulsed γ-ray emission from magnetar 1E 2259+586 [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Astronomy and Space Sciences, 2013
Anomalous X-ray pulsars (AXPs) are thought to be magnetars which are young isolated neutron stars with extremely strong magnetic fields of >1014 Gauss.

Magnetars: general properties and recent developments

open access: yes, 2011
Magnetars, which form a growing subgroup of neutron stars, possess the strongest magnetic field environments in the universe. The last few years has been very fruitful for magnetars: three new sources were discovered and one source was correctly ...

Magnetars: the physics behind observations. A review [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Magnetars are the strongest magnets in the present universe and the combination of extreme magnetic field, gravity and density makes them unique laboratories to probe current physical theories (from quantum electrodynamics to general relativity) in the ...

Corona of Magnetars

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2007
We develop a theoretical model that explains the formation of hot coronae around strongly magnetized neutron stars -- magnetars. The starquakes of a magnetar shear its external magnetic field, which becomes non-potential and is threaded by an electric current. Once twisted, the magnetosphere cannot untwist immediately because of its self-induction. The

The Magnetar Connection

open access: yesProceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2020
AbstractWe investigate the combined evolution of the dipolar surface magnetic field (Bs) and the spin-period (Ps) of known Magnetars and high magnetic field ( $${{\rm{B}}_s} \mathbin{\lower.3ex\hbox{$\buildrel>\over {\smash{\scriptstyle\sim}\vphantom{_x}}$}} {10^{13}}{\rm{G}}$$ ) radio pulsars.

Millisecond Magnetars

open access: yes, 2021
Two classes of X-ray/$γ$-ray sources, the Soft Gamma Repeaters and the Anomalous X-ray Pulsars have been identified with isolated, slowly spinning magnetars, neutron stars whose emission draws energy from their extremely strong magnetic field ($\sim 10^{15}-10^{16}$ G).
