Search for High-Energy Gamma-ray Emission from an Anomalous X-ray Pulsar, 4U 0142+61

open access: yes, 2010
Until 2004, Anomalous X-ray Pulsars (AXPs) were known as strong emitters of soft X-rays only (< 10 keV). The discovery of hard X-ray component from AXPs provided important insight about their emission properties while it posed a serious challenge to ...
