On the soft emission mechanism in X-ray pulsars

open access: yesJournal of Theoretical and Applied Physics, 2019
We propose a mechanism responsible for the soft emission in X-ray pulsars. We discuss the origin of the soft emission for isolated X-ray pulsars as well as for soft gamma-ray repeaters and anomalous X-ray pulsars.

CENTRAL ENGINE MEMORY OF GAMMA-RAY BURSTS AND SOFT GAMMA-RAY REPEATERS [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2016
ABSTRACT Gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) are bursts of γ-rays generated from relativistic jets launched from catastrophic events such as massive star core collapse or binary compact star coalescence. Previous studies suggested that GRB emission is erratic, with no noticeable memory in the central engine.

Quiescent High‐Energy Gamma‐Ray Emission from Soft Gamma‐Ray Repeaters [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2002
We present a model for the high-energy γ-ray emission from the outer gap of soft gamma-ray repeaters (SGRs) during their quiescent states. In this model, X-rays come from the stellar surface, but the emerging X-ray spectrum will have a power-law tail because of the multiple scattering at the cyclotron resonance in the magnetosphere, as pointed out by ...

The energy spectrum of anomalous X-ray pulsars and soft gamma-ray repeaters [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomy and Astrophysics, 2010
Assuming that AXPs and SGRs accrete matter from a fallback disk, we attempt to explain both the soft and the hard X-ray emission as the result of the accretion process. We also attempt to explain their radio emission or the lack of it. We test the hypothesis that the power-law, hard X-ray spectra are produced in the accretion flow mainly by bulk-motion

The 2021 Activity of the Fast-radio-burst-emitting Galactic Magnetar SGR 1935+2154 as Observed by NASA’s Fermi Gamma-Ray Burst Monitor

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2023
The galactic, fast-radio-burst-emitting magnetar SGR 1935+2154 entered an active X-ray burst episode in 2021 September, nearly a year after emitting a fast radio burst with an X-ray counterpart.

Quasiperiodic Peak Energy Oscillations in X-Ray Bursts from SGR J1935+2154

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2023
Magnetars are young neutron stars powered by the strongest magnetic fields in the Universe (10 ^13–15 G). Their transient X-ray emission usually manifests as short (a few hundred milliseconds), bright, energetic (∼10 ^40–41 erg) X-ray bursts.
