Radio-quiet and radio-loud pulsars: similar in Gamma-rays but different in X-rays [PDF]
, 2015 We present new Chandra and XMM-Newton observations of a sample of eight radio-quiet Gamma-ray pulsars detected by the Fermi Large Area Telescope. For all eight pulsars we identify the X-ray counterpart, based on the X-ray source localization and the best

Diagnosing the Particle Transport Mechanism in the Pulsar Halo via X-Ray Observations
The Astrophysical JournalPulsar halos (also termed “TeV halos”) are a new class of γ -ray sources in the Galaxy, which manifest as extended γ -ray emission around middle-aged pulsars, as discovered around the Geminga pulsar, the Monogem pulsar, and PSR J0622+3749 by the High ...

An optical counterpart to the anomalous X-ray pulsar 4U0142+61 [PDF]
Nature, 2000 The energy source of the anomalous X-ray pulsars (AXPs) is not understood, hence their designation as anomalous. Unlike binary X-ray pulsars, no companions are seen, so the energy cannot be supplied by accretion of matter from a companion star.

XMM-Newton observations of PSr B1259-63 near the 2004 periastron passage
, 2006 PSR B1259-63 is in a highly eccentric 3.4 year orbit with a Be star and crosses the Be star disc twice per orbit, just prior to and just after periastron.

Polarization of Intrabinary Shock Emission in Spider Pulsars
The Astrophysical Journal, 2023 In so-called spider pulsars, the X-ray band is dominated by intrabinary shock (IBS) synchrotron emission. While the double-peaked X-ray light curves from these shocks have been well characterized in several spider systems (both black widows and redbacks),

Variability of the High Magnetic Field X-Ray Pulsar PSR J1846–0258 Associated with the Supernova Remnant Kes 75 as Revealed by the Chandra X-Ray Observatory [PDF]
, 2008 We present results from the archival Chandra observations of the 0.3 s X-ray pulsar PSR J1846–0258 associated with the supernova remnant (SNR) Kes 75. The pulsar has the highest spin-down luminosity ( = 8.3 × 1036 ergs s−1) among all the high magnetic ...

Probing the Pulsar Wind Nebula of PSR B0355+54 [PDF]
, 2006 We present XMM-Newton and Chandra X-ray observations of the middle-aged radio pulsar PSR B0355+54. Our X-ray observations reveal emission not only from the pulsar itself, but also from a compact diffuse component extending ~50'' in the opposite direction

The Post-Burst Awakening of the Anomalous X-Ray Pulsar in Westerlund 1 [PDF]
, 2007 On 2006 September 21, an intense (~1039 erg s-1) and short (20 ms) burst was detected by Swift BAT at a position consistent with that of the candidate anomalous X-ray pulsar (AXP) CXOU J164710.2-455216, discovered by Chandra in 2005.
