X-Ray Pulsars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
X-ray pulsars shine thanks to the conversion of the gravitational energy of accreted material to X-ray radiation. The accretion rate is modulated by geometrical and hydrodynamical effects in the stellar wind of the pulsar companions and/or by instabilities in accretion discs.

X-RAY EVOLUTION OF PULSAR WIND NEBULAE [PDF]

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal, 2010
During the search for counterparts of very-high-energy gamma-ray sources, we serendipitously discovered large, extended, low surface brightness emission from PWNe around pulsars with the ages up to ~100 kyrs, a discovery made possible by the low and stable background of the Suzaku X-ray satellite.

X-ray Flares from Postmerger Millisecond Pulsars [PDF]

open access: yesScience, 2006
Recent observations support the suggestion that short-duration gamma-ray bursts are produced by compact star mergers. The x-ray flares discovered in two short gamma-ray bursts last much longer than the previously proposed postmerger energy-release time scales. Here, we show that they can be produced by differentially rotating, millisecond pulsars after

X-ray polarimetry of X-ray pulsar X Persei: another orthogonal rotator?

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2023
ABSTRACT X Persei is a persistent low-luminosity X-ray pulsar of period of ≈ 835 s in a Be binary system. The field strength at the neutron star surface is not known precisely, but indirect signs indicate a magnetic field above 1013 G, which makes the object one of the most magnetized known X-ray pulsars.

A Radio Pulsar/X-ray Binary Link [PDF]

open access: yesScience, 2009
From X-ray Binary to Pulsar Pulsars with millisecond rotational periods are thought to originate from neutron stars in low-mass x-ray binaries that had their spin frequencies increased by long-lasting mass transfer from their companion stars. Using data from a radio pulsar survey, Archibald

Unpulsed X-rays from Pulsars [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1981
The radio emission from pulsars is energetically insignificant, yet its distinctive character led to their discovery and subsequent identification with rotating magnetized neutron stars. In the intervening thirteen years, a wealth of radio data have been accumulated from which we have learned something of the magnetospheric properties, stellar ...

Pulsars and X-Ray Sources [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1973
We summarize some theoretical aspects of the X-ray emission from genuine pulsars and their relation to the more general problems of X-ray sources.
