The Post-Burst Awakening of the Anomalous X-Ray Pulsar in Westerlund 1

TL;DR: In this article, the evolution of the pulse phase comprises an exponential component decaying with timescale of 1.4 days, which they interpret as the recovery stage following a large glitch (??/? 6? 10-5).
Journal ArticleDOI

XIPE: the X-ray Imaging Polarimetry Explorer

Paolo Soffitta, +98 more
TL;DR: The X-ray Imaging Polarimetry Explorer (XIPE) as mentioned in this paper is composed of two out of the three existing JET-X telescopes with two Gas Pixel Detectors (GPDs) filled with a He-DME mixture at their focus, and two additional GPDs filled with pressurized Ar DME facing the sun.
Journal ArticleDOI

On the spectral evolution of Cygnus X{2 along its color-color diagram

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors report on the results of a broad band (0.1{200 keV) spectral study of Cyg X{2 using two BeppoSAX observations taken in 1996 and 1997, respectively, for a total on-source time of100 ks.
Journal ArticleDOI

Do quiescent soft X-ray transients contain millisecond radio pulsars?

TL;DR: In this article, the conditions under which a detectable radio pulsar signal can be produced by the rapidly rotating neutron star in the quiescent phase of a soft x-ray transients (SXRTs) are investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI

A XMM-Newton View of the Soft Gamma-ray Repeater SGR 1806--20: Long Term Variability in the pre-Super Giant Flare Epoch

TL;DR: In this paper, the low energy X-ray emission of the Soft Gamma-ray Repeater SGR1806-20 has been studied by means of four XMM-Newton observations carried out in the last two years, the latter performed in response to a strong sequence of hard Xray bursts observed on 2004 October 5.
