Deep eROSITA observations of the magnificent seven isolated neutron stars

Schwope, Axel; Mancini Pires, Adriana; Kurpas, Jan

We report the initial results of deep eROSITA monitoring of the magnificent seven isolated neutron stars (INSs). Thanks to a combination of high count statistics and good energy resolution, the eROSITA datasets unveil the increasingly complex energy distribution of these presumably simple thermal emitters. For three targets, we report the detectio…

The new magnetar SGR J1830-0645 in outburst

Coti Zelati, Francesco

The magnetar SGR J1830-0645 was discovered in outburst in October 2020. We studied its X-ray properties during the first month of the outburst using XMM-Newton, NuSTAR and Swift observations. The shape and amplitude of the pulse profile varied significantly with energy. The broadband spectrum was well described using two absorbed blackbody compone…
