Understanding the X-ray spectrum of anomalous X-ray pulsars and soft gamma-ray repeaters

Liu, Yuan; Guo, Yan-Jun; Tong, Hao +3 more

Hard X-rays above 10 keV are detected from several anomalous X-ray pulsars (AXPs) and soft gamma-ray repeaters (SGRs), and different models have been proposed to explain the physical origin within the frame of either a magnetar model or a fallback disk system. Using data from Suzaku and INTEGRAL, we study the soft and hard X-ray spectra of four AX…
