Hard X-ray quiescent emission in magnetars via resonant Compton upscattering
Baring, M.G.; Wadiasingh, Z.; Gonthier, P.L.; Harding, A.K. (IOP Publishing, 2017)Non-thermal quiescent X-ray emission extending between 10 keV and around 150 keV has been seen in about 10 magnetars by RXTE, INTEGRAL, Suzaku, NuSTAR and Fermi- GBM. For inner magnetospheric models of such hard X-ray ... -
Modelling the polarisation signatures detected from the first white dwarf pulsar AR Sco.
Du Plessis, L.; Wadiasingh, Z.; Venter, C.; Chandra, S.; Harding, A.K. (Sissa Medialab, 2018)Marsh et al. (2016) detected radio and optical pulsations from the binary system AR Scorpii (AR Sco). This system, with an orbital period of 3.55 h, is composed of a cool, low-mass star and a white dwarf with a spin period ...
