Pulsar Near the Supernova Remnant RCW 103

Received ; accepted – 2 – ABSTRACT We report the detection of the radio pulsar counterpart to the 69 ms X-ray pulsar discovered near the supernova remnant RCW 103 (G332.4−0.4). Our detection confirms that the pulsations arise from a rotation-powered neutron star, which we name PSR J1617−5055. The observed barycentric period derivative confirms that the pulsar has a characteristic age of only 8 ...

RCW 103 – Revisiting a cooling neutron star

Recent observations of the compact source embedded within the supernova remnant RCW 103 rekindle interest in the origin of this object’s emission. We contrast several models in which neutron-star cooling powers RCW 103. Specifically, either the presence of an accreted envelope or a sufficiently intense magnetic field can account for the X-ray emission from this object. Subject headings: stars: ...

Ejector and propeller spin - down : How might a superluminous supernova millisecond magnetar become the 6 . 67 hr pulsar in RCW 103

The X-ray source 1E 161348−5055 in the supernova remnant RCW 103 recently exhibited X-ray activity typical of magnetars, i.e. neutron stars with magnetic fields & 1014 − 1015 G. However, 1E 161348−5055 has an observed period of 6.67 hr, in contrast to magnetars which have a spin period of seconds. Here we describe a simple model which can explain the spin evolution of 1E 161348−5055, as well as...

Flaring from the supermassive black hole in Mrk 335 studied with Swift and NuSTAR

Monitoring of the narrow line Seyfert 1 galaxy Markarian 335 (Mrk 335) with the Swift satellite discovered an X-ray flare beginning 2014 August 29. At the peak, the 0.5-5 keV count rate had increased from that in the low flux state by a factor of 10. A target of opportunity observation was triggered with NuSTAR, catching the decline of the flare on 2014 September 20. We present a joint analysis...
