Coulomb and Hard Core Skyrmion Tails
Quantum Hall skyrmions are quantized solitons of a ferromagnetic O(3) σ−model. The reference, classical, solutions depend upon the interaction between the electrons and exhibit completely different asymptotic profiles for the physical Coulomb interaction than for the hard core interaction frequently used to generate variational wavefunctions. In this note we show, by means of numerical calculat...
متن کاملMagnetars as persistent hard X - ray sources : INTEGRAL discovery of a hard tail in SGR 1900 + 14 ⋆
the date of receipt and acceptance should be inserted later Abstract. Using 2.5 Ms of data obtained by the INTEGRAL satellite in 2003-2004, we discovered persistent hard X-ray emission from the soft gamma-ray repeater SGR 1900+14. Its 20-100 keV spectrum is well described by a steep power law with photon index Γ=3.1±0.5 and flux 1.5×10 −11 erg cm −2 s −1. Contrary to SGR 1806–20, the only other...
متن کاملAlfvén QPOs in Magnetars
We investigate torsional Alfvén oscillations of relativistic stars with a global dipole magnetic field, via two-dimensional numerical simulations. We find that a) there exist two families of quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs) with harmonics at integer multiples of the fundamental frequency, b) the lower-frequency QPO is related to the region of closed field lines, near the equator, while the hi...
متن کاملExplosive reconnection in magnetars
X-ray activity of Anomalous X-ray Pulsars and Soft Gamma-Ray Repeaters may result from the heating of their magnetic corona by direct currents dissipated by magnetic reconnection. We investigate the possibility that X-ray flares and bursts observed from AXPs and SGRs result from magnetospheric reconnection events initiated by development of tearing mode in magnetically-dominated relativistic pl...
متن کاملHard X-ray Emission from Magnetars A Case Study for Simbol X
The magnetar model involves an isolated neutron star with a very high magnetic field (B ∼ 1014−15 G), and is invoked to explain the emission processes of two classes of sources, the Anomalous X-ray Pulsars (AXPs) and the Soft Gamma-Ray Repeaters (SGRs). Five of them have been recently identified to be persistent sources in the hard X-ray band (20–200 keV). AXPs, in particular, present the harde...
