Gamma-Ray Emission from X-Ray Binaries

We summarize the current observational picture regarding high-energy emission from Galactic X-ray binaries, reviewing the results of the Compton Gamma Ray Observatory mission. We speculate on the prospects for the GLAST era.

Optical and Infrared Emission from the Anomalous X-ray Pulsars and Soft Gamma-ray Repeaters

We show that the irradiated accretion disk model can account for all the optical and infrared observations of the anomalous X-ray pulsars in the persistent state. While placing an upper limit on the inner disk radii, and thus on the strength of the dipole component of the stellar magnetic field, the model fits do not constrain the outer disk radii. And while magnetar fields ( G) in higher multi...

X-ray emission from middle-aged pulsars

We present a simple, unified model which accounts for properties of the X-ray emission from the three middle-aged pulsars PSR 1055-52, PSR 0656+14 and PSR 0630+18 (Geminga). The X-ray radiation from these objects is pulsed more strongly at energies above a transition point around 0.5 keV. In addition, the phase of the pulses shifts by about 80 − 100 degrees around the same point. Geminga also h...

X-ray and Gamma-ray Emission from Pulsar Magnetospheres

For polar-cap models based on electromagnetic cascades induced by curvature radiation of beam particles we calculate broad-band high-energy spectra of pulsed emission expected for classical (∼ 10 G) and millisecond pulsars (∼ 10 G). The spectra are a superposition of curvature and synchrotron radiation components and most of their detailed features depend significantly on the magnetic field str...

X-Ray Emission of Gamma-Ray Bursts

X-ray emission can provide a crucial diagnostic of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). We calculate the X-ray and gamma-ray spectra of impulsive acceleration episodes related to GRB pulses. We use the synchrotron shock model (SSM) as a basis of our calculations. We show that the current data on soft-to-hard emission ratios of GRB pulse emission are in agreement with the SSM. In particular, GRB pulse emiss...
