چکیده

We report on the observation of PSR 2334+61 in the soft X-ray domain with ROSAT. Assuming a power-law spectrum dN=dE / E with photon-index = 2 we derive an X-ray ux of f x = (7:10:2)10 14 erg s 1 cm 2 within the 0:1{2:4 keV energy range. An upper limit for the neutron star's surface temperature is put at T 1 s 1:2 10 6 K for a neutron star with a medium stii equation of state (FP-model with M = 1:4 M , R = 10:85 km). Slightly diierent values for T 1 s are computed for the various neutron star models available in the literature , reeecting diierences in the equation of state. No soft X-ray emission is detected from the supernova remnant G114.3+0.3 associated with PSR 2334+61.

HRI observation of the supernova remnant Kes 32 and the nearby radio pulsar PSR B 1610 − 50

We present the results of a deep ROSAT HRI observation of the supernova remnant Kes 32 and the possibly associated pulsar PSR B1610-50. The supernova remnant shows strongly energy dependent complex structures in a comparison with the ASCA GIS and ROSAT PSPC data with low foreground absorption (NH ∼ 5 × 1021 cm−2). The pulsar is not seen in the HRI image indicating a high absorbing column densit...

The Expansion of G11.2−0.3, a Radio Composite Supernova Remnant

We compare recent observations of the supernova remnant G11.2−0.3 taken with the VLA during 2001−02 with images from VLA archives (1984−85) to detect and measure the amount of expansion that has occurred during 17 years. The bright, circular outer shell shows a mean expansion of (0.71± 0.15)% and (0.50±0.17)%, from 20and 6-cm data, respectively, which corresponds to a rate of 0. 057±0. 012/yr a...

Rosat Observations of the Radio and Gamma-ray Pulsar Psr 1706-44 Rosat Observations of the Radio and Gamma-ray Pulsar Psr 1706-44

We report on the detection of PSR 1706-44 in two ROSAT-PSPC observations. The recorded source counts are unpulsed with a 2 pulsed fraction upper limit of 18%. Spectral analysis did not distinguish between black-body and power law models; however, we argue that the lack of pulsations and the similarity in the pulsar's spin parameters to those of the Vela pulsar favour a power law model dN=dE / E...

Discovery of an X-ray Synchrotron Nebula Associated with the Radio Pulsar PSR B1853+01 in the Supernova Remnant W44

We report the detection using data from the Advanced Satellite for Cosmology and Astrophysics (ASCA ) of a hard X-ray source in the vicinity of the radio pulsar PSR B1853+01, which is located within the supernova remnant (SNR) W44. PSR B1853+01, a 267 ms pulsar, has to date been detected only in the radio band. Previous observations at soft X-ray energies (e.g., with ROSAT HRI) have failed to d...

Discovery of Radio Pulsations from the X-ray Pulsar J0205+6449 in Supernova Remnant 3c58 with the Green Bank Telescope

We report the discovery with the 100 m Green Bank Telescope of 65 ms radio pulsations from the X-ray pulsar J0205+6449 at the center of supernova remnant 3C58, making this possibly the youngest radio pulsar known. From our observations at frequencies of 820 and 1375 MHz, the free electron column density to PSR J0205+6449 is found to be 140.7± 0.3 cm−3 pc. The barycentric pulsar period P and Ṗ d...
