仝号 南京大学天文系

2 Outline The observations Scattering in pulsar magnetospere The results
Magnetars RRATs INSs Scattering in pulsar magnetospere The results

3

4 Radiation belt of a NS?

5 Anomalous X-ray pulsars
Lack of evidence of binary companions Luminosity larger than the spin down power Periods in the 5-12s range Spin-down time scales of 10^3-10^5yrs No long term variability (NO!)

6 AXPs (II) Soft X-ray spectrum Absence of radio emission
(In some cases) Associate with supernova remnants

7 Theory Magnetar 18颗

9 Consequences Magnetospheric plasma density 3 orders larger than the \rho_GJ Resonant cyclotron scattering (RCS)
