We present the discovery of the first X-ray counterpart to a Rotating RAdio Transient (RRAT) source. RRAT J1819--1458 is a relatively highly magnetized (B $\sim 5\times10^{13}$ G) member of a new class of unusual pulsar-like objects…
We report on the search for optical bursts from J1819-1458, a member of the recently discovered Rotating Radio Transients (RRATs). J1819-1458 exhibits 3 millisecond bursts with a peak flux at 1.4 GHz of 3.6 Jy every ~3.4 minutes, implying…
We present new imaging and spectral analysis of the recently discovered extended X-ray emission around the high magnetic field rotating radio transient RRAT J1819-1458. We used two Chandra observations performed for this object in 2008 May…
X-ray emission from the enigmatic Rotating RAdio Transients (RRATs) offers a vital clue to understanding these objects and how they relate to the greater neutron star population. An X-ray counterpart to J1819-1458 is known, and its…
PSR J1819-1458 is a rotating radio transient (RRAT) source with an inferred surface dipole magnetic field strength of 5e13 G and a 4.26-s spin period. We present XMM-Newton observations of the X-ray counterpart of this source, CXOU…
We present new imaging and spectral analysis of the recently discovered extended X-ray emission around the high-magnetic-field rotating radio transient RRAT J1819-1458. We used two Chandra observations, taken on 2008 May 31 and 2011 May 28.…
PSR J1357$-$6429 is a young radio pulsar that was detected in X-rays and $\gamma$-rays. We present the high spatial resolution near-infrared imaging of the pulsar field in $J$, $H$ and $K_s$ bands obtained with the VLT/NaCo using the…
Rotating Radio Transients (RRATs) are neutron stars emitting sporadic radio pulses. The unique emission of RRATs has been proposed to resemble those of known pulsar types, such as extreme nulling pulsars or pulsars with giant pulses.…
At present, J1819-1458 is the only rotating radio transient (RRAT) detected in X-rays. We have studied the long-term evolution of this source in the fallback disc model. The model can reproduce the period, period derivative and X-ray…
The Rotating RAdio Transient (RRAT) J1819-1458 exhibits ~3 ms bursts in the radio every ~3 min, implying that it is visible for only ~1 per day. Assuming that the optical light behaves in a similar manner, long exposures of the field would…
We report on the discovery of extended X-ray emission around the high magnetic field Rotating Radio Transient J1819-1458. Using a 30ks Chandra ACIS-S observation, we found significant evidence for extended X-ray emission with a peculiar…
Rotating radio transients (RRATs) are a sub-class of pulsars characterized by sporadic emission and thus can generally only be studied by analysis of their single-pulses. Here we present a single-pulse analysis using 11 years of timing data…
Rotating radio transients (RRATs) are peculiar astronomical objects whose emission mechanism remains under investigation. In this paper, we present observations of three RRATs, J1538+2345, J1854+0306 and J1913+1330, observed with the…
We present the first blind interferometric detection and imaging of a millisecond radio transient with an observation of transient pulsar J0628+0909. We developed a special observing mode of the Karl G. Jansky Very Large Array (VLA) to…
Rotating Radio Transients (RRATs) are a relatively new subclass of pulsars that emit detectable radio bursts sporadically. We conducted an analysis of 10 RRATs observed using the Parkes telescope, with 8 of these observed via the…
Over the past several years, it has become apparent that some radio pulsars demonstrate significant variability in their single pulse amplitude distributions. The Rotating Radio Transients (RRATs), pulsars discovered through their single,…
