Magnetar-like activity has been observed in a large variety of neutron stars. PSR J1846-0258 is a young 327 ms radio-quiet pulsar with a large rotational power ($\sim 8 \times 10^{36}$ erg s$^{-1}$), and resides at the center of the…

The hard X-ray source IGRJ11215-5952, discovered with INTEGRAL during a brief outburst in 2005, has been proposed as a new member of the class of Supergiant Fast X-ray Transients. Analysing archival INTEGRAL observations of the source…

The ~800 yr-old pulsar J1846-0258 is a unique transition object between rotation-powered pulsars and magnetars: though behaving like a rotation-powered pulsar most of the time, in 2006 it exhibited a distinctly magnetar-like outburst…
