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 report the ASCA results of the bursting X-ray pulsar \gro, which was observed in February 1996 and March 1997. The source flux in the 2--10 keV band was $2.0\times10^{-8}$ erg/sec/cm$^2$ in 1996 and $5.0\times10^{-9}$ erg/sec/cm$^2$ in…
