We report a major outburst from the Anomalous X-ray Pulsar 1E 2259+586, in which over 80 X-ray bursts were detected in four hours using the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer. The bursts range in duration from 2 ms to 3 s and have fluences in the…

We present a statistical analysis of the X-ray bursts observed from the 2002 June 18 outburst of the Anomalous X-ray Pulsar (AXP) 1E 2259+586, observed with the Proportional Counter Array aboard the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer. We show that…

We present a statistical analysis of the X-ray bursts observed from the 2002 June 18 outburst of the Anomalous X-ray Pulsar (AXP) 1E 2259+586, observed with the Proportional Counter Array (PCA) aboard the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer. We…

We report on the 2004 June 29 burst detected from the direction of the Anomalous X-ray Pulsar (AXP) 1E 1048.1-5937 using the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer (RXTE). We find a simultaneous increase of ~3.5 times the quiescent value in the 2-10…

We present an analysis of five X-ray Multi-Mirror Mission (XMM) observations of the anomalous X-ray pulsar (AXP) 1E 2259+586 taken in 2004 and 2005 during its relaxation following its 2002 outburst. We compare these data with those of five…

We report here on the outburst onset and evolution of the new Soft Gamma Repeater SGR 0501+4516. We monitored the new SGR with XMM-Newton starting on 2008 August 23, one day after the source became burst-active, and continuing with 4 more…

We report the pulse timing analysis of \emph{Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer} (\emph{RXTE}) observations of the anomalous X-ray pulsar 1E 2259+586 from its 2002 outburst to October, 2010. Our objectives are to extend the work on the recovery…

We report on the timing and spectral properties of the soft X-ray emission from the magnetar 1E 2259+586 from January 2013, $\sim 8$ months after the detection of an anti-glitch, until September 2019, using the Neil Gehrels Swift and NICER…

Swift/BAT detected the first burst from 1E 1841-045 in May 2010 with intermittent burst activity recorded through at least July 2011. Here we present Swift and Fermi/GBM observations of this burst activity and search for correlated changes…

We present the results of a near-infrared monitoring program of the Anomalous X-ray Pulsar 1E 2259+586, performed at the Gemini Observatory. This program began three days after the pulsar's 2002 June outburst, and spans ~1.5 years. We find…

We present the broad-band noise structure of selected Anomalous X-Ray Pulsars (AXPs) and Soft Gamma Repeaters (SGRs) in the 2-60 keV energy band. We have analyzed Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer Proportional Counter Array archival light curves…

After three years of no unusual activity, Anomalous X-ray Pulsar 1E 1048.1-5937 reactivated in 2007 March. We report on the detection of a large glitch (Delta(nu)/nu =1.63(2)X~10^{-5}) on 2007 March 26 (MJD 54185.9), contemporaneous with…

The magnetar 1E~1547$-$5408 recently exhibited two periods of outburst, beginning on 2008 October 3 and 2009 January 22. Here we present an analysis of the persistent radiative evolution and a statistical study of the burst properties…

Anomalous X-ray pulsars (AXPs) and soft gamma-ray repeaters (SGRs) are believed to be manifestations of magnetars. Typically, AXPs exhibit higher X-ray luminosities, whereas SGRs are generally fainter and display significantly high…

After 6 years of quiescence, Anomalous X-ray Pulsar (AXP) 4U 0142+61 entered an active phase in 2006 March that lasted several months. During the active phase, several bursts were detected, and many aspects of the X-ray emission changed. We…

We present the timing and spectral analyses of the NICER, NuSTAR, and IXPE observations of the magnetar 1E 1841-045 covering 82 days following its August 2024 bursting activity as well as radio observations utilizing MeerKAT and Effelsberg.…

We report on NICER X-ray monitoring of the magnetar SGR 1830-0645 covering 223 days following its October 2020 outburst, as well as Chandra and radio observations. We present the most accurate spin ephemerides of the source so far:…

We present a summary of the long-term evolution of various properties of the five non-transient Anomalous X-ray Pulsars (AXPs) 1E 1841-045, RXS J170849.0-400910, 1E 2259+586, 4U 0142+61, and 1E 1048.1-5937, regularly monitored with RXTE…

Following our discovery of radio pulsations from the newly recognized Anomalous X-ray Pulsar (AXP) 1E 1547.0-5408, we initiated X-ray monitoring with the Swift X-ray Telescope, and obtained a single target-of-opportunity observation with…
