In this paper, the equilibrium configurations of rapid rotating compact stars and some gravitational effects are studied within the general relativity by use of the Harrison-Wheeler equation of state and by the self-consistent field method. Numerical calculations show that the equilibrium configuration of a rotating star is a spheroid. For large spin velocities, say, ω > 3.0 × 102 sec−1 the eccentricity and mass increase very rapidly as the angular velocity increases, for the critical angular velocity of the rotating star, the eccentricity is about 0.7, the increase in mass is about 10–35%. The difference of the gravitational redshifts at the surface of the star caused by rotation, and the difference of the light bending when the beam moves in the direction of rotation or in the opposite direction are obvious. 相似文献

We report on our analysis of two XMM-Newton observations of the Vela pulsar performed in December 2000 (total exposure time:
96.5 ks). We succeeded in resolving the pulsar spectrum from the surrounding bright nebular emission taking advantage both
of the accurate calibration of the EPIC point spread function and of the Chandra/HRC surface brightness map of the nebula.
This made it possible to assess to pulsar spectral shape disentangling its thermal and non-thermal components. Exploiting
the photon harvest, we have also been able to perform a phase-resolved study of the pulsar emission.

I review recent observational progress on Anomalous X-ray Pulsars, with an emphasis on timing, variability, and spectra. Highlighted
results include the recent timing and flux stabilization of the notoriously unstable AXP 1E 1048.1–5937, the remarkable glitches
seen in two AXPs, and the newly recognized variety of AXP variability types, including outbursts, bursts, flares, and pulse
profile changes. I also discuss recent discoveries regarding AXP spectra, including their surprising hard X-ray and far-infrared
emission, as well as the pulsed radio emission seen in one source. Much has been learned about these enigmatic objects over
the past few years, with the pace of discoveries remaining steady. However additional work on both observational and theoretical
fronts is needed before we have a comprehensive understanding of AXPs and their place in the zoo of manifestations of young
neutron stars.

All the confirmed Soft Gamma-ray Repeaters have been observed with the EPIC instrument on the XMM–Newton satellite. We review
the results obtained in these observations, providing the most accurate spectra on the persistent X-ray emission in the 1–10
keV range for these objects, and discuss them in the context of the magnetar interpretation.

Using direct measurements of photo-electric absorption edges, I derive the intrinsic spectra for the Anomalous X-ray Pulsars. In the past, the hydrogen column density, N H had been found by fitting the X-ray spectra with a variety of simple continuum models. Since different models fit equally well, with different values of N H, little is learned about the true column density or intrinsic spectra. Here, I measure the column densities in a model-independent way, and thus derive intrinsic spectra without first assuming what those spectra ought to look like. Particularly for the brightest source, 4U 0142+61, the column density can be determined accurately, and is a factor of 1.4 smaller that the typically N H quoted. With this new value, the new intrinsic spectrum can be investigated anew, and shows a slight hint of a feature around 13 Å. To be emphasised, this is an empirical method with the minimum of assumptions, as is appropriate for these beguiling sources, the behaviour of which has mystifies astronomers for over a decade. This paper summarises the methods and conclusions to be published in the Astrophysical Journal by Durant and Van Kerkwijk (2006; see astro-ph/0606604). 相似文献

A 6.4 keV emission line was discovered in an unusual burst from the soft gamma repeater SGR 1900+14 with the Rossi X-ray Timing
Explorer (RXTE). The line was detected in part of a complex multipeak precursor that preceded the unusual burst of 1998 August
29, i.e. two days after the giant flare of August 27 from the source. The origin of the line was not firmly identified and
two possible interpretations were equally plausible including (a) Kα fluorescence from a small iron rich material that was ejected to the magnetosphere during the August 27 flare, and (b) proton
or α-particle cyclotron resonance. If the iron scenario was correct, we expect to find evidence for the line during the intervening
interval between the flare and the August 29 burst, i.e. on August 28. Here we present the results of the August 28 burst
observation, taken with RXTE. We detect a total of seven bursts whose individual and joint spectra do not show evidence for
spectral lines. We also investigated a sample of nine bursts before and after the August 29 burst (from 1998 June to December)
that do not reveal evidence for a spectral line near 6.4 keV or elsewhere. These results disfavor the iron scenario and make
the proton/α-particle cyclotron resonance interpretation more plausible. The appearance of the emission line in part of a complex burst
and its absence from the studied sample indicate that the line is likely due to a transient phenomenon that may depend on
the burst morphology, energetics and the properties of the emission region.

INTEGRAL is operational since more than three years and producing high quality data that allows to detect fainter new hard
X-ray sources. The new sources, identified until now, are mostly active galactic nuclei and absorbed or transient high mass
X-ray binaries. TeV emission could be expected from the new high mass X-ray binaries accreting dense clumps of stellar wind.
INTEGRAL sources with TeV counterparts are discussed.

Thanks to INTEGRAL’s long exposures of the Galactic Plane, the two brightest Soft Gamma-Ray Repeaters, SGR 1806-20 and SGR
1900+14, have been monitored and studied in detail for the first time at hard-X/soft gamma rays.
This has produced a wealth of new scientific results, which we will review here. Since SGR 1806-20 was particularly active
during the last two years, more than 300 short bursts have been observed with INTEGRAL and their characteristics have been
studied with unprecedented sensitivity in the 15–200 keV range. A hardness-intensity anticorrelation within the bursts has
been discovered and the overall Number-Intensity distribution of the bursts has been determined. In addition, a particularly
active state, during which 100 bursts were emitted in 10 minutes, has been observed on October 5 2004, indicating that the
source activity was rapidly increasing. This eventually led to the Giant Flare of December 27th 2004, for which a possible
soft gamma-ray (>80 keV) early afterglow has been detected.
The deep observations allowed us to discover the persistent emission in hard X-rays (20–150 keV) from 1806-20 and 1900+14,
the latter being in a quiescent state, and to directly compare the spectral characteristics of all Magnetars (two SGRs and
three Anomalous X-ray Pulsars) detected with INTEGRAL.
