Using Imaging X-Ray polarimetry X-ray in NASA (Ixix) spacecraft, astronomers make detailed obsessions with a larger star.
Observations marked the first time the polarization of x-ray from a coupleNeutron stars with the most powerful magnetic field in the known universe, measured by an outburst or “activation phase.”
The explosion magnet has been observed in Needana known as 1e 1841-045, a neutron star located about 28,000 light years from the land of BAT Finalize Kes 73, shocked astronomers when it was broken in life on Aug 20, 2024.
“This is the first time we noticed the polarization of a magnetar in an active state, and it lets us wipe out the mechanisms that put into the active states,” Geans Institute in Microphysics Micheleki Rigoselli.
“It’s now interesting to follow 1e 184-045 once it returns to its quiescent status to monitor the evolution of polelimetric properties.”
HOW MANTARS HAVE BEEN THE UNIVERSE PEOPLE
Like all the neutron stars, the magnets start when the lives of the stars ten times the mass of the day or more intense gasoline withdrawal nuclear fusion. It concludes the production of external radiation pressuration that produces the cores of these stars, in millions of years, supporting them against the inner pressure of their own gravity.
As a result of this, the cores of many stars crushed a powerful rate, which created the shock waves that sent several stars that hurting the stars, creating cracked stars that hurt the stars like Kes 73.
The remainder is the core of the star, crushed by a width of about 12 miles (20 kilometers) but there is a mass between one and two times in the sun. This is causing material filling in Neutron Star That is more dense as if a teaspoon brought to the ground is brought to the ground, evaluate 10 million tons, almost equal to 85,000 adult blue whales.
Another consequence of collapse of stellar’s trunk is born a neutron star that the magnetic lines. The approaching of the magnetic field line is, the magnetic field is more powerful. As a result, Neutron stars have the strongest magnetic field in the known universe.
The magnetars have been removed from severe, with magnetic fields of up to 1 trillion times stronger than The magnnesphere of the earth. The magnetic environments of these stars don’t look like anything else found anywhere else The universe And the way is more than anything we can create in the world.
Astronomers can obtain signs about magnetic fields and the environments of the magnets by measuring the organized orientation or “polarization” of light released from them.
Magnars and strangers around them get worse when they are on an active part of outburstt. During these phases, the magnets can release as much as 1,000 times the energy they do if at a quiescent period.
However astronomers still do not have clear mechanisms that extend this energy output. Observations like this help to change that.
This team found is that x-ray from 1e 184-045 becomes more polarized at higher energy levels. However x-rays continue to the same polarization angle of total energy rampage.
They argue that this means the substances behind the empties if any connected. In addition, the supreme ingredient of energy, which is the more difficult and difficult to study, strongly influenced by magnetic fields in magnetar.
Team research has been published on Wednesday (May 28) of The letters in the Asstropysical Journal.
