Two magnetars: SGR 1627-41 and 1E 1547-5408
Abstract
We describe the results obtained with Target of Opportunity observations of the galactic sources SGR 1627-41 and 1E 1547-5408. These two transients show several similarities supporting the interpretation of Anomalous X-ray Pulsars and Soft Gamma-ray Repeaters as a single class of strongly magnetized neutron stars.
