DISCOVERY OF EXTENDED X-RAY EMISSION AROUND THE HIGHLY MAGNETIC RRAT J1819-1458
We report on the discovery of extended X-ray emission around the high magnetic field rotating radio transient J1819–1458. Using a 30 ks Chandra ACIS-S observation, we found significant evidence for extended X-ray emission with a peculiar shape: a compact region out to ∼55, and more diffuse emission extending out to …
