摘要:

我们提出了深XMM牛顿EPIC光谱和定时X射线观测附近的孤立射电毫秒脉冲星,PSR J 0030 +0451。它的发射光谱在0.1-10 keV范围内被发现是非常相似的最近的和最好的研究毫秒脉冲星,PSR J 0437 -4715,被很好地描述了一个占主导地位的热双温模型加上一个微弱的硬尾明显高于~2 keV。在0.3-2 keV波段的脉冲发射的特点是两个宽脉冲的脉冲分数~60- 70%,符合主要是热起源的X射线,只有当表面极冠辐射是从轻元素的气氛。热脉冲的建模允许我们把限制的中子星半径R>10.7(95%的置信度)和R>10.4公里(在99.9%的置信度)的M=1.4 M_太阳。

英文摘要:

We present deep XMM-Newton EPIC spectroscopic and timing X-ray observations of the nearby solitary radio millisecond pulsar, PSR J0030+0451. Its emission spectrum in the 0.1-10 keV range is found to be remarkably similar to that of the nearest and best studied millisecond pulsar, PSR J0437-4715, being well described by a predominantly thermal two-temperature model plus a faint hard tail evident above ~2 keV. The pulsed emission in the 0.3-2 keV band is characterized by two broad pulses with pulsed fraction ~60-70%, consistent with a mostly thermal origin of the X-rays only if the surface polar cap radiation is from a light-element atmosphere. Modeling of the thermal pulses permits us to place constraints on the neutron star radius of R>10.7 (95% confidence) and R>10.4 km (at 99.9% confidence) for M=1.4 M_sun.
