IXPE data on magnetar 1E 1547.0-5408 show high linear polarization from a small hot spot whose phase-dependent angle is fit by a rotating vector model, with a marginal energy-dependent dip in polarization degree that may indicate vacuum resonance but does not constitute compelling evidence for biref

A second coherent radio burst spanning 704-4032 MHz with spectral index -2.18, 54% linear and 22% circular polarization, and an orthogonal polarization angle jump was detected from 2XMM J104608.7-594306, showing rare radio activity in sources thought to be radio-quiet.
Spectral fits to magnetar burst X-rays favor heavy nuclei (Z ~ 37) from the neutron star crust over light-ion compositions.
A first-order semi-analytical framework shows resonant Compton scattering can erase or add 90-degree polarization angle swings in magnetar soft X-ray spectra depending on magnetic twist and plasma drift velocity.
Equatorial twist geometry in the magnetar magnetosphere allows resonant Compton upscattering to reproduce the hard X-ray spectrum of 4U 0142+61 with optical depth limits from resonant cooling.
A search of repeating FRBs identifies RM flare candidates in FRB 20121102A, FRB 20201124A, and FRB 20180916B, suggesting such events may be common and tied to dynamic magneto-ionic environments.
New EP-FXT data on the 2024 outburst of magnetar 1E 1841-045 shows energy-dependent multi-peaked pulses, spectral hardening, BB temperature-pulse intensity correlations, and effective separation from supernova remnant emission.
Simulations of the BSD instrument for POLAR-2 show it can localize faint GRBs like GRB 170817A to about 1.5 degrees accuracy, meeting requirements for supporting GRB polarimetry.
Strong magnetic fields in compact stars induce Landau quantization and magnetic-moment couplings that change the equation of state and allow additional degrees of freedom such as hyperons, Delta resonances, and quark matter.
A pedagogical review of lattice QCD results on the thermodynamics of hot, dense, and magnetized QCD matter with an outlook on open questions.
