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

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.
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.
