Magnetars are the most magnetic objects in the Universe, serving as unique laboratories to test physics under extreme magnetic conditions that cannot be replicated on Earth. They were discovered in the late 1970s through their powerful X-ray flares, and were subsequently identified as neutron stars characterized by steady and transient emission across the radio, infrared, optical, X-ray, and gamma-ray bands. In this chapter, we summarize the current state of our experimental and theoretical knowledge on magnetars, as well as briefly discussing their relationship with supernovae, gamma-ray bursts, fast radio bursts, and the transient multi-band sky at large.

  1. Three-dimensional simulations of accretion disks in pre-CE systems

    astro-ph.SR 2025-02 conditional novelty 6.0 of 10

    3D simulations predict a pre-common-envelope accretion disk around a 1.4 solar mass neutron star with mass ~5e-3 solar masses, radius ~40 solar radii, and scale height ~5 solar radii.

  2. Search for transient gamma-ray emission from magnetar flares using Fermi-LAT

    astro-ph.HE 2024-12 conditional novelty 4.0 of 10

    A Fermi-LAT search around 15 magnetar flares yields mostly null results, with one 4.4-sigma candidate from 1E 1048.1-5937 that may be galactic diffuse contamination.
