We report and discuss preliminary results obtained from the analysis of a sample of X-ray pulsars observed by SAX and XTE. The sample includes GX1+4, a similar to 125 s period low-mass X-ray pulsar which shows extreme properties and spin-up/down behaviour; 4U 0142+614, a member of the recently identified class of "Anomalous" X-ray pulsars, SMC X-1, a short period (similar to 0.71 s) X-ray pulsar in a high-mass binary, and RX J0146.9+6121, the slowest spinning accreting neutron star currently known (similar to 25 min period).

Abstract
We report and discuss preliminary results obtained from the analysis of a sample of X-ray pulsars observed by SAX and XTE. The sample includes GX1+4, a similar to 125 s period low-mass X-ray pulsar which shows extreme properties and spin-up/down behaviour; 4U 0142+614, a member of the recently identified class of "Anomalous" X-ray pulsars, SMC X-1, a short period (similar to 0.71 s) X-ray pulsar in a high-mass binary, and RX J0146.9+6121, the slowest spinning accreting neutron star currently known (similar to 25 min period).File in questo prodotto:
