"Unprecedented Behavior: Mysterious Awakening of a Wobbling Magnetar"
The magnetar XTE J1810-197, which had been dormant for 10 years, has reawakened and is emitting unprecedented levels of circularly polarized light, suggesting the presence of superheated plasma above its magnetic pole. Additionally, the star appears to be wobbling or precessing, but this motion has unexpectedly damped over time. These unusual behaviors could provide new insights into the inner structure of neutron stars and the mechanisms behind fast radio bursts.
