Ground state correlations and mean-field in O
We use the coupled cluster expansion ( method) to generate the
complete ground state correlations due to the NN interaction. Part of this
procedure is the calculation of the two-body G matrix inside the nucleus in
which it is being used. This formalism is being applied to in a
configuration space of 50 . The resulting ground state wave
function is used to calculate the binding energy and one- and two-body
densities for the ground state of .Comment: 9 pages, 9 figures, LaTe
The Discovery of an Anomalous X-ray Pulsar in the Supernova Remnant Kes 73
We report the discovery of pulsed X-ray emission from the compact source 1E
1841-045, using data obtained with the Advanced Satellite for Cosmology and
Astrophysics. The X-ray source is located in the center of the small-diameter
supernova remnant (SNR) Kes 73 and is very likely to be the compact
stellar-remnant of the supernova which formed Kes 73. The X-rays are pulsed
with a period of ~ 11.8 s, and a sinusoidal modulation of roughly 30 %. We
interpret this modulation to be the rotation period of an embedded neutron
star, and as such would be the longest spin period for an isolated neutron star
to-date. This is especially remarkable since the surrounding SNR is very young,
at ~ 2000 yr old. We suggest that the observed characteristics of this object
are best understood within the framework of a neutron star with an enormous
dipolar magnetic field, B ~ 8x10^14 G
RXTE Observations of the Anomalous Pulsar 4U 0142+61
We observed the anomalous X-ray pulsar 4U 0142+61 using the Proportional
Counter Array (PCA) aboard the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer (RXTE) in March
1996. The pulse frequency was measured as f = 0.11510039(3) Hz with an upper
limit of df/dt < 4 * 10^(-13) Hz/s upon the short term change in frequency over
the 4.6 day span of the observations. A compilation of all historical
measurements showed an overall spin-down trend with slope df/dt = (-3.0 +/-
0.1) * 10^(-14) Hz/s. Searches for orbital modulations in pulse arrival times
yielded an upper limit of a_x sin i < 0.26 lt-s (99% confidence) for the period
range 70 s to 2.5 days. These limits combined with previous optical limits and
evolutionary arguments suggest that 4U 0142+61 is probably not a member of a
binary system.Comment: 20 pages (LaTeX) including 7 figures. Accepted for publication in the
