High resolution X-ray spectroscopy of young Neutron Stars — •Markus Hohle — AIU Jena, Germany

High resolution X-ray spectroscopy of young Neutron Stars using XMM RGS and Chandra HRC data unveiled previously unknown narrow absorption features. In some cases these features are likely not caused by the ISM, but may have their origins in the Neutron Star atmosphere (NSA). With these spectra we can probe current, highly magnetized NSA models. Although still challenging, a properly fitting model can yield the compactness of the Neutron Star, hence delivers precious constrains on the Equation of State.
