Anomalous X-ray pulsars (AXPs) are an observational manifestation of magnetars—young, isolated, highly magnetized neutron stars. These energetic X-ray pulsars are characterized by slow rotation periods of ~2–12 seconds and large magnetic fields of ~1013–1015 gauss (1 to 100 gigateslas). As of 2017, there were 12 confirmed and 2 candidate AXPs known. The identification of AXPs with magnetars was motivated by their similarity to soft gamma repeaters. (Wikipedia).
Carl Zeiss S-planar lens pt.2: resolution explained
In this video we take a closer look at the maximum imaging resolution of the Carl Zeiss S-Planar lens. Assuming it satisfies the Rayleigh limit, the maximum resolution of this lens should be around 723nm or 0.7um according to theory. Measurements show that the resolution is actually somewh
