A soft gamma repeater (SGR) is an astronomical object which emits large bursts of gamma-rays and X-rays at irregular intervals. It is conjectured that...

SGR 0526−66 (also known as PSR B0565−66) is a soft gamma repeater (SGR), located in the Super-Nova Remnant (SNR) 0526−66.1, otherwise known as N49, in...

class of phenomena, soft gamma repeaters, are associated with magnetars within our galaxy. This may be self-evident, since a gamma-ray burst in the Milky...
