Brief description
We propose to continue observing the magnetars 1E 1547.0?5408 and PSR J1622?4950 weekly, to track their rotation, flux density, and polarisation. The revolutionary UWL capabilities promise new opportunities to disentangle still mysterious radio emission mechanisms in magnetars. This promise is supported by the recent follow up of XTE J1810?197, again a radio magnetar after 10 years dormant, and of the hot-off-the-press magnetar Swift J1818.0?1607, for which our observations with the UWL receiver are providing unique and tantalizing measurements of radio spectrum and polarisation.Available: 2021-03-03
