Abstract:
1E1207.4-5209 may be the most exotic astronomical object. We propose a temporal and spectroscopic study of this peculiar X-ray source that was regarded as a "cooling" isolated NS. The previous Chandra/Newton observations reported "harmonic absorption" lines at 0.7, 1.4 and 2.1keV. Possible interpretations are electron cyclotron lines at B = 10^{10} G, ionic transition lines at 10^{12-13} G, and proton cyclotron lines at 10^{14} G. These are inconsistent each other. The highest B-field could suggest that the source is a member of "magnetars". Alternative explanation is the source might be a "strange" star with a lower mass. Suzaku observation of these line features should be the most powerful tool to investigate B field of this very peculiar object.
