High-Quality Fast QPOs from Magnetars: An Electric Circuit Model
An interpretation of high-frequency (20-2400 Hz) fast quasiperiodic oscillations of magnetars in terms of an equivalent electric circuit is given. Observed periods and the very high quality of quasi-periodic oscillations are explained. The oscillation source is represented as a hot electron-positron...
